An under-appreciated piece of this story is that one of the more liberal members of Congress met with clergy to discuss ICE/DHS, and she found herself to the *right* of several faith leaders whose support for abolishing ICE was so intense that they got into a genuine spat with her over it.

Granted…
“Renee Goodman [sic], Alex Pretti – there are no words,” DeLauro said.

“You said there were no words after the murder of those two individuals,” said Rev. Jack Perkins Davidson. “I think the words are ‘Abolish ICE.’”

The fact that this kid can't just enjoy being a 5-year-old and playing Gray Duck is so fucking infuriating.
I don't know what happens next, but Liam and his family are not being deported today.

They’re trying to run the Kilmar Abrego Garcia playbook with a five year old boy in a bunny hat because nobody can find peace if they embarrass the Trump administration publicly. Normal people didn’t like it with Garcia and they really aren’t going to like it for Liam.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley.

Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo.

Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles.

Get them out!

We've paid 32 families rent today.

Thank you to the random one of you who paid like half of those.
I said we were done asking for rent money. But today I heard the horrifying fact that there are zero family shelter beds in the entire state of Minnesota. So we are going to try something new.

We are going to do peer to peer funding. You take on urgent‼️ funding for one family. You send to them.

Loving the energy, Bill, but you have yet again misspelled "abolish".
Democrats should defund and restrain ICE to the degree possible. And they should insist on this condition at least: No ICE (or Border Patrol) anywhere near the polls or early voting election locations this fall.

i don't particularly disagree with a lot of the critiques of anarchist activism by liberals but I bristle when they act as if their best practices are any wiser. we're here because none of us figured out how to avoid being here.

everyone should have some goddamn humility.

Dear Rep. Mann,
With districts this large, representation and oversight suffer. Expanding the House would make Congress more responsive, accountable, and closer to the people it serves. Please explain why you oppose this common-sense reform.
Sincerely,

I am asking you to contact my Congressman, Tracey Mann, on February 2, 2026 to ask him why he currently doesn't support Uncapping the House.

These are Minnesotans. We want them to come back. We want this to be a place they would want to return to.
Just visited with Liam and his father at Dilley detention center. I demanded his release and told him how much his family, his school, and our country loves him and is praying for him.

this is a horrific atrocity, and it calls for more than "reform."
Anadith Danay Reyes Álvarez died in government custody.

She had sickle cell and congenital heart disease but couldn’t access timely and adequate medical care.

We need to reform immigration detention.

My gosh. Alex Pretti was notifying neighbors that Trump and Vance's agents were chasing a family. A mob of agents then tackled him and broke his rib.

He thought he was going to die.

Then the very next week, he came back out to support his neighbors.

And a mob of agents killed him.

I think this is a very good point, but it would totally go over my head if I didn't know what the word "metropole" meant.
I think the issue this is getting at is that the US colonial frontier was inside the borders of the metropole, which meant that the distinction between internal civilian policing and colonial pacification that a lot of states tried to rigorously maintain has always been weak to nonexistent.
if I’m being honest, I’ve never really liked the “descendants of slave catchers” narrative about cops/ICE/etc., because even shaky historical analysis aside, it ignores relatively recent systemic issues with policing and makes it out to be some Darwinian origin story of “policus Americanus”

If you’re Dems, please coalesce around Stephen Miller not having a job anymore.
Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:

DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools

"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:

I'm reading about how Republicans in my state are trying to distance themselves from current ICE actions, but still somehow preserve ICE and blame Walz.

To hell with that noise. This is all on Trump and his allies. Fully disown ICE and it's cruelty, or GTFO.
