Received a lot of threats that if I posted another anti-Trump video horrible things would happen to me.

I will be posting our biggest and most important video in a few minutes.

🚨 Pete Buttigieg nails it:

“In a country that amended the Constitution to ban beer… then fixed it when we realized it was dumb… surely we can amend it again to say corporations aren’t people and money isn’t speech.”

Translation:

We corrected Prohibition.
We can correct Citizens United.

Democracy shouldn’t be for sale.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

We need to ask ourselves an important question about our AI future.

What happens to the human soul if we outsource basic functions - like friendship, creativity and problem solving - to machines? The answer shouldn't just be left to industry. It needs to involve all of us.

President Trump just nominated Kevin Warsh to be the next Chair of the Federal Reserve.

Here’s what you need to know.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

The arrests of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort underscore the gravity of this moment. This has never happened before in our history. We shouldn't pretend it's normal.

More reason for us to hold the line and demand a DHS budget that stops funding lawlessness.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

No new funding.

Kristi Noem must RESIGN.

Greg Bovino must be FIRED.

Suspend the LAWLESS mass deportation raids nationwide NOW — ICE is no longer just deporting dangerous criminals.

Send the border patrol back to the border.

End the militarization of ICE + the sick racial profiling.

End the perverse cash incentives that are bounties to perpetrate Trump’s cruel agenda.

Require thorough, real background checks for everyone, and 2+ years of training before even setting foot in the field.

INVESTIGATE and PROSECUTE every single federal agent who is breaking the law.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING: Protesters in Los Angeles just projected an anti-ICE video onto a building.

And it wasn’t just any building.

It was Twin Towers, an ICE-linked detention facility where LASD actively collaborates with ICE for deportation screening.

This is what resistance looks like when people stop pretending everything is normal.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

It should freak the American people out that Trump, Noem and Bovino lie so enthusiastically. He wasn't "brandishing a weapon". He wasn't attending a "riot" or "interfering in a crime scene". He was an ICU nurse exercising his constitutional rights.

We saw what we saw.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Change has never been easy. It takes persistence and determination, and requires all of us to speak out and stand up for what we believe in. As we honor Dr. King today, let’s draw strength from his example, and do our part to build on his legacy.

This is a good and important question.

In short: Yes, as a private individual, you are generally allowed to record ICE agents when they interact with you or are in a publicly accessible area, but there are some important nuances and limits.

What you typically CAN do:

1. Recording audio and video of government officials (including ICE) in public spaces or on your own private property is protected by the First Amendment (freedom of speech) in the United States. It is considered a way to hold the authorities accountable.

2. Recording the interaction with ICE at your door from your private property (your yard, your home) is generally allowed.

3. Keeping your phone in your pocket with recording turned on during a conversation is a common strategy.

Important NUANCES and WARNINGS:

1. “Two-Party Consent” states: Most states in the United States have “one-party consent” for recording private conversations, which means that you yourself must consent (you are one party). However, some states (e.g. California, Florida, Washington) require "two-party consent," which means that both parties to the conversation must agree to the recording. Recording a conversation with an ICE agent in such a state without their knowledge may be illegal. To be on the safe side:
· Clearly state that you are recording ("I am recording this conversation for my own safety and records").
· This makes it legal in all states and may also have the effect of making agents follow procedure more closely.
2. Do not interfere with work: You may not physically interfere with or block ICE agents from doing their job. If you get too close or create a dangerous situation, you may be asked to leave or arrested for obstructing public service.
3. On private property you do not own: You may not go onto private property (e.g. someone else's yard) to record without the owner's permission.

Recommendations if you witness or are part of an ICE interaction:

· Keep your distance (walk on the sidewalk across from you, not into a yard).
· Record clearly – possibly state the date, time and location out loud at the beginning of the recording.
· Focus on documenting, not escalating the situation. Be calm and respectful.
· Consider live streaming to social media or a friend. This creates a real-time public record and prevents your phone from being confiscated as “evidence”.

If you are the person ICE wants to speak to:

· You have the right to remain silent. Say: “I wish to remain silent and I want to speak to a lawyer.”
· You are not required to open the door without a warrant signed by a judge (not just an administrative order from ICE).
· Recording the interaction can be important documentation if your rights are violated.

Conclusion: You have a strong right to record public officials in the performance of their duty, but do so in a safe and smart way – preferably with clear notice of the recording to protect yourself legally.
