Emmanuel Damas died in ICE custody after ICE failed to treat a tooth issue that turned into pneumonia.
ICE didn't even keep his family updated.
The Trump admin's cruelty knows no bounds.
I'm pressing with Senator Markey and Rep. Pressley to hold ICE accountable.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

BREAKING:
The Justice Department just posted online three FBI interviews that had been missing from the massive trove of Epstein files initially released.
They're related to unsubstantiated sexual assault allegations against Donald Trump.

In many ways, that was the promise of streaming! Creative people were excited about tailoring a season to what it needed to be, not what external factors demanded. But unfortunately, that was a false promise, as Mike Schur explained a while back www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/20...
Newly unveiled records have backed a whistleblower’s claim that ICE slashed basic training programs covering use of force, conduct of arrests, and firearms training amid the administration's hiring blitz.
The man was detained last month after two women, who were ICE agents, knocked on the man’s door to ask for help with their car. The man, who is an auto mechanic, was surrounded by agents after he left his home to offer assistance.
Several women told investigators after Jeffrey Epstein’s 2019 death that they were sexually abused by his associates. The Justice Department has said the files include unverified allegations.

Trump’s war against Iran is illegal and a betrayal of the American people.
Congress cannot allow Trump to drag yet another generation into a forever war.

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

When you combine this with the decision of Kansas to revoke any driver’s licenses that identify people as transgender, you realize that years of Republicans demonizing people at the margins-for naked political gain-has become mainstream
And you see how we’re drifting further away from our ideals
Overturning years of precedent, immigration authorities have arrested or questioned dozens of refugees in Minnesota, attorneys and advocates say, with more detentions likely to come nationwide. https://to.pbs.org/3OwH91H
Art matters. And what do we do with things that matter? We protect them.
Here is information about H.R. 7661, a US book banning bill that explicitly targets books about trans people, and what you can do right now to help stop it.
Screenshot of an X post by Prem Thakker summarizing remarks from the Columbia University president, stating that five DHS agents entered a campus residence without a warrant, claimed to be looking for a missing child, ignored a campus officer’s repeated requests for a warrant, and took a student. The embedded image shows a woman seated indoors in front of bookshelves, speaking directly to camera.
DHS is now lying its way into college dorms without warrants in order to seize students.
