This agency is out of control if leadership is no longer checking violations of constitutional rights. Congress absolutely must step in before more people are kidnapped/killed.
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

This isn’t Moscow or Beijing. It’s Chicago. Masked federal agents grabbed U.S. citizens protesting ICE and threw them into an unmarked van.
“Who are you? Where are you taking them?” people shouted. “You are kidnapping them!”

Yes, but has the Times yet featured the rogue’s gallery of Republicans who are participants in ending democracy in this country?
There’s been lots of discussion of the article, but I think the paper-copy visual is effective.
Individual photos of each Dem Senator, each one captioned, “Senator [Name], what will you do?”

Well, then, Shady, I suppose it’s Ok for the military of other countries to kill Americans who are actively engaged in poisoning their communities via reckless resource extraction processes in a bid to maximise profits.

In a court filing, Citibank disclosed that it had been directed by the FBI to freeze the bank accounts of these groups.

Hey media, and hell, dems too... Stop saying DOGE is cutting programs and firing people. Congress controls the "purse" Congress controls funding. Congress is run by Republicans. So Republicans are cutting funding and firing everyone. Give them the credit they deserve.

Federal marshals forced entry into the US African Development Foundation and escorted Musk staffers inside, after agency employees resisted their entry. Once inside, they changed the federal agency’s locks. Musk staffers were seen plugging in an external hard drive and going through everything.
