🚨BREAKING: ICE wrongfully deported a 25-year-old U.S. BORN citizen to Mexico… and he had to SUE the federal government to finally be allowed back into the United States.

Brian José Morales García repeatedly told authorities that he was born in Denver.

He told them he was an American citizen.

He told them he had a birth certificate, and Social Security number, at his home in Austin that he could provide.

And they deported him anyway.

According to his lawyers, the government deported Brian in April after a police stop near Fredericksburg. His citizenship was questioned, and ICE treated him as someone who had entered the country illegally.

Except he was born in the United States.

His lawyers later submitted additional evidence, including hospital records, witness affidavits, and a certified Colorado birth record confirming his citizenship.

And now, months after the government wrongfully deported him, Brian has finally been allowed to come home.

A U.S. citizen had to SUE the federal government, and produce an overwhelming amount of documentation, just to get back into the country he was born in.

And this is exactly why the argument that “if you’re a citizen, you have nothing to worry about,” is absolute bullshit.

Because what happens when the people with the guns and badges decide they don’t believe you?

What happens when saying, “I’m an American citizen…” isn’t enough?

What happens when you have to produce your birth certificate, your Social Security number, hospital records and witnesses… and even THAT doesn’t stop the government from deporting you?

So, when DHS say, “We won’t deport citizens.”

They already have. Brian is proof.

And the most terrifying part is that he was lucky enough to have lawyers who could fight like hell to get him back.

How many people don’t have that?

How many Americans could be detained, deported, or have their lives destroyed because an ICE agent decides they “look undocumented,” and didn’t believe them when they say they’re citizens?

That is why racial profiling is so dangerous, why due process matters, and why ICE agents violating constitutional rights puts everyone in danger.

And that is why giving federal agents more power, while demanding less accountability, is a dangerous combination.

Brian José Morales García was born in America… he told them he was an American...

They deported him anyway.

And months later, the government finally had to let him come home.

The word "socialism" is constantly thrown out at any attempt at social progress that challenges the rich and powerful.

We hear it used today — but this fear-mongering tactic goes back much further than most of us realize.

Heather Cox Richardson shares an interesting history lesson.

El-Sayed: Donald Trump cannot seem to keep my name out of his mouth. Habibi, if you can’t say the name, don’t say the name. “Abdul. Abull”. Do not say it like that. It is creepy. Holds onto the "L" a little too long. Natalie is going to show him this clip and he’s going to be so mad.

🚨BREAKING: A masked ICE agent was caught on a surveillance camera trespassing through private backyards, with his taser drawn, in Pompano Beach, Florida.

In the video, the masked agent can be seen walking through private backyards, searching each property’s patio, with his taser drawn… before walking away.

And we need to stop normalizing this.

The Fourth Amendment protects people against unreasonable searches and seizures, and requires the government to have a warrant, consent, or a recognized exception before entering private property to conduct a search.

Your backyard is still your private property.

Your constitutional rights don’t disappear because the person walking onto your property is wearing a badge.

And somehow, we’re being conditioned to see this as normal.

IT IS NOT NORMAL.

It should not be normal.

Because if the government can just walk onto your private property, with weapons drawn, and expect you to accept it… we’re not talking about immigration enforcement anymore.

We’re talking about a government that is no longer respecting the constitutional rights of the people it’s supposed to be protecting.

🇺🇸🇺🇸🧐🤔“AND YOU STILL DARE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH…”

Sasha Legerman: This is too accurate not to share.

This Australian’s response to Trump’s rant that “NATO does nothing for America” is absolutely devastating:

“Mate. You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight.

A country where 40% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money.

A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive.

A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy.

A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages.

You imprison more of your own citizens than any country on Earth.
More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea.

In the land of the free, 2 million people sit in cages, and a quarter of them haven’t even been convicted of anything.
They’re simply too poor to afford bail.

Your life expectancy is declining. You’re the only developed nation where that’s happening.

Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba’s.

Your children practice active shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell defense stocks to your friends.

Your minimum wage hasn’t changed in 15 years.

Your teachers work two jobs, your veterans sleep under bridges, and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you.

And now a convicted criminal — found liable for sexual abuse, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and running the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban — is thanking you for yet another disaster.

And you call Greenland badly governed?

Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world.
Nobody there goes bankrupt because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because insurance refused treatment.

‘NATO wasn’t there when we needed them.’

When exactly was that, champ?
September 11?

Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU.

Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU.

Australia wasn’t even in NATO, and we still showed up. For twenty years.

And then you left at 2 a.m. without telling anyone and left everybody else to clean up the mess.

You don’t care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend, and you haven’t shown it a single ounce of sympathy.

So maybe before calling other countries badly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum siding salesman with a spray tan.

The only thing badly managed in this picture is your damn mouth.

And you still dare to lecture the rest of the world?”

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨HOLY SHIT: The Getty journalist who captured the moment Trump did NOTHING as his guest fainted at the White House just won an award for the image.

Trump looks completely flustered. This has to be one of the most humiliating nights of his presidency.

[klw @Klynnwalker9]

And so, so, so much worse! Here's a list of things Trump has done that Biden never did:
Started a riot, bent on seditious conspiracy.
Pressured election officials to overturn a free and fair election.
Incurred 34 felony convictions.
Had to pay nearly $6M to a woman he sexually abused.
Had his name appear 10's of thousands of times in the botched and incomplete release of the Epstein files.
Got impeached twice.
Defunded federal agencies without the approval of Congress.
Sent masked men into our communities to terrorize, arrest and kill our Latino neighbors, and kill Americans.
Started an unprovoked and illegal war.
Called 1/2 the American populace enemies and terrorists.

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

This dinner is a disgrace. Trump’s rambling, unhinged speech is full of hate and spite. Just spewing nastiness at his usual targets. Let’s not sanitize how truly ugly it was. This would be a great moment for members of the press to get up and walk out.

[Markle Ω @MarkleResists]

@HunterBiden So we're giving nuclear bomb capability to the people that flew planes into our buildings?
Is that correct? 🤔

Trump is subpoenaing journalists for exposing his Qatari plane scandal— his Air Fraud One — a private jet he’s spent hundreds of millions of YOUR tax dollars on.

He is the most corrupt president in American history!

6 MONTHS SINCE THEY WERE MURDERED AND NO ONE HAS BEEN ARRESTED 🤬🤬🤬 NATION OF LAWS MY ASS 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

America asked Mohammad Nazeer Paktiawal to risk his life beside our Special Forces.

He did.

We promised allies like him safety.

Trump and ICE gave him detention.

One day later, he was dead.

His wife says ICE would not even let him have his asthma inhaler.

That is not strength. That is betrayal.

It tells every ally who ever believed America’s word that our promises expire the moment Trump needs another target.

https://t.co/du9bv2U4pY cannot stop ICE’s cruelty. But it can help people prepare before the knock, the stop, the search, or the arrest.

Know your rights. Make a plan. Share it with anyone at risk. Keep it FREE: https://t.co/ZhHJH8FyNd
