Power, not panic. This evening’s ICE arrest at Hellyer Park in San José appears to have been targeted, not random. We are not seeing raids in Santa Clara County at this time. Loved one detained? Call us for free emergency legal support: (408) 290-1144, 24/7, any language.

Facts, not fear. Our team checked recent reports of ICE activity online, and most weren’t what they seemed. Here’s what we’re actually seeing in Santa Clara County and how we verify every report. ICE activity or need help? Call 24/7: 408-290-1144

And we are going to be part of the case to oppose this AGAIN. Proud that @sirenimmigration.bsky.social will partner with and be represented by @marcelias.bsky.social firm to fight this, AGAIN.

The horror has come to our city: ICE has shot a person in Austin this morning. As the facts emerge, I am demanding a full, independent investigation, immediate release of the body camera footage, and accountability for any ICE officer who broke the law.

This is tragic - there are members of my family who fought along US soldiers during the Vietnam War. I can't imagine the betrayal and anger I would feel if my supposed ally sought to deport a loved one and killed them in the process. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

On a heavy SCOTUS news day like today, NPR accidentally published an article saying that Alito retired. This would've been the best news today but now I can only sit dreaming of what could have been...

We applaud SCOTUS' decision in Chatrie v. United States. The Court reaffirmed that you have an expectation of privacy in location data that reveals your movements in the physical world, and that even short-term surveillance of these movements is a search subject to the Fourth Amendment. (1/3)

Senate Republicans just started a marathon voting session known as vote-a-rama in the Senate. Not to improve your life. Not to lower your costs. But to funnel $70 billion more to ICE and the abuses I saw at Delaney Hall. Not another dime.

I cant tell if they finally grew a spine or if they just got fed up with gas prices.

Despite being under Republican control, the House just defied President Trump on the Iran war. No amount of lying or bullying by the White House can make Americans forget we're paying for a senseless war. Now even some GOP Members of Congress are recognizing they ultimately answer to us - not him.

Oudone Lothirath was a 57-year-old Laotian refugee who came to the U.S. as a child in the 1980s. ICE detained him on Jan. 6 amid the Minneapolis sweeps. He missed 4 of 5 scheduled chemotherapy sessions for terminal Hodgkin's lymphoma. He later entered hospice.

"Pope Leo on Friday named a formerly undocumented immigrant who was smuggled into the U.S. in a car trunk to be bishop of West Virginia" From fleeing violence to working construction and other jobs, Bishop Evelio Menjivar-Ayala embodies the dignity of immigrant labor and the power of perseverance.

washingtonpost.comPope Leo picks formerly undocumented immigrant to lead West Virginia CatholicsPope Leo, who elevated Bishop Evelio Menjivar-Ayala and the Rev. Robert Boxie III, has drawn a clear contrast with the Trump administration on immigration and the Iran war.

A well-reported update on the 15 South American people ICE sent to DR Congo two weeks ago. Trapped in a rat-infested hotel by the airport with no options but going back to the countries they fled. This is what we're doing to legal asylum-seekers who "followed the rules." www.npr.org/2026/04/28/n...

The Trump administration just fired the immigration judges who ruled against deporting Rümeysa Öztürk (Tufts) and Mohsen Mahdawi (Columbia). I want to be clear about what this actually is and isn't 🧵

This is horrific. A U.S. citizen describes the facility in Arizona that her husband was brought to while he waited to be put on a deportation flight. Dozens of people were crammed into tiny cells, there was a "chain of people vomiting" from filthy toilets, no medical care, and only one meal per day.

Wow - and peaceful transition hopefully!

We're horrified and outraged by ICE's shooting of Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernandez. We hope he’ll make a full recovery and are keeping his family in our thoughts. AG @robbonta.bsky.social MUST investigate the Turlock PD's possible collusion with ICE - AND the shooting itself. Our full statement ⬇️

Your reminder that even if the war truly ended tonight, and Iran let every tanker sail through the Strait tomorrow, oil does not teleport, wells have been shut down and will take weeks or months to reopen, storage facilities have been destroyed, and refining capacity has been significantly damaged.
