You are ready to take action against ICE. You are ready because 32 people died in ICE detention in 2025. You are ready because you’ve seen the inhumane conditions of those kept at 31 Hopkins Plaza. Be...

We’ve made it easy to email your senators and demand they reject any DHS budget that puts more money into Trump’s deadly deportation machine. With a vote expected later this week, it’s extra important for your senators to hear from you right now.

Explosive WaPo article
Since July, DHS has fired shots at 16 people; has hit 10 , including 4 US citizens. 10 victims charged, but 4 cases later dismissed. No agents charged.

Trump aides declared 16 DHS shootings since July justified before probes completed
The Trump administration’s rush to defend the officers and accuse the victims of attacking them has sparked widespread outrage and demands for accountability.

After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.
Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”

If you didn't catch this segment of @maddow.bsky.social's tonight, I recommend you watch the whole thing. We're seeing both utterly sadistic mass scale horror alongside incredibly inspiring mass displays of humanity. The regime is weak. The people will win.
IMMORAL…

This drawing was made by one of the 5 year old El Gamal twins. It shows children behind bars with the caption, “I’m 5 years old.”

An immigration judge denied them bond, citing “insufficient assets.” These children could remain in detention for years while their case is appealed.

Do not stop pushing. When regimes back off a crackdown is when they tend to fall. Now is the moment to restore the rule of law.
BREAKING Greg Bovino has been removed as Border Patrol "commander at large" and will return to El Centro Calif, where he is expected to retire soon. A stunning turnaround after Pretti killing. Bovino's traveling blue city crackdown is over www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Six cowardly ICE agents held down Alex Pretti and killed him.

They killed one of our fellow Americans.

This is Donald Trump’s America.

The violence and intimidation ICE has brought to our communities must end now. And let me be clear: not a penny more for ICE.

The real “domestic terrorists” are in the White House.

The victim, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, was reportedly a law abiding US citizen & an ICU nurse at the VA. He was licensed to carry a firearm.

Trump & Miller are responsible for his killing & are now lying to the American people.
Another brutal killing by Trump’s ICE agents.

Trump, Vance, Noem, Miller, & the whole morally depraved crew have blood on their hands. These killings are happening at their direction. They must be held accountable.

Congress must cut-off funding for these heinous acts NOW!

The auditor of the state of Ohio, who is running to be the state's next attorney general, wrote an oped this morning that the Columbus Dispatch published on how Renee Good is to blame for her death.

The subheadline alone is already chilling.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

It’s not enough to say Abolish ICE. It’s not enough to vote no on ICE funding. It’s not enough to confront Kristi Noem or Greg Bovino with Stern Words.

If you are a leader, what are you doing to protect your community? How are you using your power, privilege, and position to confront this threat?

Rosa DeLauro was elected to Congress in 1990 and has been virtually unopposed ever since. This year she finally has a Democratic primary opponent, who also happens to be on Bluesky. I hope @andrewricect3.bsky.social makes the most of this opportunity. The primary is in August.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.
