"Over the last month, ICE has purchased over half a dozen commercial warehouses. Now they are fully owned federal property and intends to convert these warehouses into makeshift detention centers or camps, essentially, where in some of these warehouses, upwards of 8,500 to 9,500 immigrants are going to be held at any given time."

Susan Demas and Amanda Moore survey Bovino's legacy of violence in Minnesota and conclude that it's all about the videos, all performative, for-show, all about "revel[ing] in the mayhem of targeting protesters."

They're playing to the hateful glee of their MAGA audience, as they play with real human lives.

Bovino's Legacy of Violence in Minneapolis | First Draft with Susan J. Demas & Journalist Amanda Moore

"It really seems like with these shows of force in Minneapolis ... apprehending immigrants isn't the point. It seems like the brutality itself is the point."

By & large, #Republicans are defending the #Trump administration’s #immigration crackdown, while #Democrats are forcefully criticizing it. One exception was Rep Michael McCaul, Republican of Texas, who is retiring. He called on #ICE to stop “roving patrols” in American cities, even as he maintained that the admin was already successfully reorienting its #deportation campaign, which he framed as necessary.

I don’t see the public or the Congress getting much out of this committee hearing.

Though #Republicans voiced dismay & skepticism of federal #immigration enforcement operations in the immediate aftermath of #AlexPretti’s killing, that outrage seems to have dissipated in the weeks since & faded back into partisan immigration politics.

<14% of ~400K #immigrants arrested by #ICE in Trump's 1st year back in the WH🚨had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses, acc to an #DHS doc.

The ofcl stats contained in the doc *not previously reported publicly, provide the most detailed look yet into who ICE has arrested during the Trump admin's far-reaching #deportation ops across the US.

Many of these IMMs are suffering in FOR-PROFIT #detention #DeathDamps -some: deported.

Less than 14% of those arrested by ICE in Trump's 1st year back in office had violent criminal records, document shows

The official DHS statistics, which had not been previously reported, provide the most detailed look yet into who ICE has arrested during the Trump administration's crackdown.

"The Fifth Circuit has ruled against 30 years of precedent in favor of indefinite ICE detention, which more than 360 other judges have already rejected. And not just at the border, everywhere. Maybe SCOTUS will step in? Sad laugh."

"A decision by a three-judge panel of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals endorsed Trump’s dystopian contention that any immigrant subject to deportation must be held without bond until final disposition of their case. The decision was a surprise outcome that flies in the face of hundreds of contrary holdings over three decades."

"ICE’s latest recruitment ads — built around music and language drawn straight from far-right neo-Nazi memes and aimed at extremists who are most fervent about guns, tactical gear, and vigilantism — are being distributed by and are profiting two companies you probably use all the time: YouTube and Google."

What you can do to stop big corporations from helping ICE

You are not powerless. You can stop their complicity in this humanitarian disaster.
