Not only are ICE bounty hunters, who look more like criminals than law enforcement, abducting people from workplaces & off the street—we’re now seeing they’re being held in private detention centers w/some of the most deplorable conditions imaginable. REPEAT: people are profiting from this cruelty.

I sure as hell have noticed. How about you? 🤨

This is a modern day concentration camp with the same regard for human life the WWII camps had

He needs to be removed from office asap. He is dangerous and mentally unwell. How long will congress sit on their hands while he behaves this way?!

After ICE agents entered two Diocesan churches, San Bernardino’s Bishop Rojas adamantly speaks out: “Cease these tactics immediately, in favor of an approach that respects human rights.”

“Is there any sign of life?” “Have we heard a heartbeat?” “Does she feel any kicking?” “We don’t have the equipment to do that.” That’s the full 911 audio from a nurse inside an ICE detention center near Denver, calling for help as a four-months-pregnant woman bled and cried out in pain.

I love how the right is trying to scare us by saying the United States is turning into one of those European countries with great mass transit and free healthcare.

Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!

Congresswoman (D-Illinois) reports Kristi Noem will face charges for crimes being committed against people by offenders in masks. She asks us to continue recording what we see.

“ICE” bounty hunters made this possible. By making it easy to cosplay as federal agents: masked faces, no visible ID, no official vehicles, and gear that any yahoo can buy on Amazon. They look like criminals! 🚨 Man arrested who pretended to be an ICE agent while committing a robbery in Houston.

Brilliant. 10/10. No notes.

The number of manifestly psychologically unwell people in the highest levels of this administration should be unsettling to the world.

Amid allegations of inhumane and unsanitary conditions in ICE facilities, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is taking further steps to continue skirting congressional oversight. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Thank you, Glenn. We are all well aware. 🤣😂

The best way to reduce the cost of Medicaid is to name and shame big employers that pay their full time employees so little, they qualify for Medicaid

The top 3 most visible Democratic nominees in the November 2025 elections will be: Abigail Spanberger Mikie Sherrill Zohran Mamdani Dem primaries right now are not about left vs. right. It's about who is running the best campaign to be the toughest fighter for the people they hope to represent.

Watch this. Because this is the way: Local officials using their platform right, reaching out to the community. Ambrocio “Enrique” Lozano, affectionately known as “the popsicle man,” was reportedly abducted in broad daylight in Culver City. Masked man. White van. Cart left behind in the street.

Let's check in on that ceasefire:

Damn right!!!

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

Keep Exposing the EVIL!

Kicking warrantless ICE out!

That woman is my hero!

I don’t feel safe, do you?

Giannoulias: We passed a bill through our office that became law to make sure that automatic license plate readers could not be used in cases involving abortion or immigration. We found out a few weeks ago was that a law enforcement agency in Texas was using these automatic license plate readers

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

The United States never has enough money to keep people alive at home but always has enough money to kill people overseas.

I remember when our Military wasn't run by a disgraced Fox host and a convicted felon who is beholden to Russia. It was 6 months ago.

🚨 BREAKING: Iranian Retaliation Underway 🚨 Here’s what we know so far: - Iran has launched “Operation Glad Tidings of Victory” targeting U.S. forces. - At least 6 missiles fired at U.S. bases in Qatar. - Explosions heard over Doha, possibly intercepted. - U.S. jets scrambling over Saudi Arabia. 1/

He was humiliated last weekend. This weekend he bombed someone. My guess is there is a relationship between those two events.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

KTLA - Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all US Marines, pepper-sprayed and punched in the face by alleged federal immigration officers while he was working as a landscaper at an IHOP. He was then forced into the back of an unmarked car in Santa Ana.

“He has always worked hard to put food on the table for us and my mom,” said Alejandro. “He was always careful and always did his taxes on time. He never caused any problems and he is known as a kind and helping person by everyone in our community.” santanero.org/2025/06/21/l...

Former 🇺🇸 ambassador to Russia 👇🏽

Wut

Our nation and planet cannot survive four years of this. It is not sustainable.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

My daughter, drawing: “this is a pirate” Me: “oh does he have a sword?” Daughter: “*HE*?!?!?!?!?” Kid is learning early how to call out my implicit biases, good for her!

No matter where someone was born, the United States should never tolerate inhumane treatment. Yet right now, detainees in ICE custody are facing conditions that are simply unacceptable in any country that claims to uphold human rights, let alone one that prides itself on freedom and the rule of law.

Just to be crystal clear: bombing Iran is completely illegal.

My relatives in East L.A. — born in the U.S.A. — are afraid to go outside because masked men with guns are randomly snatching people off the street. This is a government terrorism campaign against its own people.

I know this can sound kind of silly at a time like this, but doing a war without congressional authorization is ample grounds for impeachment

So… People seem to think that we’re just done now? We bombed the shit out of three nuclear sites in a country we weren’t at war with, and that’s just… it? Oh, my sweet summer children.
