How soon before the quotidian operation of law enforcement is critically hobbled by the loss of trust ICE practices have sown? Why should any "police officer" or similar be trusted on sight?

"Authorities are also telling people in the area not to answer their door for a police officer unless it's two officers together, or call 911 to confirm the identity of the officer at your door."

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

With the news from Los Angeles that David Huerta was charged with conspiracy and that the President and his Administration have authorized the National Guard to quell "riots" and "insurrection," I thought I might offer a historical parallel in case it's instructive.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

🚨 Tucked into the Republican BS Budget (section 70302) is a provision that would prevent courts from holding members of the Trump admin accountable via contempt rulings. Meaning, a judge could order an action (Ex: return illegally deported people), but couldn't force COMPLIANCE of those orders. 😳 🎧

Listen to @katiecouric.bsky.social. Trump’s Deadly Bill has a lot of concerning changes & provisions buried within. Pay attention. Call your Senators & tell them, “Hell no!” 📱 (202) 224-3121 💙 @sallydeal4.bsky.social

I'm too tired and busy to pitch this around. Do any public-facing science news outlets want to hire me to write "Everyone's sharing that footage about bottom trawling from the Attenborough documentary trailer, here's the truth about this widely-misunderstood fishing method?" DMs open.

🚨NOTE TO ALL MEDIA🚨 Trump did not ‘reverse’ tariffs. He did not ‘pause’ tariffs. He did not ‘climb down’ on tariffs. HE. INCREASED. TARIFFS. OVERALL. (📸 Washington Post)

The CMG employee’s email is similar to the Yuyuan Tan Tian Weibo post that summarises the WeChat article. It ends by defying the tariff war as a war for the right to development, which China has to safeguard: “关税战就是发展之战。发展是世界各国的普遍权利,而不是美国的专利。我们要做的,是捍卫我们的发展权利,是捍卫我们的经济继续企稳向好。”

Claim by the White House: The Supreme Court ruling made it “very clear” that Trump was “well within his constitutional authority” to carry out deportations under the Alien Enemies Act. What the Supreme Court actually ruled:

There are basically no cops here, just tens of thousands of people orderly protesting our fascist government from the New York Public Library to Madison Square Park. Volunteers are moving people in the right direction. It’s beautiful.

This won't manage the chaos, unfortunately. And far quicker than Trump expects, most will understand that baseline *and* his negotiating perfidy. This model can't endure the complexity of the failure he's courting. It's too linear, and that's not our world. And this matters because a lot of...

Attention White House: Thou shalt not joke about how you sent an innocent father of 3 to a gulag while his autistic son smells his shirts to remember him.
