At least 32 people have died at the hands of ICE and Border Patrol so far in 2026. These are their names.
Max Granger@maxgranger.info · 2w agoI wrote about ICE & Border Patrol killings, and the normalization of mass incarceration and police violence. To date in 2026, at least 32 people have died at the hands of 'immigration enforcement'—more than one person a week, on pace to break all records. These are their names.
ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent. There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's Jeremy Rogalski found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off. Renee Good all over again.
The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti
This from Wissa ♥ Also, MOTD making it about England (and not what he says about the war) is a bit a ick. #NUFC

"Either way, the concentration of wealth at the very top is much higher now than it ever was during the Gilded Age. And these are numbers from last year, before the SpaceX IPO. The robber barons were pikers compared with today’s oligarchs." paulkrugman.substack.com/p/meet-the-n...

Imagine being a kid and learning both your parents were arrested by ICE. You’ll have to pay rent and survive on your own. I shadowed four siblings—US citizens near Mar-a-Lago—as they try to do that. I'll be thinking about their story for a long time 1/x www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
ICE took Mom and Dad. Now the Perez kids are home alone.
Four American siblings left to fend for themselves—and they're not the only ones.

New from me: The cops who AI-enhance blurry photos to try to catch suspects are actually just tampering with evidence, lying to the public and raising the risk of wrongful arrests
The Albanian people have been massively protesting for several consecutive days against slumlord crook Jared Kushner and Crimestress Ivanka seizing land in their country to the sum of billions of dollars to build a trashy resort. I hope they don’t stop until their evil corrupt deal is reversed.

“The amount the rich could squander on occasions like these in a period of repeated disasters appears inexplicable, not so much with regard to motive as with regard to means. Where, in the midst of ruin and decline and lowered revenues from depopulated towns, did all the money come from?” - Tuchman
Again, please share. In every aspect of American history you will run smack dab into the critical contributions of Black people. It’s not Black history. It’s American history. Trying to erase it is a fool’s errand. We live it every day. time.com/5836444/blac...

HUGE NEWS: ICE’s courthouse arrests have been STAYED by a New York district judge. That means that ICE will have to stop arresting our immigrant neighbors on the spot when they show up to court at places like 26 Federal Plaza, 290 Broadway, and 201 Varick. (1/2)
Dan Goldman is unleashing his massive personal fortune into this race. A blatant attempt to buy this election and subvert the will of NY-10 voters. He may have the money, but we have the people. Can’t thank @elizabeth-warren.bsky.social enough for coming to NYC to support our grassroots movement.
A group of Ecuadorian fishermen survived a US drone strike, were detained at gunpoint, hooded, phones wiped, ship blown up, disappeared to El Salvador, then released without charge. “They knew we were fishermen. Even the Salvadorian authorities said things had been handled very badly.”

Less than a week ago, there were several prominent voices on here saying that they were sure Orbán was going to cancel Hungary's election. And casting that as a preview of coming horrors here in the States. Well, Hungary had its vote, Orbán lost in a landslide, and he's conceded.

given education polarization and MAGA's reliance on low propensity voters, something like the SAVE Act would almost certainly backfire on republicans (i'm reasonably sure senate republicans understand this too)

Renee Nicole Good. Alex Pretti. Silverio Villegas González. Keith Porter. Marimar Martinez lists the names of people murdered by ICE agents. She was the first citizen they tried to execute. They didn’t succeed. She’s using her voice on behalf of those whose voices were taken away.
Secretary Noem needs to be impeached and she must be held accountable for the viciousness she has unleashed on our communities.
