You can not have probable cause to arrest a citizen for being unlawfully present in the United States. IOW, this is kidnapping, and felony assault, and battery, and deprivation of rights under color of law, and the sort of thing that IS probable cause to arrest and prosecute the people who did it.

Trump's petition asking the Supreme Court to let him officially redefine (read: rescind) birthright citizenship is now available and I wish I did not have to worry about the Supreme Court taking seriously such obviously, egregiously unserious & racist bullshit www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/25...

🚨 BREAKING: HUD just fired 2 of the 4 civil rights attorneys who blew the whistle on illegal discrimination, political interference & the dismantling of fair housing protections. This comes just one week after Sen. Warren called for an IG investigation. #ProtectWhistleblowers #FairHousing

Let's pick the very worst person possible other than our president and make him co-president of the United States. Remember when everyone was complaining about Elon being co-president? Or Jared? Well, this is worse than those. By a lot.

On a podcast this morning, we did make note that exactly one individual on the masthead was a competitive boxer, and one trained extensively in taekwondo. So…yeah.

JUST IN: Judge Simon sets a restraining order hearing for *tonight* on Trump's deployment of the National Guard in Oregon. Suggests he could issue a very quick order.

“Is it that the Chief Justice doesn’t accept that the Court is losing credibility on a daily basis; that he thinks the Court doesn’t need that credibility in order to fulfill its intended role in our constitutional system; or that he doesn’t care?” Me on John Roberts as his Court turns 20 today:

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

"An Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer who was initially relieved of his duties after being captured on video pushing a woman to the ground outside an immigration court in New York City has been returned to duty..."

Trump on Mamdani: "He is going to have problems with Washington like no Mayor in the history of our once great City. Remember, he needs the money from me, as President, in order to fulfill all of his FAKE Communist promises. He won’t be getting any of it, so what’s the point of voting for him?"

ICE Nazis in Chicago tried to kidnap a food delivery worker but my man was too fast for those slow bastards

Reporter Asal Rezaei said there was no active protest or protesters at the facility, and she was alone with no one around her at the time of the incident. An ICE agent allegedly shot a pepper ball into her vehicle, which went off in her car, causing her to vomit. www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news...

This is called impunity. It used to be a foreign affairs policy. It’s now rubber stamped by lower courts for internal affairs as well. All it took was 6 months.

Smh what are you waiting on dude It's literally Mamdani or Cuomo or the maga dude which is basically one in the same with Cuomo. 🙄

JUST IN: Oregon sues to stop Trump’s deployment of the military, saying its pretextual and that ICE protests have been small and relatively contained since June. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

BREAKING: Oregon & Portland just sued President Trump to block his order sending federal troops into the city. The plaintiffs call the deployment “patently unlawful” and say it violates the U.S. Constitution and the Posse Comitatus Act.

“The public interest in having free and unhindered debate on matters of public importance -- the core value of the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment -- is so great that it has been held”…

So the First Amendment protects civil servants from retaliation when they speak in their personal capacities about matters of public concern.

Recently I learned that civil servants have the First Amendment-protected right to speak out on matters of public concern. Thurgood Marshall, in an 8-1 SCOTUS decision, noted that government employees know how the gov’t works, and the public has a special interest in hearing from them.

But Judge Ali concludes he has no power to help now that the man is outside of US custody. It's virtually identical to the position judge Chutkan was in when the US sent 5 men to Ghana — only for them to be sent to places they're likely to face torture. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

JUST IN: A judge concludes the Trump administration sent a man to Mexico to sidestep protections against torture. He has no criminal history and had legal protection from being sent to his native El Salvador — where it appears Mexico is sending him. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

"As a Palestinian woman born in Saudi Arabia — a country with no birthright citizenship — she is stateless. ...Sakeik has nowhere to be deported to — though that didn’t stop the Trump administration from trying."

