Izzy went down to the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Los Angeles to observe Border Patrol, ICE, and HSI drop off detainees and paperwork. Here is a breakdown of this daily routine during immigration raids.

If the DHS bill does become law Dem leaders will have to explain to us what they intend to do to try to get ICE to follow the law and stop terrorizing us. Waiting for us to gain back power a year from now is not a sufficient answer.

206 House Democrats voted to shut down DHS today. 7 Democrats voted to fund it.

That’s like 3% of democrats. Easily fixable. No need to abandon the party over 3%.

However, 100% of ICE sucks. Abolish ICE.

This isn’t enforcement. It’s brutality. No more masks. No more arrests without real warrants. No more secret police.
Masked agents in police vests #detained Juan Sebastian Carvajal-Munoz, a civil engineer from Colombia employed by an engineering consulting company, in Portland Thursday. Carvajal-Munoz earned a master’s degree from the University of #Maine, and colleagues said he was in the country on a work visa.

Good question.

1) Covering substantive issues is harder than repeating press releases and reading the crime blotter

2) Challenging power and calling out BS makes powerful people angry

3) There is an audience for the old 'litany of tragedy' local news model of gawking at others' misfortune
Again, I ask: Why can't local news elsewhere be this factual and informative instead of fluff stories and "live" shots from the scene where some horrific crime happened more than a day ago?

People in Colorado have no idea how fortunate they are.

This doesn’t stop us in Minnesota. Why would you think that ICE would? We may be scared from time to time, but we will not give in. We will prevail.

I've read and listened to a bunch of analysis about this poll—which ~everybody considers the best—and just how terrible it is for Trump.

That racial/youth realignment? Gone. He's got atrocious numbers on every front. And the enthusiasm among MAGA is a lot weaker the further into data you go.
“The major demographic shifts of the last election have snapped back. In today’s poll, Mr. Trump’s approval rating by demographic group looks almost exactly as it did in Times/Siena polling in the run-up to his defeat in the 2020 presidential election.” Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/u...

Always, always, always projection.
Republicans spent the entire hearing accusing Jack Smith of prosecuting Trump for political reasons and falsely claiming he was being directed by Biden and Garland. Ironically, while they were doing that, Trump was telling Bondi on Truth Social that she should prosecute Smith.

AOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doors—they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.

I know I don't have a ton of media followers, but I'll put this out there anyway: if you need someone to comment/offer context on the removal of the slavery exhibit at the President's House site in Philly, get in touch. I just finished an entire book on Americans' fight over Washington and slavery.

Here's one of the panels that Trump just removed from the President's House site in Philadelphia. (I took this picture of it last March. A couple of weeks later I led a walking tour that included the site.) Does this information "disparage" the United States?

The ICE administrative warrant memo gives its officers authority greater than the general warrants used by the English that the 4th Amendment was designed to prevent. It allows law enforcement to enter homes based on "warrants" that they themselves approve, removing any external check.
