And I genuinely, truly and non-trollingly, understand concerns about threats to officers in question, but in every single other law enforcement shooting I've covered, authorities name the individual(s) involved. This is just the baseline of public accountability.

New video shows ICE agents detaining a US citizen legal observer in Minneapolis.

The agents smashed his car window, dragged him out, and placed a knee on his neck.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks.

IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

Congress should pass a law requiring agents to show their faces, identify themselves, & wear their badges. It’s not agent safety we have to worry about these days.

End so-called Kavanaugh stops & admin warrant-based forced entry into homes too. Let’s have a Constitution.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

This is a true story.

At the end of 2019, I was in a foreclosure courtroom waiting for the call the start. I was legal director of a legal aid clinic then, and so I was the only lawyer representing homeowners in a courtroom filled with lawyers representing banks.

I helped build a government AI system. DOGE fired me, rolled the AI out to the whole agency, and implied the AI can do my job and the jobs of the others they've fired.

It can't. But, what DOGE accidentally revealed about themselves in the process is fascinating. 🧵

Remember: whatever happens from here on out the Dems who vote for this GOP budget are complicit. Because they willingly surrendered the power they had to stop it.

The idea that allowing what’s been happening the last two months to continue is a way to avoid “blame” is madness

The clock is ticking down on a crucial but little-noticed part of President Trump’s first round of executive orders — the one tasking the secretaries of the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security to submit a joint report recommending “whether to invoke the Insurrection Act.”
Is Trump preparing to invoke the Insurrection Act? Signs are pointing that way
A joint Department of Defense and Homeland Security report will soon recommend whether or not to invoke the Insurrection Act over illegal migration.

The state of the union is that the President is spitting in the face of the law.

He is letting an unelected billionaire fire cancer researchers and wreck federal agencies like the Social Security Administration at will.
