Perfect example proving that Trump’s racist policies were never actually about illegal immigration. It has always been about color.
They are now targeting people who did everything by the book and were literally at the ceremony where they were going to become citizens...

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.

If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

Trump's takeover of DC is just one more symptom of America's slide into authoritarianism. Unfortunately those with the most to lose are often the least equipped to leave.

I can’t even believe this needs to be said. Completely unconstitutional and illegal for any American to be sent to a Salvadoran torture prison. Authoritarianism at its worst.

It is about time judges started giving consequences for agents defying the law.
A Boston Municipal Court Judge has referred an ICE Agent for a Criminal Contempt of Court prosecution after attempting to detain a Defendant during his trial.

I completely agree. Even if you disagree you should fight for the freedom to speak out.
I don't care what side of the Israel-Palestine conflict your sympathies lie on, snatching up people with a valid student visa for the crime of writing an OpEd is naked fascism and if you don't oppose this you are a threat to this country's most basic values
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.
