The FBI raided the home of a Washington Post reporter.

This is a blatant attack on press freedom — yet Jeff Bezos has so far been silent.

Billionaire control of the media is a danger to us all.

ICE hired a journalist without a background check, drug test, or anything else. They gave her a six minute interview and then listed her on their website as having joined ICE.

This journalist was/is my friend @laurajedeed.bsky.social

You’ve Heard About Who ICE Is Recruiting. The Truth Is Far Worse. I’m the Proof.
What happens when you do minimal screening before hiring agents, arming them, and sending them into the streets? We're all finding out.

Any one of us could be detained for hours by ICE despite being a U.S. citizen.

Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night.

Any one of us could be the next to be brutalized by ICE for speaking out.

Authoritarianism hurts all of us.

Dear trump,

You're a desperate loser.
You took a guy's Purple Heart.
You lied about Michigan's "Man of the Year" award.
You took Machado's Nobel Peace Prize.
It's a participation trophy.

On Obama's worst day, and your best,
he will ALWAYS be better.

The world laughs at you.
Pathetic.

U.S. billionaires got an astounding $1.5 TRILLION richer in the first year of Trump's second term.

Remember — this is happening as they get even more tax cuts in exchange for the social safety net being cut for everyone else.

"New Golden Age" for who?

32 people died in ICE custody last year — the agency’s deadliest year in over two decades.

Meanwhile, private prison corporations that are building and overseeing ICE detention centers are raking it in.

Cashing in on cruelty.

Trump would rather spend billions of dollars and triple the budget of ICE so he can terrorize the American people

Than spend any money to help them

In my fifty years in politics, I don’t think I’ve seen anything like this before.

I haven't always agreed with Jerome Powell, but what Donald Trump is doing is out of the dictator’s playbook.

Kudos to Powell for speaking out.

On Sunday, MN senator Tina Smith slammed the regime:

"I think what we are seeing here is the federal government, Noem, Vance, Trump, attempting to cover up what happened here.

"I don't think that people here and around the country are believing it."

NEW: House Democrats asked a judge to force the federal government to explain how a new DHS policy — which requires lawmakers to request oversight visits to ICE facilities seven days in advance — doesn't violate a previous court order blocking such restrictions.
Lawmakers say Noem is still illegally blocking ICE facility oversight

ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee Good BEFORE Mayor Frey and Governor Walz condemned them

For months prior to THAT, ICE has been illegally attacking citizens and noncitizens alike

And once Trump is gone, Greg Bovino will forever be remembered as the Bull Connor of this era
