Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas
Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...
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."

Congress Is Considering Abolishing Your Right to Be Anonymous Online
The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.
"Stripping anonymity from the internet would constitute one of the most sweeping rollbacks of civil rights in recent history. It would allow for unprecedented levels of mass surveillance and censorship, endangering the most marginalized members of society."

The US and China opposed condemning Russia for it's attacks on civilian infrastructure.
They are OK with war crimes against civilians, putting them in the dark and cold at temperatures of -20Β° C, or -4Β°F.
This will not be forgotten.

Screenshot of a page from WhiteHouse.gov (https://www.whitehouse.gov/media-bias-reporter/adrian-carrasquillo/) calling Adrian Carrasquillo of The Bulwark a "media offender" and a liar.
I'm especially proud today of my colleague @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social, whom the White House not long ago called a "media offender" and accused of pushing "fantasy" and "a lie" when he reported that Trump was thinking of replacing Kristi Noem.

And one of the sick ironies of the ICE occupation is that because they've been targeting non-white people at random, that includes people who have been on this continent 10,000 years longer than the rest of us.

"I respect Bernie Sanders because he's an open socialist, and you know that he's a communist so you know what you're getting. Rand Paul's a freaking snake. And I understand completely why his neighbor did what he did. And I told him that to his face."
This is what Markwayne Mullin said about Rand Paul a couple weeks ago.
Anyway, guess who chairs the Senate Homeland Security Committee

ICE detains reporter Estefany RodrΓguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner
Reporter Estefany RodrΓguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.
We donβt yet know if Estefany RodrΓguezβs detention was in retaliation for her reporting but we certainly wouldnβt be surprised.
ICE abductions of noncitizen journalists take the reporters best equipped to cover immigration enforcement off the beat.
