New: We found 50 cops who misused Flock cameras and other license-plate readers for personal purposes, often to spy on their girlfriends or ex-wives. He "watched every single move I made. ... Who do you turn the chief of police in to?" wapo.st/3S6rTuo

BREAKING NYT: Federal agents around the country were told in recent days that the FBI would no longer investigate confrontations with immigration agents — cases that sometimes yield evidence that could be used to prosecute DHS agents implicated in violent encounters.

I'm starting an ICE Air podcast with @jjindc.bsky.social, called Worst Airline Ever. First ep will drop soon. I get most of my news from podcasts tbh, maybe you do too? It'll be depressing and enraging, yes. BUT we'll also tell you what you can do to fight back. www.patreon.com/cw/worstairl...

And too often we see this as putting the U.S. at a disadvantage, as if some other country will do all the research instead. Much of it won’t get done. It’s planetary loss.
Insane self-blinding of the US. They are throwing away their investment in the ocean observation system and the benefits it provides. The only explanation I can think of: they don’t want the people to know what their fossil emissions are doing to our oceans. easternherald.com/2026/06/13/u...

This flight made yet another stop, to the Republic of Georgia, that I hope was just for fuel but was probably also a deportation. Meaning people would’ve been shackled for 50+ hours. Longest one I’ve recorded this year. (The longest I’ve ever recorded is 82 hours, in December.)
God almighty, Uzbekistan wasn’t the last stop. This ICE flight continued on to Pakistan via this circuitous route. Migrant passengers onboard will have been shackled for at least 43 hours.

Fetterman was the deciding vote on advancing Mullin’s DHS Secretary nomination. With the GOP committee chair Rand Paul voting no, Fetterman could have single-handedly thrown sand in the gears of the agency of ICE, mass deportation, rights violations, and concentration camps. He chose the opposite.
Even though Markwayne Mullin has vowed to champion the same mass deportation agenda as Kristi Noem, Fetterman just voted to advance Mullin's nomination as DHS secretary. Fetterman could have blocked Mullin's nomination. Instead, this supposedly Democratic senator decided to back the regime.

The judges in WV have seen enough. They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings — including against state officials who help them carry it out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

ICE "should be abolished, but also it should be prosecuted" - Democratic Rep. @sethmoulton.bsky.social, from the centrist wing of the party, tells me he wants his party leadership to go further than just reforming ICE. Doing that is "no longer believable." Full interview: zeteo.com/p/moulton-ic...

🚨This plane landed in Portsmouth, NH, to refuel but sat there for 8 hours and is now headed back to Alexandria. This is how the 75-hour shackling in Oct. and the 82-hour shackling in Dec. began, w false starts. Migrants will likely be shackled in a holding area near tarmac until they try again. 1/
Another long-haul deportation flight likely in progress. This will be Omni’s 20th ICE trip in the 7 1/2 weeks we’ve been in 2026. Dozens of blue state and swing state public-employee retirement funds are invested in Omni’s private-equity owner, Stonepeak.
