ICE not allowing agents to have unsupervised copies of ICE policies or to take any notes is an admission by ICE that it knows the policies are illegal.

Rep. Summer Lee is spot on.
“The DOJ has been required to turn over the full Epstein files since August.
They handed over one percent. Heavily redacted.
Now that same subpoena is being used to hold the Clintons in contempt for what the DOJ itself is violating.”

With the High Seas Treaty now in force, there’s a real opportunity to protect this fragile ecosystem before industrial pressures grow.
Here's why this matters AND what’s at stake. 👇
