Neguse demolishes Noem (2/2)

Texas AG Ken Paxton has declared that it is illegal for mental health providers and therapists to treat trans youth. It means that trans youth will be denied access to any mental healthcare that isn't conversion therapy. Paxton also threatens parents of trans youth with child abuse investigations.

A federal judge ruled on Wednesday that a policy used by ICE to deport undocumented immigrants living in the U.S. to countries where they are not citizens is an unconstitutional denial of their due process rights.

“On the merits, its detentions are illegal,” the judge wrote. “[The government] knows this.” www.nytimes.com/2026/02/26/n...

Rubin: "On Jan. 4, Deputy AG Blanche wrote a memo instructing DOJ officials reviewing the Epstein files to flag 302 memos -- the form the FBI uses to memorialize interviews. That's the exact kind of document we reported yesterday was missing with respect to Trump's accuser."

Journalist Jeremy Scahill says the Trump administration’s vision for the Gaza Strip is of a continued “colonial apartheid regime.”

Trump’s propaganda czar Brendan Carr and Trump-controlled CBS refused to let Colbert air his interview with James Talarico. You can watch the interview here, and it already has 1.4M views. youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...

The Department of Homeland Security is flooding social media platforms with subpoenas demanding they unmask the people behind anti-ICE accounts. This crackdown on speech shows EXACTLY why online age verification laws are so dangerous. Here's why: 🧵

Update: The federal indictment against Kyle Wagner confirms our reporting, that Wagner was arrested and charged with cyberstalking right-wing agitator Jayden Scott (who allegedly stalked a Minnesota reporter before this) and NOT federal agents. /

Let this serve as a reminder that a tyrant can never be appeased.

I get that everyone who is in the know knows this already but I am quite happy for a publication to be surfacing it again, especially for readers who may not be aware

I read the SAVE Act (the GOP’s new voter suppression bill) so you don’t have to. This is my one page summary. Jesus it’s bad. 3/

If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.

Great work by Greg Sargent. We are, right now, deciding whether we want to be a land of giant concentration camps and ethnic cleanings. newrepublic.com/article/2060...

Again, this is FALSE. Administrative warrants are NOT signed by an immigration judge (or any judge at all). They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves with no external oversight whatsoever. Here is a blank sample warrant. Note who signs off on it; an "immigration officer."

In case you wondered why Pamela Jo Bondi is extorting terrorized states to hand over their voting records. This regime knows that the only way the survive a midterm bloodbath is to cook the books.

My statement on the funding deal.

This would be DHS's first major push into a red state. Ohio has a Republican governor and Springfield has a Republican mayor. Doing this with the support of city and state officials (unlike in California, Illinois or Minnesota) could be brutal and horrific.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment. Excellent article!

BREAKING: A federal judge blocks the Trump administration from destroying or altering evidence related to the Minneapolis shooting of Alex Pretti.

there are so many gutting stories, but this one is hitting me extra hard. just imagining wael tarabishi slowly dying without his dad there to care for him because he was jailed by ICE makes me…i don’t have words. this country is disgusting.

"Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is suing some of the world’s largest oil companies, accusing them of colluding for decades to keep renewable energy and electric vehicles on the margins." There's a thought!

Don't forget the Supreme Court's role facilitating ICE's brutality and racism in Minneapolis. SCOTUS lifted an injunction that limited racial profiling in immigration enforcement on Sept. 8. The federal assault on Chicago began the next day. Then came the Twin Cities. SCOTUS greenlit these horrors.

Police have arrived. Arrests seem imminent. The crowd chants “let them pray” and “Minnesota nice means prosecute ICE”

MINNESOTA VERSION OF COME OUT YE BLACK AND TANS

Share this, wide and far. Sing it. Sing it loud. Sing it with all the grief and passion your lungs can release. Teach your kids to sing it at the top of their lungs. Tell them the tears are from your pride. Not the heartbreak "for the crime of being too good of a neighbor."

I spent the morning at the San Antonio immigration court. It’s out of control. Crawling with ICE - arresting legal immigrants showing up for court appearances. I asked one officer who they are prioritizing. His answer: everyone. I need to share with you what I saw.

Bipartisan negotiators released a DHS funding bill that does not significantly reduce ICE and CBP’s funding nor rein in the agencies’ abuses of power. Make no mistake: Any Democrat who votes for this bill is complicit in Trump’s campaign of terror. Grow a spine and vote no.

THE WOMAN WHO WAS DRAGGED OUT OF HER CAR AND ARRESTED BY ICE SPEAKS OUT… We’ve all seen the videos, but it matters to hear Aliya Rahman say it herself. 📌 She says her treatment in custody was dehumanizing, and that officers completely failed to take her disability seriously.

Two DOGE members working at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with a group seeking to “overturn election results in certain states,” and one signed an agreement that may have involved using Social Security data to match state voter rolls" www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

The DHS response to questions about this story is bizarre for a number of reasons, but especially because the article is about how they detained a citizen. “ICE has higher detention standards than most U.S. prisons that hold actual U.S. citizens.”

A man who was charged with a felony for allegedly shining a laser pointer at Trump's helicopter was acquitted in 35 minutes

We must continue the work to abolish ICE. But right now, Congress can stop ICE’s violent reign of terror. Tell them to do it today: (202) 224-3121

BREAKING: James Rodden, an ICE prosecutor who the Observer identified last year as the operator of an X account that posted “America is a White nation," “‘Migrants’ are all criminals,” and apparent praise of Adolf Hitler, appeared to be back at work Tuesday. www.texasobserver.org/ice-prosecut...

Gov. Walz to MS NOW: "Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system … is a dangerous, authoritarian tactic. "The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her."

It's not that hard folks. Putin ordered Trump to destroy the U.S. from the inside. And that is precisely what he is doing.

A US early-warning radar of one sort or another has been on Greenland for nearly 70 years—without the need for US sovereignty. Greenland is also covered by Article Five & US could protect it v Russia or China. Conflating Greenland's military importance with the issue of US ownership is dishonest.

I made this video so we can talk about what ICE is actually doing in our cities. I have the details and you need to hear them. Please share this. ICE isn't targeting criminals or even people here illegally. They are just making up the law - every day. Here's what's going on.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

🚨BREAKING: ICE unleashes ONSLAUGHT of flash bang grenades and chemical ammunition at unarmed Minneapolis protesters in WAR-LIKE attack. Several protesters struck. Our reporter @zdroberts.bsky.social struck in the head. "I got hit in the head really bad." LIVE NOW ⬇️

Trump’s attack on Powell is even weaker than his failed cases against James & Comey They’re turning mere testimony in Congress into grounds for investigation—reprehensible Powell did the right thing to speak up I explained on @cnn.com w/ @lauracoates.com👇 -TN

Hey billionaires? You think middle classes are just expendable bodies? Open an Fing economics or history book. ALWAYS, a strong, financially secure middle class is the stepping stone to national prosperity. Oh yeah, but you made your 1st billion before age 35, so you’re right about everything. 🙄
