We have a president who is spending his Christmas bombing people and wishing a “MERRY CHRISTMAS to all, including the dead terrorists” and calling people scum and sleazebags.
Please, GOP, make this stop. This is insane. Can you just admit that this is nuts and has to end? What is it going to take??

A grandmother will spend Christmas with her family after ICE held her for nearly five months. She’s had a green card for 30+ years and lived in the U.S. since childhood. Her detention ended only after public and congressional pressure.

When student loan borrowers are in default, how does the Trump regime respond?
By garnishing their wages.
When billionaires see their wealth hit record highs, how does the Trump regime respond?
By extending their tax cuts.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

Most of the men sent to CECOT had no criminal records. Some never even entered the US illegally (like Andry Hernandez Romero - look him up).
If the Trump admin can send these men to a torture prison w no due process they can do it to anyone.
Thats the truth they don’t want told.

FOUR new deaths in ICE detention. That puts the total this year at 30 people dead; the highest in ICE's history and worse than even during the COVID years.
It's clear that the system is breaking down. Many of these are preventable deaths.

In the 90 minutes since I posted this, I've gotten two more death notifications.
ICE has a responsibility to take care of these people, something they are clearly disregarding. This is beyond horrifying. We must ensure dignity and humanity for detained people in this country.

Within 15 minutes today, I got two back-to-back notifications of deaths at ICE facilities.
28 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office. These facilities are overcrowded & are putting their own profits over health and safety. We need oversight & accountability NOW.

Incredible footage out of Australia, confirmed by NEWS AU, of a brave bystander neutralizing one of the terrorists in the Bondi Beach attack which took place during a Hanukkah gathering.
Australian authorities say multiple people have been killed.
At least two suspects are in custody.

Watch attempts to use the horrific mass shooting in Australia as “proof” that gun safety laws don’t work
Bondi is Australia’s first deadly mass shooting in 3 years
Brown is USA’s first deadly mass shooting in 3 days
And the 15th deadly & 389th overall mass shooting of 2025
There is no comparison
