National Guard troops are still patrolling the streets of DC, more than a year after President Trump fabricated an "emergency" to deploy them. Every day these troops are in our communities is another day we risk normalizing their deployment.

The Trump administration has removed crucial reporting requirements, making it easier for ICE to try to escape accountability when people die shortly after being released from their custody. No one should die because of ICE's dangerous detention conditions.

Flock is feeling the pressure and now claims to be implementing changes to increase oversight of their mass surveillance network. We aren't buying it. More oversight won't solve the issue. Automatic license plate readers must be out of our communities for good.

"This place does not seem to be designed for humans to be here." Inside Camp East Montana, ICE's largest detention center, people describe the tent complex as abusive, inadequate, and dangerous for human survival. It's past time to shut it down.

It is *another* crime @anntelnaes.bsky.social
Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.

President Trump’s illegal war of aggression against Iran, in cooperation with Israel, actively undermines global security, raises the long-term danger of nuclear proliferation, and risks dragging the US into another dangerous and protracted conflict. Read UCS’s statement: act.ucsusa.org/3N9e4ZE
