We’ve raised 22% of our fundraising goal & need your help to cross the finish line. Can we count on you?

As @tomlatchem.bsky.social points out, the peak periods of violent + sexual criminal activity by ICE + CBP agents came during Trump presidencies. And, "The 80-year-old has himself been accused of sexual abuse by more than two dozen women, which he denies." thepunchup.substack.com/p/trumps-ter...

When I read the headline I thought, WTH? Then I read the article. This is exactly what we talk about in our new report. ICE creates needless safety risks on US streets. I am anti-Flock + also, this story is more evidence why ICE should not have guns or make street arrests. archive.ph/xQnkV
