Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved.
DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.

EXCLUSIVE: Terez Metry was 13 when her family fled to Tennessee from Egypt in 2011. Then, they left her behind. She only recently discovered she had an order of removal from 2011. But she was following the legal path to citizenship. On Monday, at a routine DHS meeting, Metry was detained.

ICE isn’t out of Minnesota. Enforcement hasn’t stopped; in many places it’s intensified. What changed wasn’t the raids, it was the coverage. As pressure grew, cameras shifted and Democrats redirected the conversation. But ICE activity in Minnesota is still very real & ongoing. #FuckICE #AbolishICE

It’s harrowing that the demands have already shifted from “body cams” to “body cams—but don’t let ICE use them to find more targets for violence.”
It’s a crystal clear sign that ICE will not accept reforms in good faith and will instead weaponize them to cause even more harm.

The act is bad but the amount of republicans without passports or birth certificates or a paper trail for maiden name changes is massive and I do not think they thought their cunning plan all the way through

Court reform must end the ability of Justices to choose their replacements with strategic retirements
Even if this isn’t true, in the unlikely scenario Dems retake the Senate in November you better believe he’s quitting and a replacement is being rammed through in a matter of weeks.
My weekly newsletter is up. Along with the usual assortment of fascism and sadness that is this country’s news cycle, I think Sam Alito just shadow dropped his retirement announcement with his book launch.

VA Gov. Spanberger (moderate, was in CIA) and NYC Mayor Mamdani (left, is in DSA) both taking steps to block local law enforcement from helping ICE as it violently violates people's rights is a good example of how the relevant divide in the Dem coalition isn't center-left, it's fight-don't fight.
