ICE is devolving under pressure.
And that's from a baseline of thuggish secret police.
With pressure amounting to people exercising First Amendment rights to tell them to stop unjustified violence, and following/observing/recording them as they do.
It's rotten to the core and will only get worse.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.
The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Carney: The US is now too hostile, too volatile, too untrustworthy to be a reliable partner. We must form new international structures.
Trump: Call me hostile and volatile, will ya? How 'bout some big tariffs that hurt both of us and undo previous talks. Who's unreliable now! Wait, where you going?

ICE attacked an observer after they tailed a group of clergy on a spiritual pilgrimage.
Our digital producer @sam.vp just so happened to be with the clergy on their journey. He spoke with the observer who was attacked and others who witnessed the assault.

Diese Geschichte verdient viel Aufmerksamkeit:

Die Anzeigenstatistik 2024 zeige eine „massive Zunahme der Jugendkriminalität“, sagte Innenminister Karner im April. Doch seine Grafik zeigte andere Zahlen als Daten des BMI auf data.gv.at. Nach @profil.at -Anfrage löscht das BMI die data.gv.at -Tabellen. Was sagt das BMI dazu? shorturl.at/LZSxK

Zeigt gut, warum die Übernahme von FPÖ-Positionen problematisch ist.
1) weil es die Grenzen weiter verschiebt und FPÖ-Politik normalisiert
2) weil es der FPÖ nie weit genug geht und sie extremere Forderungen stellt
Ein Teufelskreis, immer auf Kosten der Menschenrechte und der liberalen Demokratie.

You gotta admit that when a teenage asylum seeker with no criminal record, so motivated that he graduated from high school at 16 and is now working his way through college, is in a minor car accident that’s a great opportunity to kidnap him
ICE agents in Maine kidnapped a college student after a minor car crash. They ran his plates, shoved him into a car, and shipped him down to Burlington, Massachusetts. ICE agents refused to let him call a lawyer.

I keep thinking about the number of people that have to be involved to kidnap a small child, transport him to one facility or another, then an airport, then a plane, then another facility. Did no one on that chain stop and say hey what the fuck?
If only they had had time for the "don't kidnap 5-year-olds and send them to detention centers 1000 miles away from their families" training module
