I took this photo on June 14, 2024, the day they finally connected the two sides of the Gordie Howe International Bridge in the middle. We just coincidentally were down there on that day!

The ACLU is raising alarm over a facial recognition app loaded onto the smartphones of immigration agents to identify and arrest people. "It's being used on the street in ways that are dangerous, that are totally unprecedented in this country, and that are, frankly, blatantly illegal."

So, if I'm following all this correctly, a bunch of internet shitposters who spent years screaming "don't tread on me" and warning about federal agents stomping out people's rights... have been hired as ICE agents to go around breaking into people's homes, kidnapping & shooting them

Congress did this. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act significantly increases funding for ICE, allocating over $170 billion for immigration enforcement, detention, and deportation activities. Approximately $75 billion specifically for ICE.
