ICE "officials under a judge's order to clean up overcrowded and squalid conditions on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza detained migrants on a separate, secret floor where they decided that ruling didn't apply." #NewYork #USA #Incarceration #Food #Deportation #EthnicCleansing

MPR: '‘I saw everything’: Woman speaks out after ICE shot and detained her partner in north Minneapolis' 'The ICE agent shot his gun through the front door and the bullet went through it, seriously grazing Sosa-Celis’ right thigh.' www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

SWALWELL: You said you wanted to see a deportation process that was 'like Amazon Prime but with human beings.' How many times has Amazon Prime shot a mom 3 times in the face? LYONS: None SWALWELL: How many times has Amazon Prime shot a nurse 10 times in the back? LYONS: None

Israel crammed 2 million Palestinians into displacement camps where 50 people share one bathroom per hour & sewage runs between tents. Now bacterial meningitis is spreading through Gaza's children. An 11-year-old got sick & died within a week. mondoweiss.net/2026/02/a-de...

Breaking: on two counts, the High Court has ruled that the Labour government's proscription of the campaign group Palestine Action was unlawful – a win for its co-founder Huda Ammori, who sought a judicial review of the ban

The EU has just voted, by a VERY wide margin, for the full recognition of trans women as women…!

I don't have data to prove it, but I strongly suspect we're looking at a repeatable recipe for activating an audience to defend their own values, without the side effect of promoting doomscrolling and shitposting over real-world action. Grain of Hope + Mortality Reminder + Score A Point on Bad Guy

A stunning detail the ICE chief shared in this hearing that was supposed to be a brag, except it isn't: ICE has arrested 379,000 people between Jan. 2025-Jan. 2026 -- but only 8,700 were suspected gang members or known suspected terrorists. That's 2%! www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

HOOOOOO boy. Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.): "Do you consider yourself a religious man?" Lyons: "Yes ma'am." McIver: "How do you think Judgement Day will work for you with so much blood on your hands?" "Do you think you're going to hell, Mr. Lyons?"

Newsom vetoed a bill that would've prevented insurance discrimination against trans people and allowed people to stockpile 6 months of HRT. So yes, not only would he do this, he is actively doing it right now by endangering our access to healthcare in order to protect insurance companies.

Ring has done this before. They partner with cops, get backlash, withdraw a bit, wait for it to calm down, and then go right back to working with cops. Don't believe this spin. www.theverge.com/news/878447/...

I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them." That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

“Illegals” is an offensive slur used to dehumanize people. No human being is illegal. And for the record: undocumented immigrants cannot vote. Repeating that lie isn’t ignorance, it’s deliberate fear-mongering meant to justify voter suppression.

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN. No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated. Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here? No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.

A 76-year-old veteran and nurse was tackled and detained at the site of Alex Pretti's killing. Agents told him his phone was evidence in an investigation into him assaulting an officer. “I didn’t assault an officer. I got assaulted by three officers." minnesotareformer.com/2026/02/12/w...

feels like i should re-post this every few weeks

To everyone thanking me, much appreciated but not why I posted! Pls support your local immigrant defense group like: The Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota: www.ilcm.org/donate/ Or my hometown LUCE: www.lucemass.org/donate Or Google your city/state & “immigrant defense” to find your local heroes!

People can have different political opinions about immigration policy. Political differences are fine, healthy for a democracy. But if you’re okay with this, that’s not a political opinion. That is a moral failing. 27/

So it’s a race: how quickly can a person’s family realize they were snatched and find a lawyer, and how quickly can that lawyer get a habeas petition of file? And is that faster than ICE can load the detainee on a plane to Texas? It’s exhausting and terrifying. It can be life and death. 18/

See ICE wants these cases in Texas, where Trump-infected courts are more tolerant of their antics, more biased against non-citizens, more willing to let DHS fill up concentration camps. (Not all Texas judges, for sure. Plenty are bravely faithful to the rule of law. ICE is playing the numbers) 17/

Legal status doesn’t matter: if you exceed ICE’s melanin threshold, you get snatched. It is ethnic cleansing. There is no other word for it. The news has shown you video of these often violent detentions. What you don’t see is what happens to these individuals after. I’ve had a front row seat. 7/

Army veteran who lived in U.S. legally for over 50 years deported after ICE arrest

Police will not protect you. They will collude with the feds to ensure ICE can kidnap you and your kids at school. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I feel nauseous. The USA has concentration camps. The USA has death camps, roaming squads of thuggish murderers, & leaders who are pedophiles.

The citizens they sorted are regular Americans!!!

Original, non-Apple source www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

If you have a ring camera, it is possible to return it and get a refund, and looking into doing so might be well worth your time. bsky.app/profile/tris...

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

My referral for a hematologist to help treat my sickle cell anemia got rejected for the 5th or 6th time. I honestly don't know what to do anymore. If I leave it untreated, my lifespan will be greatly affected. My aunt and uncle died around my current age because of it.

I work in the building next door. It's such a good neighborhood, quiet, nice shops, homes. This is horrific and it's infuriating. How does anyone believe this is about anything other than terrorizing a community?

Video of the ICE-kidnapping victim under a sheet. You will also hear the officer say he saw them moving. I am inclined to believe the person was alive.

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

The USA now has CONCENTRATION CAMPS The USA is torturing, starving, and killing adults and CHILDREN in these CONCENTRATION CAMPS Sick Disgusting Abhorrent WHAT HAPPENED TO NEVER AGAIN

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

ProPublica is publishing the letters of children incarcerated inside ICE facilities. If you are from another country, do not come here. Not even to visit. Some of these children have been inside almost a year and only came here for family vacation.

The FAA has issued a separate security NOTAM for Santa Teresa, New Mexico, banning all flight operations in the affected area for the same time window and altitude limits as the El Paso airspace closure, citing “special security reasons.”

The Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building looms in the background of the camp at Coldwater Spring, or Mni Owe Sni, at Fort Snelling along the Mississippi River — where the U.S. government in the mid-1800s killed hundreds of Dakota people and imprisoned more than 1,600 in a concentration camp.

Bloomington police announce arrests in sex trafficking bust: "Rashad Johnson out of Maple Grove. This is the most disturbing arrest that we've had here. He is a backgrounder for ICE, Homeland Security, and federal agencies."

There's a lot of kids in Minnesota missing. No one knows where they are. Not DHS, not ICE, not the local police, no one. They just know some masked unidentified people claiming they're police took them. No one knows where they are. And now we know who ICE is employing.

Journalist Mohammad Abu Thabet abducted after home raid in Beit Dajan.

The metro area is around 2.5 million people with no real alternatives nearby. It's one of the most isolated cities in the US.

The fact that sex offences committed by the establishment don't get reported on by the press until it's politically convinient to do so has me very confident that Epstein was an aberration and not simply the billionaire who got caught.

I do not think 11M Cubans should all starve and die because the US is still mad that they once almost got a little communism in there

An Israeli woman shares a video of herself shooting at tents and makeshift shelters in northern Gaza for amusement.

Sadly, this is why Democratic leaders needed to act when the iron was hot — to lead, get out on the streets, and mobilize public opinion. It may now be that their moment has passed and the public has moved on. If so, what a shame; what a lost opportunity.
