ICE took their papersβ€”and won’t give them back Immigrants are being released from detention without documents proving their status.

ICE releasing detainees without their documents. "...according to 10 immigration lawyers..., immigrants in Minnesota have been released from detention centers without the work permits, Social Security cards, licenses, and other documents that prove their status." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I might again remind people that the US military has no domestic arrest powers or law enforcement function baring extremely specific circumstances that likely aren’t what you think they are.

And this is a good thing. We have civilian representatives and civilian control of military for a reason.

Dispatches from MN: it's getting really hard, guys. The media has left, the donations are drying up, and ICE is still here kidnapping people. It's hard not to be resentful that other people have the option of setting this aside for.other things.

The Fight Against Trumpism Can’t Wait for Election Day In the absence of immediate electoral solutions, citizens under threat of the administration’s authoritarian boot are having to rely on one another to survive.

The Cuban Embassy says a Florida-registered speedboat entered Cuban waters this morning and allegedly opened fire on Cuban border guards who approached it, injuring the commander of the Cuban vessel. Cuba says four people on the U.S. boat were killed and six others aboard it were injured.

I'm heading to the Senate floor in a few moments to lay out the detailed story of ICE abuse - teargassing schools, murdering American citizens with impunity, disappearing legal immigrants. And why we should not fund ICE until they stop terrorizing our communities.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

The only truth that emerged from the chamber last night.

Rep. Al Green was thrown out of the SOTU for holding this sign, which, to me, seems more like a reward than a punishment.

Joshua Orta was killed in a car crash on Saturday...

He was the key witness to the ICE shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez.

Additionally a woman who was witness to another ICE shooting just died in a car crash recently too

Blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol dies in Buffalo. A nearly blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol miles from his home dies in Buffalo after having been missing for nearly a week.

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way.

Who Is Paying for the 2025 U.S. Tariffs? - Liberty Street Economics Over the course of 2025, the average tariff rate on U.S. imports increased from 2.6 to 13 percent. In this blog post, we ask how much of the tariffs were paid by the U.S., using import data through No...

The US Constitution gives Congress the power to β€œlay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises” (Article I, Section 8), and requires that revenue-raising bills originate in the House of Representatives (Article I, Section 7). Tariffs are a form of duty, often experienced like a tax on imports.

Not surprising, but at least it’s now on the record. A report by researchers at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York found that U.S. companies and consumers had shouldered the burden of Trump’s expansive tariffs.

A German politician and Member of the European ParliamentΒ  says she grew up free because US soldiers defeated German fascism. Now she says it β€œbreaks my heart” to watch the US itself drift toward authoritarianism. The warning from Germany could not be more stark. #holdfast

STUNNING - European Parliament sends historic support to ICE resistors in America: 'Stay inside. Keep your doors closed. They are coming.' These are warnings that people shout to their neighbors when ICE is turning up in their street. Masked men raiding houses, imprisoning children, spreading an atmosphere of fear and arbitrariness.

Colleagues, no one can tell me that this is simply regular law enforcement. It has to stop, and it has to be condemned by European lawmakers.

I grew up with a strong belief in U.S. democracy. After all, the reason why I could grow up in democracy and freedom was because of the brave fight also of U.S. soldiers against German fascism here in Europe. And that is why it breaks my heart even more when I see what is happening in the U.S. right now.

The country which contributed so much to our understanding of modern democracy, of what rule of law is, of what checks and balances are, of how we put limits to executive power.

This is why I want to say to all our friends in the U.S. who still believe in these American values: keep up the fight. Keep resisting to this authoritarian power grab that is ongoing right now.

Europe is at your side. We will stand up for your rights, for our rights, for human rights. For Alex Pretti. For RenΓ©e Good. For so many others who have been killed. For democracy and rule of law. For all of us. Keep resisting.

– Terry Reintke, Co-President of the EFA Group in the European Parliament
