We're aware of a phishing attack that has compromised more than 4,500 accounts. The attack spread through posts promoting a fake offer of a government payment. We have temporarily suspended the compromised accounts and are working with their owners to secure them and restore access.

Three ICE charters are currently staging for Africa removals over the next 24 hours. A small jet at Mesa, AZ, a small jet at Harlingen, TX, and a large jet at Alexandria, LA. All could include third-country removals, particularly the last one. Gonna be a bad week.

The next time Trump shows up at a rally wearing those giant braces, buttresses, and other contraptions on his legs and backside, I hope an attendee shows up with a really powerful electromagnet and points it at him.
