This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

Trump has claimed that states are “merely an ‘agent’ for the federal government” and they must do what the president tells them. “Almost nothing in that statement is correct as a matter of law,” Marc Elias says. Keep an eye on the people trying to rewrite the rules: demdock.com/4rSKLdE

🤔 Why did ICE investigate a popular skate and streetwear store? It’s all part of the Trump administration’s search for data to back up unfounded allegations that noncitizen voting is rampant in the U.S. Here’s how the two are connected: demdock.com/4rTHXNp

“What most political analysts miss is how strong and specific the authoritarian appeal is for white evangelicals, and how critical it is to at least weaken it. The roots of this confluence go back decades, if not centuries, and are deeply entwined with white evangelical theology itself.”

The torture of Christa Pike continues
She was declared brain dead on Monday, her attorneys said, and her team was informed of plans to remove her from life support the next day. "But on Tuesday, to the shock of everyone ... Christa woke up and began talking," Randy Spivey, one of her lawyers, said at a press conference on Wednesday.
He was told her first words were "Where am I?" and "Who are you?"
Pike remains hospitalized and shackled to her bed, despite pleas from medical staff for prison officials to remove her restraints, her lawyers said.
She has pneumonia, a blood clot, and is unable to move either of her badly injured arms, they added.

This was one of the more diabolical Trump admin moves on immigration; ordering ICE to stop taking biometrics for detained immigrants seeking immigration benefits from USCIS, which meant that the agency would deny their applications by default.
In December 2025, USCIS announced that DHS would stop collecting biometrics related
to USCIS immigration applications for people in its custody. ECF No. 14-2; ECF No. 14-3 at 2-
3. In its press release, USCIS said that going forward DHS "generally will not take biometrics of detained aliens unless they are in removal proceedings and have a pending application or petition filed with the Executive Office for Immigration Review." ECF No. 14-2. That means DHS would continue to collect biometrics only for certain applications for relief, including those that can be made to immigration courts (which fall within the Executive Office for Immigration Review), but not for applications for many kinds of immigration status, including the plaintiffs' applications
(which must be submitted to and determined by USCIS). See 8 C.F.R. § 245.2(a)(1) (adjustment

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."
