Personally, I'm blaming Bugs Bunny.

This happened four blocks away from me while I was sound asleep. It is impossible to read the details and see the photos and think of the perpetrators of this as anything other than profoundly evil.

JUST IN: A U.S. citizen from Alabama who has been detained twice by ICE while working at a construction site, has filed a class action suit claiming ICE's broad warrantless arrest powers violate the constitution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This isn't a kingdom, and we got no damn keys.

...those are quotes.

Arguably, the quote is WORSE in context: "You kill people and break things for a living. You are not politically correct and don't necessarily belong always in polite society." These words speak volumes, not about our military, but about the man saying them.

Starting tomorrow, we're working with advocacy groups, independent journalists, newsrooms, and anyone else who wants open government records. We know how to get the documents the government doesn’t want seen.

Today was my last day as a federal employee, but tomorrow I and my new partner, Ginger Quintero-McCall, open a new law practice, the Free Information Group. We are both FOIA lawyers, and we are very good at suing the government. 1/

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.

Arizonans just elected Adelita Grijalva to represent them in Washington, and there’s no reason to delay seating her. Speaker Johnson should swear her in immediately so she can get to work.

I just do not fundamentally share the optimism that some of you have that the military would refuse orders to shoot protesters. Do I know for sure it will happen? No. But it just feels like yet another manifestation of American exceptionalism and “it can’t REALLY happen here” denialism to me.

3/ An agent then appeared to shove people away from the elevator entrance, which led to Elibol falling to the ground, as footage captured by photographer Stephanie Keith shows.

I don't think there has been a generation before which has been so thoroughly failed by the adults around them at every stage. It's amazing that they still have such moral clarity and initiative. God bless them.

Update: horrifying details about last night's raid are emerging. Organizers + electeds are reporting potentially dozens of people (at least 40 per initial estimate) were detained. Not much more confirmed at this time. More will be shared at press conference at 5 at corner of 75th & South Shore.

In Chicago, ICE arrested one journalist, another news reporter was directly targeted by a chemical weapon. Now this in New York. Shameful. www.amny.com/immigration/...

Hegseth: The military is for killing people and breaking things. No more rules of engagement. Trump: I’ll be sending the military into U.S. cities.

This comes the same day Hegseth told the military to pursue "the enemy within" and not to worry about war crimes. They want to embed the ethos of ICE into the military.

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality. I don't know how to yell any louder.

A 32-year-old man shot during a sniper attack last week at a Dallas immigration enforcement office has died after being pulled from life support, according to a statement by the man’s wife.

New reporting shows that an ICE officer pushed a photojournalist to the ground. The photojournalist could not get up and an ambulance was called to carry him in a stretcher with a neck brace.

1/ DEVELOPING: A journalist was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Hospital following another incident with an ICE agent at 26 Federal Plaza, an immigration court in NYC. The last I heard, he was getting X-rays for his lower back.

I don’t know who needs to be reminded of this, but the US military is meant to be apolitical, loyal to the US Constitution and independent of any party or political movement. It’s not a President’s personal militia, campaign prop, or loyalty test.

Trump is openly declaring war on America. This is precisely the thing everyone in the military has taken a sacred oath to prevent. www.npr.org/2025/09/30/n...

The creepiness of all this is just unbelievable. Some rando weirdo group posts something online about you, saying you believe something BAD, then a govt agent sees it and secretly starts researching you trying to find a reason to destroy your life and get you arrested...

BREAKING: The HUD website now has the following message slot the government shutdown in red at the top of the page. This is absolutely a violation of the HATCH act and must be investigated immediately.

No, it's fucking ass-backwards. The elegant solution is not pissing off THE WORLD, and letting the farmers sell to whoever they want.

www.bbc.com/news/article... Hmmmm. What other country do I know of that's doing stupid shit in the name of morality? Such a mystery.

BREAKING: WE WON!!! 💥 💥 💥 Federal Judge William G. Young ruled today in our lawsuit against the Trump administration that the policy of arresting, detaining, & deporting noncitizen students & faculty members for their pro-Palestinian advocacy violates the 1st Amendment. Full ruling here:

One reason to support @aaup.org in this case is that they are not Harvard the institution, even as they are defending Harvard faculty and student rights. AAUP will not stop if the administration and Harvard leadership come to an agreement that still undercuts those rights.

🚨🚩 #Journalist attacked by #ICE at #ICE 26 Federal Plaza💥

I don't want 100 troops sent to Chicago. It's a major escalation that must be opposed. I also want folks to understand that the agents that have been attacking us at Broadview are more heavily armed and elaborately, tactically outfitted than National Guard troops would be. We're already in some shit

What I would give for a completely honest, anonymous assessment of this appalling and ludicrous spectacle from the commanders in the room.

Trump to top military officials: "I told Pete, we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military. National Guard, but our military. Because we're going into Chicago very soon. That's a big city with an incompetent governor. Stupid governor."

Trump to generals: "America is under invasion from within. We're under invasion from within. No different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in any ways because they don't wear uniforms. At least when they're wearing a uniform you can take them out."

Ooooh, new euphemism just dropped. “Less hindered by the laws.” I mean, “illegal” is right there: shorter and more to the point. But ok. “Your honor, my client was just less hindered by the law when he demanded the victim’s wallet at gunpoint. That’s not a ‘crime,’ is it?”

"I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States

Trump opens with a threat to the generals: "I've never walked into a room so silent … Have a good time. And if you want to applaud, you applaud ... If you don't like what I'm saying, you can leave the room. Of course, there goes your rank, there goes your future. but you just feel nice and loose."

America does not need punchlines in power. TV personalities are not leaders. They are actors pretending at government on a stage they do not understand. The cost of their performance is paid in rights, services, and lives.

Hey remember when the CDC dropped 6 of the 8 foodborne illnesses from the nationwide monitoring system in July and one of them was listeria? Mentioning for no particular reason www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Hegseth: "We are overhauling an inspector general process that has been weaponized, putting complainers and poor performers in the driver seat. We are doing the same with the equal opportunity policies. No more frivolous complaints, no more anonymous complains ... no more walking on eggshells."

The reason we have rules of engagement isn’t to keep warfighters from killing our enemies. It’s to keep them from killing a farmer with a shovel bc they thought it was a rifle and didn’t bother to wait to check. Or a family in a car bc the driver looked nervous. Or a boat full of fishermen.

“We are arresting the Mayor, per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.” Read that again. This wasn't about trespassing. It was a direct order from the highest levels of the Trump administration to silence and punish a political opponent.

If you think you’re having a crap day, take comfort in knowing there are multi-star Generals who were ordered to fly halfway around the world to listen to a nut job drone on about his election numbers.

Stephen Miller, a man no one elected, is behind the Venezuelan boat strikes which have killed 17 people. He should not be making military decisions. He should not be executing strikes that take lives. Only silver lining? He has no immunity. He can (and should) be prosecuted for his crimes.

After exhaustive research I believe I have a pretty good handle on what women want: Less interference in their bodily autonomy. Fewer Creeps More pockets.

Hundreds of people have vanished from ICE's system at the Everglades internment camp. Families don't know where their loved ones are. This isn't deportation, it's kidnapping. That's why I introduced the SUDEM Act to hold ICE accountable and make this info public.

The White House made a big deal about the shooting at the ICE facility, but they dont want to talk about thr actual shootibg victims, one of whom is being kept alove by machines but is still shackled to his hospital bed. www.npr.org/2025/09/27/n...
