The husband of Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-Deremer — who herself is under investigation for an affair she had with a subordinate, and also instituted a monthly prayer service at the department — has been banned from HQ after two female employees reported he sexually assaulted them.

NEW — An obscure Navy contractor program is making Trump’s plans to quickly build out and supply immigrant concentration camps around the country a reality. Here I explain WEXMAC TITUS, an acronym you need to understand:

NEW — I spoke with Rep. Delia Ramirez (@ramirez.house.gov) about her calling DHS leaders "inheritors of the Klan hood and the slave patrol," the prospect of one day seeing them behind bars, and what it's like to see the public [finally] embrace her long-held dream to abolish ICE. Our conversation:

"Some were as young as 13, and at least half of those taken in so far became pregnant as a result of rape, sources said."

Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.

"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.

NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship. Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

Spectacular reporting by @wired.com

Very underreported story. youtu.be/_eqt8vrtP-U?...

We are in the midst of another racial reckoning. This one purging all the gains of the former and then some.

This is amazing.

Hell of a thought experiment. youtu.be/p0fHP4w_cuo?...

Not enough. Every single ICE and CBP agent should be out of Minnesota. The terror campaign must stop. ICE must be abolished.

"The scientific literature shows that more than 120,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023. If one attempts to account for the most obvious of design limitations in the Gaza Mortality Survey, it’s clear that the death toll is likely greater than 215,000." - @ferozesidhwa.org

When you’re asked to explain lawless actions. Every cabinet Secy is just making it up as they go along w/the sole goal of doing Trump’s will, leaving the next cabinet member to stumble around trying to make lawlessness make sense.

"For much of the 2010s and likely before and since, it appears the crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undocumented immigrants in the United States." www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...

NEW: since last year, a pair of "highly trained" feds have been involved in an array of incidents attacking crowds with chemical weapons. We used public records and open source analysis to identify Edgar Vazquez and Michael Sveum, alongside some other members of their tactical team. Read more:

Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

I personally do not think some rich man should be able to buy an institution like this like a toy and then break it when he doesn’t want to play with it anymore. bsky.app/profile/benm...

Please speak up for Rodney. A year in an ICE camp is beyond comprehension. Public pressure works. If enough people speak up, a life may be saved. Many of the deaths in ICE custody have been due to medical neglect… let’s make sure Rodney isn’t one of them.

UPDATE!!! The Tribune Editorial Board endorsed the AlPAC candidate in my race partially because she left the IL progressive caucus because she supports unconditional military aid to Israel. In their eyes, it’s “a principled position for a principled Democrat.” www.chicagotribune.com/2026/02/03/e...

i think telling him to shut the fuck up to his face would heal me

WOW: State leaders say NH Governor Kelly Ayotte lied about her knowledge of ICE's plan to build a giant human warehouse in the state. Documents obtained by @aclu-nh.bsky.social show the state government has known for weeks about the Merrimack facility bc ICE is actively pursuing legal approval.

A white man in Dillard, Oregon was arrested for stopping people on the freeway to demand at gunpoint that they tell him if they were citizens. He shot and missed one + attempted to get another in his truck to bring to police. Before his spree, he called local PD to complain about "foreign" people.

CBS censored Billie Eilish saying “Fuck ICE” at the Grammys. Here’s the uncensored version:
