Check this shit!

Earlier today, ICE tried to break into private property in Lynwood, California β€” no judicial warrant, no authority. Acting like thugs, not federal agents.

Spoiler alert: Lynwood does not play. This trio of goons got sent packing.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida.

If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Obama ended Iran's nuclear program WITHOUT DROPPING A SINGLE BOMB. That's real leadership.

The Supreme Court issued a stay, effectively ruling, for now, that the Constitution no longer applies, at least not to immigrants. Fast-track deportations with no opportunity for judicial review violate the fundamental principle of due process, especially for people already on U.S. soil.

To the brave service members: I offer my heartfelt apologies that you were put in such a position. Many of us witnessed your silent protest during the parade. Your quiet strength did not go unnoticed. We see you, and we deeply respect and honor you.

Need her to push for something like what was just introduced in California that would ban federal officers from covering their faces in the state. Make ICE's job as difficult as possible!

If the governors of states where masked men in non-descript uniforms easily purchased on Amazon were to simply arrest, them for state charges of assault & battery, aggravated kidnapping, & unlawful imprisonment maybe we would see some faces, nameplates & IDs magically appear. At least names on docs

Hi, it’s Meg again. Brad is still in ICE custody.

We are grateful to the many friends, supporters, and allies who have gathered in Federal Plaza.

Together we are standing up for those with no voice.

Padilla: The President, VP, and their allies have continued to call all the protesters out there insurrectionists. Yes, this is the same man who provoked an actual insurrection at our capitol on January 6.

Does anything in this picture say, "federal agents making a lawful arrest?" Perhaps they identified themselves. But when did it go out of fashion for law enforcement to look like law enforcement?

Federal agents handcuff and detain New York City mayoral candidate Brad Lander was taken into custody at an immigration court in Lower Manhattan.

Zohran Mamdani, who recently cross-endorsed with Lander, called for the comptroller’s immediate release. β€œThis is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice,” said Mamdani.

Why should we believe these men are actually ICE agents and not J6 criminals, thugs, or human traffickers?

I want to hear directly from immigrants and citizens who were taken by people like this, hauled off in unmarked cars by masked men with no ID…

@bradlander.bsky.social: "I was in a DHS detention for about 3.5 hours... I'm going to sleep at home in my bed tonight, safe with my family. But at Edgardo, who I was trying to accompany, he is in ICE detention. God knows where he's going to sleep tonight. And who knows what state."
