  1. “De Facto #Dictatorship”: Democrats Confront #ICE, #CBP Officials on Brutal Tactics

    #DemocracyNow, February 11, 2026

    "House Democrats grilled the heads of ICE, CBP and USCIS at a hearing Tuesday over their role in the Trump administration’s brutal campaign to carry out #MassDeportations. 'These three directors are responsible for what we are seeing around the country, whether it’s in detention, whether it’s in the streets or even in the courts,' says Illinois Congressmember #DeliaRamirez, who is calling for her fellow Democrats to suspend funding for the Department of Homeland Security unless Republicans agree to their demands to rein in federal immigration agents. We play excerpts from Ramirez and other representatives’ remarks about the killings of U.S. citizens #ReneeGood and #AlexPretti in Minneapolis, the deaths of #immigrants in ICE custody and the fear and terror experienced by civilians confronted daily by masked federal agents. 'This is more than #authoritarianism. This is a de facto dictatorship,' says Texas Congressmember #AlGreen, who also spoke at the hearing."

  6. Per #NPR

    #KingDonald
    #MassDeportations
    #theguard

    The courts are weighing in on their legality. But — if successful they could also fulfill a long-running administration goal of employing America’s military to aid in the mass deportation of immigrants without legal status, according to an NPR review of past comments from Trump and his allies. It’s a move that would stray significantly from past federal use of the Guard, challenging laws that dictate how the military can be used domestically.

  8. Has #ICE renewed #TacomaWA #DetentionCenter contract? It won’t say

    By Alexandra Yoon-Hendricks, Sep. 25, 2025

    Excerpt: "The 10-year contract for the private company operating the #NorthwestICEProcessingCenter in Tacoma is set to end this month, but secrecy shrouds whether it’s been extended.

    "#Immigration advocates and legal experts have heavily criticized the lack of transparency over the expected renewal of the contract between Immigration and Customs Enforcement and #GEOGroup, which owns and manages the 1,575-bed, jail-like facility.

    "Neither GEO Group nor ICE officials have released information about a new contract for running the detention center. The current contract, inked in 2015 as a one-year contract with an option to renew each year for nine years, is set to expire Sept. 27. The contract awarded GEO Group a minimum of $700 million over 10 years.

    " 'It not only puts a veil over people’s eyes, but also prevents people inside the detention center from knowing what the future of this detention center is going to be,' said Josefina Mora-Cheung, director of organizing at #LaResistencia a local #activist group advocating for the end of #MassDeportations and the closure of detention centers.

    "GEO Group and ICE officials did not answer emailed questions about whether a new contract was signed or whether the existing contract has been extended. Officials did not respond to reporters’ requests to provide copies of the new contract, should it exist.

    " 'We cannot confirm pre-decisional contract selections, but we can confirm that ICE is exploring all options to meet its current requirements,' said ICE spokesperson Chrissy Cuttita in an email Tuesday."

  9. Trump Admin to Financially Reward Police Agencies For Working with ICE

    The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced on September 2 that it will financially reward local law enforcement agencies that carry out its anti-immigrant agenda, effectively creating an incentive system in which the more people wanted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that an agency abducts, the more money it stands to make. “Starting October 1, 2025…
