Multiple U.S. citizens have been arrested during ICE operations.

The forcefulness, lack of communication, and unlawful practices displayed by federal agents will not be tolerated in Minnesota.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

I hope the Dems realize that if they extend the ACA subsidies, and take no other steps, they are giving carte blanche to the biggest insurance companies and major hospital systems to find new ways to game the system and increase costs.

It seems that Uber is giving our info to ICE, and is fine with ICE using Uber stickers on their cars to trick is.

I sure ain't using Uber again.
There were reports over the summer of people being kidnapped when they answered the door for their Uber eats order. Logically, ice had to know the customer and their delivery time to make that effective. I cancelled my account when it was shared then.

This is still VERY illegal. The Trump admin says anyone who pays $1 million will be deemed to have "exceptional business ability" and become eligible for an employment-based immigrant visa.

But there's nothing stopping someone from just getting a loan or using parents' money.