Dozens of ICE agents were spotted in downtown Chicago early Sunday afternoon. The agents, some of whom were masked, were walking north on Michigan Avenue from Millennium Park toward Tribune Tower. trib.al/Rv4Qx0t

A Dreamer with hypertension just died in ICE custody: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Well, this market is gone:

As if the Nazi salutes and attempts to destroy our democracy weren't enough, NOW will you stop posting on X?

Most people are doing multiple jobs- without the ability to provide extra pay. “Energy Dominance” is overused and leads to decisions that go against our conservation mission. The shutdown looms. RIFs seem to be coming with or without the shutdown.

We also expect hits to regulatory employees across DOI. For FWS, we already are short-staffed. Our research branch (science applications) is already gone/absorbed. We have not hired since January (except fire and LE). 20-25% of our employees have departed with the fork or buyout.

Thought I would share this post from May 2 as a reminder. DOI was ready to move forward with RIF actions (layoffs) in May. The courts paused this, but it’s moving again. Word is those consolidated from the agencies to the Department will be big targets. HR, contracting, communication, IT, etc.

President Donald Trump’s deportation campaign is forcing some immigrants to isolate at home. But relatives, friends and strangers are stepping up to try to keep them connected. trib.al/vGozIIT

ICE Argues Migrants In Camps Are Free To Die At Any Time https://theonion.com/ice-argues-migrants-in-camps-are-free-to-die-at-any-tim-1835623878/

This is the secret the Trump regime tried so hard to keep about the Dallas ICE shooting The names of the dead and wounded Jose Andres Bordones-Molina Miguel Ángel García-Hernandez Norlan Guzman-Fuentes Fight Trump's dehumanization. Say their names. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/dall...

“Show us your warrant!” “Ma’am, you’ve been watching too many movies. We’ll show you the warrant after we’re done.” 🤔 *busts in the door with babies crying*

And now Trump is going too

Because anyone can fake credentials. It's just to protect women and children from people pretending to be feds, you know.

Remember what Kavanaugh said about how ICE lets you go if you show you're an American? And the reality that that takes days or weeks? Do the same thing. Let them go if they show they're a fed. But require it to be in the form of 2 official, notarized pay stubs shipped certified mail from HQ.

Pass a law making it illegal for LE to wear a mask. Then arrest any LE who wear a mask. Then let them go after a few days in jail if they're a fed. Then arrest them again the next time they wear a mask. Wash, rinse, repeat until behavior changes.

Mr. Ramirez, who was working LEGALLY at the factory, has U.S. citizen children and a wife here. He repeatedly asked to call his lawyer. DHS refused him at every turn, and threw him on a plane to Guatemala within 72 hours. DHS claims he waived a right to a hearing. He says that they're lying. 3/3

WOW. This entire story is HORRIFIC. This is FOIA of a body cam from the raid in upstate New York the same day as the Hyundai plant. It catches a Border Patrol agent on camera only bragging about denying medical care to migrants detained at the border under Biden — who he says are all "animals." 1/3

Or Jasmine Crockett. I have a girl crush on her.

And the admin is likely to try to deport him again once he’s out of the hospital.

Clarence Thomas likens old rulings that protect our rights to trains driven by monkeys.

What we might refer to as a "Kavanaugh Stop"

18 days later, Justice Kavanaugh would write: “If the person is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.”

The circumstances of Mr. Escobar's arrest are even worse than the brief summary above. He repeatedly tried to tell the immigration officials that he had papers while they were arresting him. In response, a federal agent said "No you don't. You are illegal," and "Shut up, bitch! You're illegal."

I'm not an #OBGYN or #Pediatrician. But...neither is Makary. Unlike Makary, I know how to look at peer-reviewed literature for things I don't personally know instead of talking out of my ass. Which shows that #fever in #pregnancy increases risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in fetus.

Border Patrol agent talks about how he knows that the people he's arresting at this nutrition bar factory in NY are "literal street rats" who would "eat our kids"
