Trump's move to fire 18 watchdogs has impacted those offices' work. If staff fear being fired, it's hard for them to conduct the oversight needed to ensure the government is working for you. Congress must restore the independence of the IG system. govexec.com/oversight/2025…

Many in Border Patrol would like to see the agency evolve into a national police force, which would be a super bad idea, not because they’re not trained but because they have a proven track record of violating the rights of citizens and non-citizens alike with impunity.

Border Patrol put citizens and non-citizens at risk with impunity and have for a really long time. This is not an agency that should be given expanded powers to conduct raids. BP should be defunded and taxpayer money used to invest in healthcare and dignified border jobs instead.

🚨HUGE news. The travel ban from Trump’s first term is back, and it’s even bigger than ever. Now the admin is also targeting Haiti, Cuba, and Venezuela — communities with huge immigrant populations in the United States, who are now going to face significant new restrictions.

This is a consistent finding throughout the academic literature. Numerous studies have found that, statistically, immigrants commit crimes less than US-born citizens, and communities with a greater share of immigrants have less crime. That holds for undocumented immigrants too.

7/ “Information obtained through investigation has revealed that” the Salvadorans were “heavily engaged with MS-13 and are laundering funds from illicit business where MS-13 are involved,” said the documents that we reviewed. Read here to find out more: propublica.org/article/bukele…

Bukele and Trump made the deal knowingly empowering MS-13. Trump has never cared about human security, but this sharp reporting still reveals some shocking evidence about how far he’s willing to go to carry out his white nationalist political agenda.

NEW🚨A Guardian analysis shows ICE has exponentially increased the arrest of immigrants with no criminal history. From Jan-June there's been an 807% increase in the arrest of immigrants with no record, contradicting Trump’s claims of targeting "criminals": theguardian.com/us-news/2025/j…

THIS is why oversight matters! Judy Chu confirms that ICE is holding people in terrible conditions; no change of clothes given in 10 days, filthy showers that aren’t being cleaned, and ICE preventing people from accessing phones where they could call their lawyers.

The mother of Adrian Andrew Martinez is pleading for answers as her son remains unaccounted for nearly 24 hours later. ICE kidnapped Adrian yesterday while he was on break in the Walmart parking lot in Pico Rivera. FREE ADRIAN!

WOW. Further confirmation from ICE HSI officers that they have been told to stop investigating pedophiles, human traffickers, and drug smugglers! Officers have been told NOT to take new criminal cases so they can instead go round up more random migrants. Morale is plummeting.

🚨NEW. A horror story emerges from hacked flight logs of the March 15 flight to El Salvador to be imprisoned without trial: mass disappearances. The data reveals DOZENS of people on the flight whose names were never disclosed before. All may still be locked up there today.

This new story from 404 Media provides the first public confirmation of the identity of some of the people who were disappeared by the Trump admin on March 15. In some cases, families knew they were there because they saw their loved one in pictures — but had NO confirmation.
