Padilla: It’s not just undocumented folks who are being detained and arrested. It’s legal immigrants—even US citizens. We know of at least 170 US citizens who have been caught up in these raids and put in detention centers. It’s the intended effect of this administration to stoke fear and terror

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.

here's today's post: "shh! don’t wake the elderly golfer. his own press conferences put him to sleep." — scenes from another batshit presser thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

The war zone in Portland is out of control.

New rule. If Congress doesn’t work, they don’t get paid. Who thinks that sounds good? ✋

Wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years & then snatched up by ICE. I dive into the case of Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam, who was convicted for a murder he didn’t commit and now faces deportation to India, a country he hasn’t lived in since he was 9 months old. youtu.be/9OjeiBrjc_Y?...

There is a stink emanating from the House of Reps created by the refusal of Johnson to swear in Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva. Very reminiscent of the stench that rose from the Senate in 2016 when McConnell refused to hold a hearing re Obama’s nominee for Supreme Court.Someone please file a law suit.

NYT: Head of the U.S. Military’s Southern Command Is Stepping Down, Officials Say Adm. Alvin Holsey, who is leaving less than a year into his tenure, had raised concerns about the recent attacks on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean Sea, one official said.

This is potentially a massive story. Did DOJ plan for survivors? Do they have sufficient evidence to prosecute? What is US jurisdiction to prosecute? Where will they go next? When is their court date? Will they be indicted? Held at Gitmo? Returned to Venezuela? Be Epsteined?

I love this 😊

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

"I have been so down and disheartened for weeks because people I loved voted for this. I'm so disappointed in you. You didn't really believe in equality." I posted it on Facebook so the former friends could see it.

Knit/in at the PDX ice detention facility in Portland today.

Exactly this.

Jeffries: "You've got Leavitt, who's sick, she's out of control. I'm not sure if she's just demented, ignorant, a stone cold liar, or all of the above. But the notion that an official WH spokesperson would say that the D Party consists of 'terrorists, violent criminals & undocumented immigrants'..."

Stansbury: These guys are trying to create a pretext for the deployment of the military against American citizens. And part of how they're trying to do that is by labeling them terrorists…

🚨BREAKING: North Carolina’s top elections official is pressing the state’s Division of Motor Vehicles for unprecedented access to voters’ full Social Security numbers — a move that could erode voter privacy protections and lay the groundwork for mass voter purges

Federal resources aren’t campaign tools. Secretary Kristi Noem's new TSA video crosses the line, violating the Hatch Act with blatant political messaging. We’re urging California airports to stand firm against this unlawful federal pressure and refrain from airing the video.

This sounds familiar.

Be afraid of not doing anything. They want you to be afraid. This is how Putin does it.

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that. No phones, no staff, nothing. I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!
