It reports that Google, Reddit, Discord, and Meta have received hundreds of administrative subpoenas from the Department of Homeland Security in recent months. The goal is to get information on the identities of people behind accounts found to be tracking ICE agent movements or criticizing the group as it carries out its operations, during which officers have killed at least two people so far in 2026.

The lawmakers provided examples of childcare workers ensnared by Trump's deportation push, including a nanny in Wisconsin, an asylum seeker with no criminal record who was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after a routine check-in, and immigrant teachers at a preschool in Washington DC who lost their work authorizations and were forced to quit due to TPS terminations by the Trump administration.

Police at the University of Minnesota arrested 67 protestors two weeks ago during a demonstration outside a hotel where ICE agents were staying, among them a street medic, a volunteer who is trained to assist protesters related to medical matters, who was there to "make sure that nobody got hurt."

A lot of times, athletes are hesitant to talk about political views and how we feel about things. I feel heartbroken about what's happening in the United States, Lillis said. I'm pretty sure you're referencing ICE and some of the protests and things like that. I think that as a country, we need to focus on respecting everybody's rights and making sure that we're treating our citizens as well as anybody, with love and respect.

A portion of a memo that Barry's sent to instructors last year about how to handle ICE is being shared across Reddit and social media. The snippet lists seven instructions, including remaining calm, stopping the class and staying at the podium. "Do not take responsibility for anybody other than yourself," it directs. The document goes on to say the studio leader will handle communication with ICE and clients.

In my previous post, I discussed the psychological violence being imposed on the Latine immigrant community through the implementation of new and insidious immigration policies under the current administration. Since that publication, this violence has intensified in both scale and visibility. Across many regions of the United States, the public has witnessed large-scale ICE raids in neighborhoods, workplaces, hospitals, school events, and even outside immigration courts, where individuals and entire families are apprehended as they exit mandatory hearings.

On Wednesday morning, well before the school run started, Mary Granlund was attempting to coax her dog outside for a brief walk in negative-two-degree weather, and her phone was already pinging with texts. "It's, like, 'Can someone help bring my kids to school today?' 'Can anybody pick my kids up from school today?' 'Has anyone called the police about the abandoned car?' " she told me.

Were it not for a last-minute reversal by President Trump, brokered in secret by a couple of billionaires and SF's mayor, San Francisco and Oakland could have easily descended into the same violent chaos, provoked by an ICE invasion, that we're seeing in Minneapolis. The Trump administration has, since Trump took office this second shameful time, been working their way down a list of enemy states and cities where federal agents have been sent in on a draconian mission

More than 700 small businesses, faith organisations, educators walked off the job to protest ICE raids throughout the city. Hundreds of businesses are closing their doors in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the midwestern United States, as anti-ICE protesters continue to call for the federal agency to leave the city as part of a large-scale economic protest that has been named The Day of Truth and Freedom.

She advocated that the best way to get these was to have neighborhoods filled with stores and restaurants. With local business providing a multitude of reasons for people to be active in city street life, eyes on the street would follow. It was these eyes that were mentioned by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz in his January 14 primetime media appeal for the public to witness and document the increasingly horrific actions of the agency known as ICE, the once celebrated U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement

The mood inside 26 Federal Plaza in Lower Manhattan is far less raucous than the ongoing ICE raids in Minnesota but no less tense. Very little has changed in the new year in the hallways of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza. Masked ICE agents continued to roam the hallways on Tuesday looking for individuals to talk to, and potentially detain, on the court docket and due to appear.

I wouldn't say he's concerned about the policy,

Schumer's office said he urged Trump to release federal funding for the $16 billion Gateway tunnel during the meeting, which they said the president requested. Trump last year said he was withholding federal funding from the massive public works project - which includes the construction of new rail tunnels under the Hudson River -after Democrats picked a government shutdown fight.

If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don't obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT, which many Presidents have done before me, and quickly put an end to the travesty that is taking place in that once great State. Thank you for you attention to this matter! President DJT (Screengrab via Truth Social)

You don't want militarized people in the streets just roaming around, snatching up people many of which turn out to be U.S. citizens that just don't have their papers on them. Are we really gonna be the Gestapo? Where's your papers?' Is that what we've come to?

My "handler" was a friend of a friend of a friend. That delicate linkage was a conduit of trust. Trust enough to meet me anyhow; ICE informants had made his work more dangerous. I would need to be tested and mettled before he would introduce me to the undocumented workers who trusted him. They were the story. I wanted to talk to them in the rippling shock of recent ICE deportation raids.

I'm losing everything.
