It’s very clear Trump plans to use ICE and DHS to quell protests after he interferes/cancels the 2026 election. Like, that is obviously where this is all going. This plan is very obvious and in the open. The only people who don’t get it are sitting in an elected office somewhere.
Our leader this week. "Recently, only 5% of those detained have been people convicted of violent crimes. Instead ICE’s brutal means indicate ends that are darker than immigration-control...ICE and its leaders are trampling the constitution." www.economist.com/leaders/2026...
ICE’s impunity is a formula for more violence
Is America’s president building his own paramilitary militia?

This is not a "possibility," it is very, very obviously what's currently happening. The only reason people in power want to view it as a possibility rather than an ongoing fact is that they are scared of the implications. If it's the latter, they have to *do* something. History calls. It's scary!

ICE needs to be DISMANTLED NOW. Unconditionally. Not “Reigned In” (Sorry Tina Smith), not Reformed. ICE is an agency that is operating outside the law and murdering people. ICE is not redeemable. Alex & Renee deserve Justice. END ICE.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.
Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.
Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

The argument against ICE isn't an especially difficult one to make politically in this moment. The issue is that people who substantively disagree with abolishing ICE prefer having a proxy fight about strategy to discussing that stance. Many such cases.

We are a full year into the AI revolution and all they can produce is revenge porn and grocery lists.
I’m tired of being talked down to by people like this. They are doing the Elon Musk Mars In 2 Years bit but have tied the entire U.S. economy to a bespoke compliment generator. It’s time to start talking about these AI mutants like delusional babies.
“There will be more than enough jobs for the citizens of your nation, esp. those with vocational training,” said Karp. “I do think these trends really do make it hard to imagine why we should have large-scale immigration unless you have a very specialized skill.”

The Republican Party is a threat to world security. ICE agents at home, threats to countries in South America, threats to Canada, Mexico and Europe, attempting to extort France, surveillance at home. Just a cartoon level of villainy which the Republican Party has supported every step of the way.
