Ending this operation is not enough.

We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

At Google, speech critical of ICE is censored from the company's internal platform, employees who speak out are served with warnings, and leadership refuses to acknowledge a petition that's now gotten 1,200 employee signatures.

Inside the worker-led push to get ICE out of Google:
Google is stifling anti-ICE speech in the workplace as 1,200 employees call on the company to cut ties
The search giant has made it harder and riskier to protest its policies. Workers are still fighting back. Plus: A community takes down a data center, QuitGPT, and the 5 worst Super Bowl AI ads.

BREAKING: 47 Senators just blocked a measure that would have provided billions more dollars of no-strings-attached funding for ICE and Border Patrol to continue their violence and abuse.

While we applaud these Senators for taking action, the fight continues.

This is exhibit A that shoots down Homan's bullshit from earlier today:
"ICE is a legitimate federal law enforcement agency. We're not out scouring the streets to disappear people or deny people their civil rights or due process."

The Trump administration said it is ending its deployment of immigration agents to Minnesota. They’re framing it as Minnesota agreeing to cooperate, but most of their statements are false. It’s Minnesotans standing firm and refusing to back down. The resistance only grows. Minnesota strong 💪

The SAVE act is anti-American & anti-democracy. I’m furious that it passed the House.

It’s already illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections. Voter fraud is rarer than rare—and when it does occur, it’s often MAGA trying to illegally tip the scale.

Our military’s strength comes from the courage, talent, and diversity of the Americans who serve.

Dismissing that isn’t leadership—it’s disrespectful to every service member who defends our country.

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

Republicans have been getting walloped in special elections all year, so they want to make it damn near impossible to vote!

I will be voting NO and urge every one of my colleagues to do the same.
The SAVE Act would require every American citizen to show a passport or birth certificate and government ID to vote.

146 MILLION Americans do not have a passport.

69 MILLION women do not have a valid birth certificate due to surname changes.

The SAVE Act is an anti-voter bill.

The CFPB has returned billions of dollars to Americans who were conned & scammed by big corporations. Naturally, many billionaires didn't like that, so they had Trump go after the CFPB.

That's why we must protect the CFPB & ensure the rich don't get to play by their own rules.
