ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.

Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.

"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Here’s a gift link to this stunner Washpost story, quoting the 60 Minutes correspondent on the CECOT story, who accuses Bari Weiss of spiking the piece all because the Trump Administration wouldn’t comment.

“Government silence is a statement, not a VETO.”

Trump wants the MMR split. Kennedy rewrote CDC vaccine–autism language. Sen. Ron Johnson says it’s “time to apologize to Dr. Wakefield.”

Across MAHA/MAGA media, the movement has fully adopted the anti-vaxx fiction of Wakefield as a martyr and is elevating him again.

A close look at the transformation of ICE into the biggest enforcement agency in the US.
Note Garrett’s point about chain of command - the FBI, DEA, police etc have traditions of independence, legal cultures.
Dept of Homeland Security is run by a cabinet secretary for the President.
I spent years reporting on the wave of criminality and corruption that ate the Border Patrol away from the inside after its last hiring surge. Now Congress just approved even doing worse to ICE. A look, specifically, at what will go wrong: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/four-fears...

This is continued journalistic malpractice from the @startribune.com normalizing a violent white male suspect. He owned a private security company called Praetorian Guard, traveled overseas to preach against abortion and LGBTQ+ people, and attended a bible college that preaches "violent prayer."
