Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents.

Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center.

Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

BREAKING: Hundreds of sensitive U.S. records obtained by WIRED undercut the Trump administration’s claims portraying Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua as a unified terrorist force invading the country. Intelligence agencies spent much of 2025 unsure TdA even functioned as an organization on U.S. soil.

Hundreds of records obtained by WIRED show thin intelligence on the Venezuelan gang in the United States, describing fragmented, low-level crime rather than a coordinated terrorist threat.

Which raises the question. Why again are we funding an agency that needs rampant reform and refuses congressional oversight? @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @vanhollen.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov @wyden.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov @raskin.house.gov @reptedlieu.bsky.social

Historically, we've focused a lot on the brutal actions of authoritarian regimes, and today is no different.
Using imagery online of the shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, we’ve created an animated sequence which highlights the approximate positioning of officers and vehicles at the scene. The red dot represents the agent who fired the shots. Yellow dots are other agents who arrived at the scene.

ICE is out of control. Incident after incident, I'm both heartbroken and enraged.

This time, they caused a tamale vendor to have a heart attack and even arrested a U.S. citizen who was a bystander.  There's a reason a court found their tactics illegal. Get ICE out of LA.
