DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."
But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."
We need your help bringing two pregnant women back home from ICE detention! Their loved ones and community are asking for financial assistance to support the family during these difficult times.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.
No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.

Awooooo!
After remaining silent for almost a year about the U.S. measles outbreak, NIH/CDC poseur Jay Bhattacharya is now recommending measles vaccines.
And this is where he gets to see the impact of the destruction of trust in public health and vaccines, for which he is partially responsible.
I just left a classified briefing with the Trump Administration about the war in Iran.
I was worried before, but I’m more worried now.
SCHIFF: Are you saying it's just fortuitous that $143m went to a subcontractor that you worked w/ extensively as gov of SD?
KRISTI NOEM: I had no choosing of contractors.
S: Can you state for record that you or Lewandowski had no communication with any agency involved?
N: To best of my knowledge

after absolutely eviscerating Kristi Noem and calling for her resignation, Tillis is applauded. He thens threatens to hold up nominees if she doesn't stop stonewalling him. My God.
"10 days after his speech about trust & openness,
HHS rescinded a 54yo policy of soliciting public
comments for new regulations, silencing
the voices the stakeholders he pledged
to serve..."
And MUCH more. Powerful rundown of RFK Jr damages @thelancet.com www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?
NOEM: Yes
WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?
NOEM: No.
In the past, sometimes presidents have said it’s just a military operation or limited airstrikes to skirt Congress. Trump has unilaterally launched major combat operations, declaring war with the goal of regime change. A major violation of the U.S. Constitution, also illegal under international law
“When I joined the tech industry, I thought tech was about making people’s lives easier,” an Amazon Web Services employee told @theverge.com, “but now it seems like it’s all about making it easier to surveil and deport and kill people.” www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...
if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying
“As far as I can tell, not a single Republican lawmaker has informed the public that the Save America Act would compel all 50 states to send their voter registration rolls to the DHS or that the DHS would then run the rolls through its ‘SAVE’ voter purge system.” 2/26/26 …1/

ICE is struggling to keep pace with vetting new hires during its historic recruitment push, so it's hiring officers before completing standard checks.
The agency fired five people after belatedly finding that they had outstanding warrants for their arrest.

After that, I was taken to a new cell in the SMHU. Before I got in, Lt. Teague stopped me in front of the cell and said, "I've told you before, and I'll tell you again, I don't give a fuck what that judge says, I do what I want." I understood him to be referring to Judge Lamberth in this case. He then said, "you only have a little bit of time left in here. If you want to make it home alive, you need to stop sending stuff to that fucking judge, or you're not going to make it." He slammed my door closed at the end of that sentence.
Pinson says that she was told this past Sunday: “If you want to make it home alive, you need to stop sending stuff to that fucking judge, or you're not going to make it.”

A reminder that Minnesota as a whole sends more revenue to the federal government than it gets back, and on a per capita basis Minnesotans contribute more revenue to the federal government than residents of almost every other state in the nation.
