"On February 2, 22 Democratic members of Congress sent a letter to Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem interrogating the agency’s compliance with disability civil rights law—namely, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act—across its departments, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement. A similar letter in August, raising concerns that ICE’s treatment of disabled people may violate disability civil rights laws, was ignored beyond confirmation of receipt, according to the office of House Rep. Julia Brownley (D-Ca.), one of the signatories."

[en] "Whitewashing sends a dangerous message to extremists"
"#Violence in the name of the ruling party will be pardoned, if not encouraged."
A somewhat #controversial text by "a 9/11 first responder" in "Just Security", affiliated with New York #University School of Law. It associates post-9/11-#surveillance with "stronger defenses against both transnational and domestic #terrorism".
But:
"When the line between #counterterrorism and domestic surveillance blurs, #democracy itself is threatened."
"The difference now is who the tools are aimed at, if they are being politicized, who controls them, how transparent their use is, and how weak the guardrails are in protecting the rights of U.S. persons."
