@captmarkkelly.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov Funding for these programs MUST be reduced.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps. If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

Blumenthal: ICE and CBP are out of control. The practices of this agency have to be completely overhauled. It’s like a corporation in bankruptcy—either dissolved or reorganized. They’re morally bankrupt, legally bankrupt, and politically bankrupt.

The are attempting to gut and destroy the boundary waters and the vote is as early as NEXT WEEK. Please call everyone now!

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov @democrats.org THIS IS THE CRUEL, MURDEROUS, & LAWLESS AGENCY YOU WANT OUR TAX DOLLARS TO CONTINUE TO FUND? You think this can be tamed? Reformed?

“Let’s make sure no more money goes toward this agency of terror, and redirect those funds back into the communities that have been most impacted by this harm that Congress has allowed to go on for far too long.” Spot on, @nberlat.bsky.social in @atrupar.com’s PN: open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...

1/ It’s almost the weekend, but as you know, viruses don't take time off! But don't worry, we've got you covered with a quick infectious disease weather report. To start, reports of fever, cough, and sore throat are rising again, as is typical when schools resume after the holidays.

Just like with Kilmer Abrego Garcia, the biggest sin any targeted immigrant can commit is winning battles — legal or PR battles — against the government, and they just won’t let those losses go

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left. It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

Weight loss drugs, around for years. Incredible promise, but still lots we don’t know with long term use and possible side effects Vaccines, around for centuries, incredible promise and far less uncertainty on their safety Keep that in mind as this admin pushes the former

We should’ve known when they brought in Tom Homan The “draw down” of ICE in Minnesota is nothing but a hoax -They’re still threatening protesters at gunpoint -They continue to conduct warrantless arrests -Kids are still being detained It’s only a matter of time before they kill somebody else

We just published database: @aclu.org plaintiffs' sworn declarations of ICE enforcement actions in Minnesota Devastating Racial profiling-arrests-headlock-handcuffs-shackles Mostly US citizens A big lesson here for Justice Kavanaugh. I believe he'll get it www.justsecurity.org/130745/minne... 🧵

Jacob Frey: "The continued presence of 2,000 federal agents in a city that only has 600 police officers is still not deescalation"

again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are his net worth is $253.2 billion. so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire and then do it again tomorrow and again the day after that and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months

1/ Vaccines worked so well that people have forgotten what life looked like without them. #Measles is reminding us. Because it’s the most contagious virus on Earth, even small drops in vaccination give it an opening. And right now, those openings are everywhere, both nationally and globally.

We are all responsible for what happens in our communities

“.. Not a single Republican member of Congress showed up to the public forum .. on the violence inflicted by federal immigration agents, featuring testimony from the brothers of Renee Good ..” @newrepublic.com newrepublic.com/post/206100/...

SHUT this down NOW. It’s not illegal to observe. ICE should not pull GUNS on innocent civilians. @senatedemocrats.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @warren.senate.gov

My office has been flooded with reports of the cruel, unsafe, unlawful conditions inside of the Whipple detention facility in Minneapolis. This weekend, I was finally granted access to perform oversight of the facility. youtu.be/0SxPn8n2Bfg

ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

800+ patriotic Americans showed up in #PrescottAZ this afternoon to stand up for their rights! #Solidarity ✊ #IceOut @indivisible.org @maddow.bsky.social @leahgreenberg.bsky.social @ezralevin.bsky.social

It should not take a court order to get a toddler out of a prison.

[butterfly meme] is this deescalation? www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/u...

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

✊Tomorrow @ 2pm: ICE Out of Everywhere protest in Prescott AZ #ICEOutForGood #ICEOutAZ #AZProtests

Here's an opportunity to support the other journalist arrested today; Georgia Fort, who will have far fewer resources available to her than Don Lemon.

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.

1/ Time for a quick infectious disease “weather report.” We're giving you a quick look at what we’re seeing right now across measles, flu-like illness, and Covid. 🧵

1/ Immigration enforcement is impacting people’s health. It’s a public health issue. ICE raids and deportations don’t only affect the people directly targeted. The health impacts ripple through families, schools, clinics, and entire communities.

An entire community of thousands, here legally, having been demonized with deranged lies about eating pets, is about to be arbitrarily DECLARED illegal so they can be forcibly ethnically cleansed. I don’t want to hear one more fucking word about comparisons to Nazi Germany being overwrought.

We are now 40 days beyond the statutory deadline for the full release of the Epstein files

Our community refuses to look away from the harm ICE inflicts on families, neighbors, and people seeking safety. We’re showing up again to keep the pressure on, to stand with immigrant communities, and to demand a future rooted in dignity, fairness, and human rights. @indivisible.org

Beware of any Christian movement that demands the government be an instrument of God's wrath but never a source of God's charity, mercy, or compassion.

Personally I think this is too much money to give to Donald trumps poorly trained but heavily armed Militia

1/ Recently, RFK Jr. made sweeping changes to childhood vaccine guidance using terms like “shared clinical decision-making” and “informed consent.” At first glance, they sound empowering—but the reality is more complicated. YLE contributor @kmpanthagani.bsky.social is breaking it down for us🧵

Congressional Budget Office: “Federal troop deployments to US cities cost a total of $496 million in 2025, CBO estimates. Continuing current deployments will cost $93 million a month; 1,000 Guard personnel deployed to a city will cost at least $18 million a month.” www.cbo.gov/publication/...

This much is clear: Stephen Miller is in charge. They've shipped off Bovino, they're hanging Noem out to dry, Trump is using slightly conciliatory language...and Miller is still running a blitzkrieg in Minnesota. He, not Trump, is in charge. And he is the one Democrats should fight to remove.

Walz: I think Kristi Noem probably should go back to South Dakota, not have any dogs, and just kind of ride things out

before you take any of the "Trump is pivoting/lamenting/lowering the temperature after the Pretti murder" stories too seriously, absolutely nothing has changed in Minneapolis: "an absolutely brutal day of raids and abductions" says one friend

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

Gov Greg Abbott (R-TX) openly criticizes ICE and distances himself from their operations in Minnesota, suggesting he things they are a spectacular failure and that the GOP needs to find someone to blame other than the people of Minnesota. www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/2...

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

Absolutley heartbreaking that parents of a man gunned down by federal agents have to put out a statement because the president and his cowardly minions are defaming their son. We’re way past sick.

Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included.

Presidents have broad, virtually unreviewable discretion to invoke the Insurrection Act but there has to be a threshold that says you can’t invade a peaceful city w/fedl law enforcement, kill 2 citizens & claim resulting protests merit sending in troops www.reuters.com/world/us/pen...

We were just sent Alex’s GoFundMe.

ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA -- our latest on the murder of Alex Pretti and the actions we should take right now:

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

Why did you vote to fund more of this? @gluesenkampperez.house.gov @golden.house.gov @thomas-r-suozzi.bsky.social
