Echoing the pope’s moral warnings, Tobin says the “lawless organization” is perpetuating a “machinery of death.” This marks the first time a senior Church leader has explicitly called for ICE to be defunded. More are expected in the coming days.

Pope Leo’s top U.S. ally — Cardinal Joseph Tobin — calls on Congress to defund ICE.

Feds are trying to use coercion to stop ICE watch activity in Maine: “The volunteers in Maine say federal agents have started showing up at their homes and intimidating them or threatening arrest. Some of them, masked and wearing tactical gear, have issued stark warnings not to follow them.”

NEW: The Atlantic reports Greg Bovino has been REMOVED from his role as Border Patrol “Commander at Large” and will return to his former job in El Centro, California, where he is expected to retire soon. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and “adviser” Corey Lewandowski are at risk of losing their jobs.

This is awful. Period. As well, have these armed masked aggressive men (mostly it seems) carrying out these ICE and BP raids who @raskin.house.gov suspects have J6ers among them had background checks done to see if they have records in abuse/violence etc...? www.texastribune.org/2026/01/24/i...

Trump is trying to pull a Venezuela in Minnesota. He's whipping out one face but leaving the power structure in place. But Minnesotans have their eyes wide open - and cellphones rolling. #Minneapolis #Minnesota #ICE

Duh! Of course ! www.cbc.ca/documentarie...

It's taking a LONG TIME to get the camera footage from Alex Pretti's phone, which was last seen in the possession of federal immigration, and this makes me think it is worse than we thought, if that's possible.

This is awful but important to see as we associate this with lawless chaos in countries with militias on the loose.

"This isn’t about immigration enforcement. This is straight-out fascism. ... They are using the mechanism of armed officers with masks who are beating up and killing citizens to create disruption, so they can use more force to eliminate the possibility they could be removed from office."

This is America today; state-sanctioned #childabuse. @ameracadpeds.bsky.social @aclu.org @aclutx.bsky.social @humanrightswatch.bsky.social @amnesty.org #UnitedNationsConventionontheRightsoftheChild What if the "worst of the worst" are the folks running America?

Where are children of America left to protest ? Where are the adults in charge to protect them?

BILL CLINTON: "Over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we make and the actions we take will shape our history for years to come. This is one of them. If we give our freedoms away after 250 years, we might never get them back."

Discuss.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

"You know who doesn’t investigate the killing of people by their government? Authoritarian governments that rule by force with no accountability to their citizens."

NBA Players Association: We must defend the right to freedom of speech and stand in solidarity with the people in Minnesota protesting and risking their lives to defend justice…We refuse to let the flames of division threaten the civil liberties that are meant to protect us all.

This witness to Alex Pretti's murder not only refutes the governmen't story, but says she is afraid to go home because federal agents might arrest her. This is what it feels like to live under state terror. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

Fascinating.

Beyond helping establish DHS itself in 2003, Mr. Mitnick was a senate-confirmed Trump choice for General Counsel for DHS in his first term. I've talked with him a few times, and he's not a man for hyperbole. So bear that in mind when you see him calling out DHS's "lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty."

Beautiful film balancing dark with light + wit. Beautiful musical performances (the actor who plays Clyde - amazing voice; Mary, too). The film's characters seek escape, through soul-lifting music and community, from loss,horrific realities. We can definitely relate. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YL4...

The CBP agent pushes a woman onto the ground and peppers sprays her, the man is trying to protect her from them and help her up, which they respond to by pepper spraying him, tackling him, and then shooting him from behind. It’s one of the most upsetting things I’ve ever seen happen in America
