this reminds me of when Biden correctly said in 2020 that one in every thousand black people had died of Covid and the press acted like he was just being a drama queen
One of every thousand American residents has been taken into custody by ICE in the last year.
A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists.

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.
“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

It’s not too late for states and Congress to stop Trump from subverting the midterms
With only nine months before the midterm elections, Trump is plotting to prevent Democrats from taking control of Congress.

Uh...WTF?
$30B is from the so-called "Big Beautiful Bill," which passed with 0 Democratic votes. As for the supposed $11B, I googled "ICE+$11 billion" and the only hits I got were to that Semler guy, who wrote it in Jacobin
Maybe @kibblesmith.com should be sad & disgusted at falling for bullshit

This Is How Trump Prepares America to Reject an Election
He’s already telling his supporters the system is rigged, floating unconstitutional ideas, and priming them for chaos if Republicans lose.

As a reminder:
Senate was 48 Dems, 2 Independents who caucused with Dems and 50Rs. Required VP Harris as a tie breaker.
House started at 221 D, 211 R and 2 vacancies.
Razor thin majorities but passed huge pieces of legislation.

I’ve seen people comment that Osoff voted for the Laken Riley act. YMMV, but I personally view OBBBA as the defining ICE vote—which Dems unanimously opposed. I personally view the Laken Riley in context of it passing within weeks of Dems just getting their electoral asses WHOOPD on immigration…
SEN. OSSOFF: “.. why are roving gangs of masked men — who look like they couldn’t pass the Army physical exam — dressed up like pretend Delta Force operators, on our streets, demanding papers, dragging people from their cars, and shooting people to death?”
