📺 ICE’s acting director says he’s demanding Americans stop criticizing ICE.
Let me remind you: the First Amendment doesn’t ask for permission. It guarantees it.
If you don’t want political backlash, maybe stop doing things that spark it.
SHAME ON YOU AMERICA ‼️ A CHILD HANDCUFFED & SEARCHED
Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes - Anne Frank, 01/13/1943
Hidden in the toxic GOP budget bill is a provision aimed at restricting the power of federal judges to enforce court orders, making it easier for Trump to defy the courts.
This is a blatant attack on the rule of law.
Trump isn't king. Senate Democrats won't let this slide.
ICE agent points gun directly at innocent bystander—daughter of man they just arrested.
He drew his gun with one hand—at same time opening car door with the other.
Is this proper firearm training?
Her crime?—Daring to cry "He’s not a criminal" after agents grabbed her father off the street in front of her.
ICE raids in Memphis, Tennessee have ignited controversy due to their aggressive tactics and questionable implementation—raising accusations of racial profiling and civil rights violations.

Here’s the cold hard truth of what Trump is doing on immigration:
They are rounding up only the people who have taken steps to become legal OR workers from work sites. People who work, NOT criminals.
Is that what you voted for??
This is outrageous. A federal worker at our DC town hall talks about how employees are being asked to write letters stating their support for Trump. Our loyalty is to country not any particular president. As the woman said, “what the literal fuck.”
Migratory beekeeping, as practiced in Romania, involves transporting beehives to different locations to optimize pollination and honey production, a method that significantly enhances crop yields
Oligarchs are addicted to greed.
In 1982, there were just 13 US billionaires worth $14 billion.
Today, while 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, there are 903 US billionaires worth $6.8 trillion.
Enough is enough. We need an economy that works for all, not just the top 1%.
Lee: Would say it would be “illegal DEI” for a lesson plan on the Tulsa race massacre?
McMahon: I’d have to get back to you
Lee: Do you know what the Tulsa race massacre is?
McMahon: I’d like to look into it more and get back to you on it.
Lee: How about the book from Ruby Bridges?
McMahon: I haven’t read that
Lee: Have you learned about Ruby Bridges?
McMahon: If you have specific examples—
Lee: That was a specific example
Sec. McMahon and Donald Trump ended a billion dollars of children's mental health programs.
I asked her today if she had considered, even for one second, the impact of ripping these programs away from seriously mentally ill children with no warning.
Apparently she hadn't.
It's chilling that some people are fine pretending it's okay to erase the history of all people who have been historically oppressed and exploited, red lined, disenfranchised, underrepresented, and misrepresented. It's such a disturbing farce.
Hayes: Do you think holocaust education in our schools is a DEI program? There is no card for that. It’s just yes or no.
McMahon: I can look at whatever card I choose.
I asked Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the IRS if the President can legally tell the IRS to target a specific taxpayer.
He couldn’t give me a straight answer.
ICE agents arrest the wrong man again. They didn't ask for his name or ID. But they arrested this disabled man with a speech impediment anyway... for "resisting".
ICE detain the wrong restaurant worker—then arrest him anyway for "resisting."
Agents didn't ask for ID—or even his name—just tackled him down with no warrant.
Romeo has a speech impediment, making it difficult for him to communicate quickly to agents.
ICE later admit that he wasn't the person they were looking for—but detained him anyway even though he has no criminal record.
This happened at the Early Bird restaurant in Omaha, Nebraska.
The family do not know where Romeo was taken to be detained.

Trump's Education Secretary @Linda_McMahon's family is worth $3.2 billion.
The administration is trying to give her a huge tax cut, paid for by cuts to Medicaid and food assistance -- including for kids.
I asked her to explain why she needs the money. She refused.
Q: Will you exempt some products that families rely on?
Trump: “I don’t know. I’ll think about it. I don't know. I really don’t. I want to make it nice and simple. I’m not looking to have so many exemptions…”🤡
The VA has a list of 585 contracts they've cancelled, impacting veteran care. Have they shown us the list despite numerous requests? No.
Today, @SecVetAffairs refused to answer my direct questions about that list — further raising my concerns about the VA's lack of transparency.
