How could they be in violation of law when all they did was to remind people in uniform of their obligation to only follow lawful orders? No brainer from the start.

Project Salt Box: How citizen sleuths are monitoring ICE in Maryland
Inside their homes scattered around the Baltimore area, the group of watchdogs is unearthing records, like property filings, contracts, and government procurements, that are otherwise overlooked.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Hey Bluesky followers of katzilla01. Sending a short note for my wonderful mother who adores being a member of this community and appreciates all of you. She asked me (her son) to let you know that she suffered a major heart attack, her 2nd, and while greatly weakened, she's hanging in there.
Time to put the feet up. I shall leave you with this from George Carlin

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE
As we await Senate action on the remaining spending bills, remember that Susan Collins could make a difference by stripping out DHS from the rest of the government funding bills. But she won't because she is just as MAGA as the rest of them.
A judge should not have to ever make an order like this. The order itself speaks volumes about the corruption of the federal government under King Trump's regime. They have removed their agent from the state with his firearm & they may have deleted the video on victim's phone.
Judge grants order barring feds from altering or destroying evidence in Pretti shooting

The sound you hear is the administration preparing to throw Miller under the bus. Will he get fired? Doubt it. But he will likely have less influence going forward, and that’s good for everyone.
All these Republicans slowly backtracking on ICE were the ones who went all in Trump and Stephen Miller's agenda. We won't forget. We also won't forget the Democrats who were complicit.
You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer. In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.
You’re watching the administration lose control of the narrative in real time. The more they show their supporters that they don’t give a shit about their gun rights, the worse it gets. I’ve seen over a dozen right-wing commentators call out the propaganda. That’s progress.
Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan. Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”
Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.
“I just checked—it turns out that Art. II, Sec. 1 of the Constitution of the United States does *not* say ‘The executive Power shall be vested in a bunch of sociopaths who think they can do whatever the f*ck they want and make sh*t up as they go along.’” — George Conway
Minnesota's Secretary of State has denied bribe for hire Pam Bondi's extortion request for the state’s voter rolls. So proud of Minnesota. Never bow to fascists.
Kash Patel today: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want." Really?

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.
ICE isn't law enforcement without training; ICE is white nationalism with guns.
