Sending @repilhan.bsky.social sincere admiration tonight.

Of course. And that’s why Dems need to lean in and work towards dismantling ICE. First no funding. Impeach Noem. Demand hearings on ICE’s operation in MN. Demand that Miller resign. Don’t let up.

Maher Tarabishi was detained in October during a scheduled check-in at an ICE facility. He was the primary caretaker of his son, who died last week. The family is seeking Maher's release so he can attend his son's funeral. ICE reportedly denied the request. Unimaginable cruelty.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot. "They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets." "They had the professional demeanor of criminals." ht: @paulgraham.bsky.social

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

Does this mean Texas gets invaded now? Or is that only after intrepid reporter Nick Shirley gets a scoop? www.fox4news.com/news/48-texa...

"You raise your voice, I erase your voice." ICE in Minneapolis are erasing your rights. Please share our new video of what's happening in our city. youtu.be/W1dyNcRGRXY

Here's what ICE is up to in Northeast Minneapolis today. Absolutely heartbreaking. Warning: video is hard to watch

Kash Patel this Sunday: “You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines, to any sort of protest that you want."

I’m HORRIFIED the way they are using KIDS‼️

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Bring it

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

In January 2025, the Washington Post urged confirmation of Noem and Bondi. Democracy Docket opposed them from the start. Subscribe to and support pro-democracy, independent media. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

He yells, “I’m a corrections officer”, but ICE didn’t give a sh*t. MAINE: 7 ICE agents against one “squeaky clean” corrections recruit. The sheriff said, “They all took off leaving his car with the windows down, the lights on, unsecured and unoccupied. Folks, that’s bush league policing.”

Tomorrow, the Democratic Party of Evanston members will vote to endorse candidates. Unfortunately, the DPOE misrepresented us on the ballot, didn’t tell us, and still has not issued a formal correction. So we’re doing it ourselves:

Something interesting to note: When Henry Cuellar was indicted, Lauren Underwood took over as the chairwoman of the subcommittee on appropriations for Homeland Security. Cuellar took over back when he was pardoned. Cuellar voted for the DHS bill. Underwood didn't.

At this point I should add that during Liberation Day, Trump imposed reciprocal tariffs on the Heard and McDonald Islands, which only has penguins.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Carney: "In a time of rising populism and ethnic nationalism, Canada can show how diversity is a strength, not a weakness... Canada can't solve all the world's problems. But we can show that another way is possible. That the arc of history isn't destined to be warped toward authoritarianism".

Ice needs to be abolished

It is important to acknowledge who is standing up and who is just trying to get by. Every day Americans are standing up while the powerful are mostly standing by. Why aren't law firms standing up and sending lawyers to Minneapolis. Why aren't the corporations speaking out? Why isn't the media?

“We know the old order is not coming back. We shouldn’t mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy… The powerful have their power. But we have something, too: the capacity to stop pretending.” — Canadian PM Mark Carney at Davos, basically announcing divorce from America and receiving a standing ovation

Two men in ICE detention say they saw guards kill a fellow detainee. Now the Trump administration is trying to deport the witnesses. This looks a lot like a cover-up. We need an independent investigation NOW. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
