ICE is rounding people up in the Clear Lake area of Houston (home of NASA Johnson Space Center). They took all of the workers at a Spanish store near NR1 and 45 as well as from apartment complexes in the area. Even if people have the right documents. ICE tells them they are fake and arrests them.

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

Adrian Andrew Martinez, the 20-year-old U.S. citizen that was arrested by ICE while working at Walmart, sits down with our reporter, Aisha Wallace-Palomares, to give us insights into what he experienced. Amongst the new revelations, he shares that he was fired by Walmart.

Got a call from the wife of a cooperating witness in a case I prosecuted in the 90s. I’ve written a letter for him on occasion because he was a stand up guy who did a good job under duress. ICE just picked him up. He’s been in the country like 35 years.

We won't be broken by them. We break them.

www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8rQXnBm/ 3 more kids almost abducted by men pretending to be ICE. I keep saying it, when you can't tell law enforcement from criminals everything has gone wrong.

L.A. TACO has confirmed through its sources that ICE is currently at UCLA Ronald Reagan Hospital. UCPD is not cooperating and prevented ICE from entering. ICE is standing by in the lobby. 🧵

The Senate Medicaid cuts are worse than the House's. Call your Senator. Call other Senators. Call your mom to call Senators. Just call.

Am I the only person screaming inside that people picked up in raids can be reported to slavers, maybe never seen again? Please tell me I am not the only one. Please.

When a man says a woman should be mandated to carry and deliver and raise a rapist's baby, they are saying... They Believe They Should Have The Right To Rape A Baby Into a Person With a Uterus and Force that Person to Carry It. That is extreme. #dobs #abortion #prolife #antichoice #extremism

🧵 Yesterday I published an exhaustive guide of the kinds of help people and organizations are offering strangers access out-of-state abortion care. Today, on the 3rd anniversary of the Dobbs decision that makes the work necessary, I am gonna delve a bit into each helper.

NEW: The Supreme Court's conservatives halt a preliminary injunction that had restricted the Trump administration's ability to rapidly deport migrants to "third countries" where they have never lived and where allegedly face torture. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Translation: Book your own flights out of Iran, Americans. We’re not going to help you escape- Even though we’ve given you no advanced warning of our attack and placed you in great danger.

🇺🇸 #NOW @ #SanFrancisco a massive crowd takes the streets to say NO to war on #Iran and NO to war on our people at home!

Why am I so unimpressed by these strikes? Israel and the US have failed to target significant elements of Iran's nuclear materials and production infrastructure. RISING LION and MIDNIGHT HAMMER are tactically brilliant, but may turn out to be strategic failures. 🧵 1/17

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.

How long until ICE is used to target "sleeper cells" in Democratic run areas?

Protests happening today.

If you’re not outraged by this, you really should be.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

Fourth of July is our Independence Day. We can’t let them own patriotism. Let’s get out on the streets and remind them that this country is our country.

The US struck Iran.

Greetings! I’m here at Van Nuys Community Police Station Jail in Los Angeles, where independent photographer Anthony Orendorff is in custody until at least Monday. Orendorff was arrested Thursday while filming an immigration raid at the Costco in Pacoima.

The Senate GOP budget bill would impose a sweeping nationwide abortion ban by blocking Affordable Care Act insurers from covering abortion care in all 50 states. This extreme measure would override state protections & strip millions of women of their right to comprehensive reproductive health care.

NEW: Judge Farbiarz, now in writing, orders the release of Mahmoud Khalil on bail TODAY. AND—happy surprise—he reconsiders and adds a line forbidding electronic monitoring, as Judge Sessions did for Rümeysa Öztürk. He also forbids monetary bond due today. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

BREAKING: ICE agents are complaining that every time they go out wearing masks in unmarked cars with no uniforms or identification as law enforcement to abduct people, protesters keep dumping pounds of glitter on them so that everyone can tell they’re ICE for days afterwards.
