"let me ask chat gpt" me:

This is an extraordinary story. ICE is doing *zero* background checks on their applicants. The author got officially hired at ICE despite being a prominent online lefty, failing a drug test, and not even completing the paperwork. ICE has *no idea* who it is they're hiring.

Investigating 6 yrs of deadly ICE shootings, journo Lila Hassan found that: "Not a single shooting we examined resulted in an indictment anywhere in the country, even in instances when ICE’s narrative of a shooting was contradicted by video footage."

The President can use the R slur, but Head Start programs can’t say “disability”. The President can call female reporters “piggy”, but Head Start programs can’t say “female”. The President can remove MLK Jr’s birthday as a National Park holiday, but Head Start can’t say “Black”

"Research suggests America is becoming more anti-Semitic because its young people are becoming more anti-Semitic. This finding flies in face of folk wisdom that prejudice is the province of the old and will die out with them. That may be true of some bigotries, but anti-Semitism

This man is a hero, a reminder of what light looks like amidst a great deal of darkness.

“If he gets deported, he’s really dead." Guan Heng risked his life exposing China's Uyghur camps, taking on-the-ground videos that served as evidence for investigators around the world. Now, after fleeing to the US, he's been detained by ICE and is facing deportation to China.

Yesterday I went to Rikers to visit one client for 45 minutes. The trip took 6 hours. I’m his attorney—for family members the wait times are even longer. Drastic changes must be made to ensure that the right to counsel & visitation are upheld.

“I identified myself as a US citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out. Even after I complied, I was taken to a detention center and held for 3 days without charges. No phone call, no
