One thing I’ll remember most about this time in history is that it could’ve all been stopped, but members of Congress were too fucking spineless to do it

ICE is saying they can enter your home without a warrant.
Just a reminder that the 4th amendment says you can use the 2nd amendment to stop that from happening.

So when ATF asserts the power some day to enter homes to look for illegal firearms you’ll be fine with that too I guess?
Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

Bipartisan negotiators released a DHS funding bill that does not significantly reduce ICE and CBP’s funding nor rein in the agencies’ abuses of power.
Make no mistake: Any Democrat who votes for this bill is complicit in Trump’s campaign of terror.
Grow a spine and vote no.

Everyone needs to start seriously looking at the secrecy of these ICE Detainment Centers. Chris Murphy was just denied access to the center in Tx. At this time they are really starting to look a lot like the concentration camps of old.

I spent the morning at the San Antonio immigration court. It’s out of control.
Crawling with ICE - arresting legal immigrants showing up for court appearances.
I asked one officer who they are prioritizing. His answer: everyone.
I need to share with you what I saw.

Wonder how many people that work at Palantir are immigrants. Since the company is based in Europe, are the Americans “really immigrants” ?
“There will be more than enough jobs for the citizens of your nation, esp. those with vocational training,” said Karp. “I do think these trends really do make it hard to imagine why we should have large-scale immigration unless you have a very specialized skill.”

Trump said that without U.S. consumers buying their goods, most other countries’ economies would crash. But if those countries dump U.S. dollars, their own consumers would be able to afford those goods. Empty shelves and sky-high prices and interest rates would crash our economy.

In 2025, 32 people died in the custody of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). That figure was the largest in more than 2 decades and tied for the highest number of deaths among ICE’s detainee population ever.
2026 is only 3 weeks old, and at least 6 people have died in ICE custody.

Entire Democratic congress needs to take this position
This bill does nothing to lower health care costs.
This bill doesn't restrict Trump’s military adventurism in Venezuela and Greenland.
This bill doesn't halt ICE’s dangerous abuses of power and prevent ICE’s chaos in every American city.
I will vote NO on this budget deal.
