I'd love to see a reporter ask rank-and-file ICE agents if they understand that the administration is clearly hoping one of them gets killed out there.

The White House surely wants to see one of these ICE crackdowns lead to violent pushback. They've got untrained unqualified goons acting with impunity. It seems deliberately designed to provoke an incident.
But do the goons get this? Do they know the big plan is to get a couple of them killed?

Susan Tincher, a 55-year-old American citizen, said agents told her in the truck that if she didn’t watch herself “they were going to pull me over to the side of the road and give me this OC,” law enforcement shorthand for pepper spray.

In October, a poll showed Americans opposed it by a 2-to-1 ratio, and I'd imagine the numbers have only gotten worse since then.

NEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at all - no prior convictions (no matter how minor) and no pending criminal charges.

When I talk about the NYT as a chronicle of power without any true moral center, this is the kind of shit I mean
This bizarre and dangerous claim violates literally every section of our Constitution, which was built by geniuses explicitly to limit individual power.
Those entrusted with enforcing our Constitution have a duty to every Conservative and Liberal American. A duty to act. Now.

To keep track of it all, we thought we’d thread all the House reps that have committed to impeaching Kristi Noem. The first was @robinkelly.house.gov
I refuse to stay silent while Secretary Noem breaks the rule of law and terrorizes our communities. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment against her for violating the public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

Donald Trump wasn’t lying when he said he could get away with shooting someone in the street in broad daylight.
He just forgot to specify if it would be murder for hire.

SAVE all videos & photos from today. They will be valuable to prove the ICE agent --- who had time to move & re-position himself to the side of the victim's car to shoot into the driver's side window --- was not in reasonable fear of imminent serious physical injury or death.
