I testified Friday before Gov. Pritzker's commission studying abuses of ICE and CBP and tried to explain how the agencies went so far off track. It's actually way worse than I ever realized. Please read and share my testimony as Congress considers reform: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...
Accountability for ICE and CBP
However bad you think the corruption and misconduct at ICE and CBP is — the reality is far far worse.

Yes, some of the things that the EU regulates don't exist in the US.
But CSAM production and dissemination is illegal in both jurisdictions. Say that ELon is trying to monetize child sexual abuse and all of a sudden it's simply about basic crime.

Here's an example of why the US frame of "escalation" is so stupid.
One of the allegations France is reportedly investigating is CSAM dissemination. That's a straight up crime, in the US and the EU. Say as much.
And explain what the DSA fine is--it's about fraud.

Trump reversed decades of national security objections to selling advanced AI chips to UAE. National security experts were alarmed.
But there was a secret. Before the deal, UAE had sent $187M to the Trumps and $31M to the Witkoffs in secret payments.
Mind blowing corruption.

They're afraid.
One told me she resents how her undocumented coworkers spend their days cleaning the rooms of agents who are “hunting down their family members.”
