New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

Two of Trump's targets (Comey and James) have already been charged by the DoJ. Corruption in plain sight.

More than 5,000 federal employees have received layoff notices. We’re working to ensure that the administration isn’t using state voter rolls to target registered Democrats for termination. More details soon.

ICE isn’t hiring the best people

It’s getting harder and harder to tell “law enforcement” from the criminals they claim to protect us from.

Little man Johnson does not need ONE democratic vote to pass a standalone bill to pay our military.

These are disgusting, despicable, human beings.

The editors of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today.

The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly.

We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

When we talk about new nonviolent tactics emerging and how every action of the regime gives us a chance to be creative, adaptive, and get control of the narrative: the protestors at the Portland ICE facility are giving a master class right now.

Someone showed up with a cart of inflatables. The protest is now a dance party outside the PDX ICE facility. Federal police have mostly stood back but did unleash a toxin into the air @nbcnews.com

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

Another mass shooting today: Leland, MS—4 dead, 12 injured at a homecoming celebration. Montgomery, AL—2 dead, 12 injured downtown after a college football game. When will they stop treating this as 'normal'?

ICE abducted a 15-year-old autistic boy during a bathroom break and kept him hidden for nearly a week.
His mother thought he was missing. Even local police couldn’t find him because ICE never told anyone they had him.

He was selling fruit with his mom when he asked to use the restroom.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

I could have sworn part of what was “wrong with this country” is people getting participation medals.

And yet, Buddy Carter wants to give one to President Yamtits.
