What nonsense! This is emphatically not the job that @USCISJoe was appointed to carry out. Most people applying for immigration benefits are not U.S. citizens, why would they have the "responsibility" of being one? It's pablum for the mass deportation masses.
David J. Bier@David_J_Bier

"I am declaring war on anyone that is coming to this country and wants to get a benefit but doesn’t want the responsibility of what it means to be a U.S. citizen." What. @USCISJoe doesn't know what his job is. Don't put an ICE attorney in charge of legal immigration.

This is horrific. A U.S. citizen describes the facility her husband was brought to while he waited for a deportation flight. Dozens of people crammed into tiny cells, a "chain of people vomiting" from filthy toilets, no medical care, and only one meal per day. It's unacceptable.

ICE is creating a humanitarian crisis in our own backyard. Feeding people one meal a day that makes them sick, overcrowding holding cells, denying medical treatment — they are denying people basic human dignity. Here’s what’s really happening: azcentral.com/story/news/pol…

Over and over the message this administration sends to federal employees is "Break the law, and so long as you're doing it to support our political causes, we'll let it slide." It is a recipe for corruption and impunity. Discipline has to mean something.

Thank you @KidRock. @USArmy pilots suspension LIFTED. No punishment. No investigation. Carry on, patriots. 🇺🇸

I just visited Dilley and met with kids who are too scared and traumatized to eat and go to the bathroom – let alone play. It’s horrific and should alarm everyone in our country. We can’t let them do this in our name. We need to shut down Dilley. propublica.org/article/life-i…

ICE disclosed in court use of an app designed by Palantir called Elite for operations, which populates a map with deportation targets, generates dossiers on individuals, and provides a “confidence score” on the person’s address. This can include a naturalized US citizen.
David Moore@ppolitics

In a federal case in Oregon, ICE officers admitted under oath they have daily arrest quotas and use Palantir's app ELITE for mass targeting. (January reporting by 404 Media, linked here, describes the app in more detail.) theguardian.com/us-news/2026/m…

ICE is rounding up thousands of people with no criminal record and throwing them into concentration camps where conditions are so bad that people are committing suicide while the guards bet on who kills themselves next

“As far as I can tell, it’s the practice of ICE to throw everybody’s documents into a black box and then lose it.” This is infuriating. motherjones.com/politics/2026/…

The right wing insists that our country can only be saved by voter ID -- while they also demonstrate they can revoke your ID at the drop of a hat with little more than a "sorry for the inconvenience." They're showing you the playbook page by page.
Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦@cmclymer

Transgender adults in Kansas have received letters ordering them to surrender their drivers licenses until they obtain a new one with a marker reflecting their sex assigned at birth. Their current licenses are now invalid. This also means trans people in Kansas currently cannot vote if their current license is their only form of ID. erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sends…

A truly AWFUL situation; last week Border Patrol dropped a “nearly blind” Burmese refugee off in front of a random donut shop in Buffalo, five miles from his house. He was just found dead, having never made it home.

What's more shocking than ICE's plan to cram as many 8,500 humans into massive, soul-crushing warehouses? Seeing the actual DHS floor plan that echoes slavery ships and history's worst gulags with no rec space but a gun range for guards My new column inquirer.com/opinion/ice-de…
