NEW: Amid local opposition, ICE has ditched plans for an 8,500-capacity facility in Byhalia, Mississippi. “I just spoke with DHS Secretary Noem about the proposed ICE detention facility in Marshall County. ... I appreciate her for agreeing to look elsewhere,” Republican Sen. Roger Wicker says.

I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.

It’s so heavy when you are going to get groceries and you find a car sitting with its windows broken out and it’s empty but still running and someone’s stuffed animals or pictures or papers are just laying all over the road. I have personally seen at least five of these in the last three days alone

This is bigger than stopping ICE/ CBP or passing a law. It's about how both parties have allowed law enforcement to run the country, determine every policy, spend profligately, and lobby endlessly all on the taxpayer's dime.

This is f*cked up! There isn’t any law in this country that requires you to provide proof of citizenship on the interior, but unfortunately ICE is racially profiling. And they don’t care if you say you’re a US citizen. So where does this leave everyone? If you don’t look white, you’re in danger.

The ultimate Law Enforcement Baronial Class move is to claim that any discussion of law enforcement that is not slobbering praise is a crime. Yet, interestingly, law enforcement not only insults people (and that is okay); it also kills them.
