Do you want to talk about the root causes of migration?

US rice in Haiti.
US corn in Mexico.
US guns in Guatemala.
US coup in Honduras.

Let’s talk.

What we know: They’ve spied on people exercising free speech. Targeted Black Lives Matter protesters and Pro-Choice advocates. Often singled out American Muslims for unwarranted scrutiny. Distributed error-filled reports. See

You’ve probably never heard of a “Fusion Center.”

But a Fusion Center has probably heard of you. 👀

They collect a terrifying amount of our private data: who we are, where we go, what we do, who we know.

And they operate largely in secret. 2/

BREAKING: SB 1095 by Sen @SashaReneePerez, “Expose Data Deportation Centers,” just passed out of its first committee! We’re proud to co-sponsor this bill, the first-EVER in CA to seek transparency and accountability from secretive, shadowy entities known as “Fusion Centers.” 1/

@jbendery Seems like it could’ve been a good talking point for Dems to begin with. But we’ll take it. Bullies will back down. Now keep pushing !

🚨DUCKWORTH CONFIRMS:

DHS could have been paying TSA agents all along using existing funds.

Additional raw footage from new angle. 👇

This woman is U.S. citizen traveling with her young daughter—according to witness who filmed video.

She could not prove her citizenship to satisfaction of the agents—and was violently taken into ICE custody.

ICE is not at airports to help TSA and reduce lines. They are there (without identification) trying to arrest people, exactly as I predicted.

ICE must be abolished.

This guy personally bombed fallujah and yemen, was financed by Peter Thiel, loved Nick Fuentes’ work, but even this war was too insane for him

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.

I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.

It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.

May God bless America.

Straight up Nazi science. This is from Trump. The head of the GOP.

6/ NBC reports that Noem has overseen “a tenfold increase in the use of the Coast Guard's aircraft for immigrant deportations.” The numbers are staggering - 750 flights redirected!

Under Trump, Noem, and Steven Miller, ALL agencies of DHS are becoming inseparable from ICE.

[S.G. Sarmiento @sg_chambita]

Uncover the truth !

[ICE out of CA @iceoutofca]

12/ AB 1537 will help us get ANSWERS.

It will bring needed transparency and create a clear statewide standard that will close this loophole.

Onward!

3/ So according to the San Bernardino Sheriff, every single Sheriff should set their own policy on exactly when and how a deputy could take a side job working for ICE to abduct our neighbors?

[S.G. Sarmiento @sg_chambita]

@iceoutofca 👏🏽👏🏽

[S.G. Sarmiento @sg_chambita]

It’s really not complicated, and shouldn’t be controversial.

#IceOut

[ICE out of CA @iceoutofca]

The No Side Jobs for ICE Act (AB 1537) is common sense: local law enforcement shouldn’t moonlight for ICE or other agencies abducting our neighbors.

Why are some police and sheriff associations OPPOSING this legislation?

We need to uncover the truth 🧵

#SOTU Here’s the truth. Sanctuary policies are a bulwark against fascism. They uphold due process for everyone and make sure our local tax dollars are used for our local needs – not to help ICE abduct and terrorize our neighbors! 1/
