It’s worse than an attack on journalism

Stephen Miller acknowledges a “possible breach of protocol” before Alex Pretti’s shooting.

Come on! That’s not it. The agency is performing exactly as designed.

Miller set a quota for ICE arrests and impossible hiring targets. Kristi Noem set low standards for qualifications to meet the quota.

What do you mean “who they are & where they sit”? We are not talking about commercial flights. There 50 flights a day on ICE charters transporting thousands of shackled people. All adults and some children are shackled on ICE flights. gillianbrockell.ghost.io/what-is-ice-...

I talked a little in this piece I wrote about ilhan last month that she’s a big fan of combat sports, and the way that influences her treatment of politics.

Last night you saw her first response to a physical threat was to square up and cock a fist. Case in point.

These words demand attention.

At least 600 clergy came to MPLS in the freezing temps, dropping everything from their overwhelming jobs

including like 100 rabbis

to be there in solidarity.

The Bible commands us to care for im/migrants at least 36 times, more than any other commandment.

"Thou shalt not murder" is also a thing.
Religion note: those who have been protesting DHS/ICE in the streets — those Sec. Hegseth labels “lunatics” here — have included hundreds of clergy *just this week.* religionnews.com/2026/01/23/i...

Here is the video showing the ICE agent stealing Alex Pretti's very legal firearm.

It shows the ICE agent discharging the firearm of Alex Pretti.

Then the murder of Alex Pretti.

Total incompetence. The only thing that's been a standard for ICE.
