12/ We spent months compiling every case we could find of immigration agents detaining Americans. We did it because the government hasn't. And now, we're sharing every one of those cases with you. Explore our database: propub.li/4egbSK2
Screenshot of database titled "Explore All Incidents Where Citizens Were Detained." Text below explains that this is every incident ProPublica could find in which one or more citizens were reportedly detained between January 2025 and September 2026. There are 506 citizens' cases in the database, and users can sort by what the incidents involve, where the incident is located, and the recency of the case.

Feucht on a stop over in NYC en route to Israel- insinuating Christian’s don’t have a plan for this country but “communists have a plan, the Marxist’s have a plan, the Muslims have a plan” refers to Mamdani as a “Marxist Muslim Mayor”. Says the church needs to “rise up” blah blah

PRA’s @fredclarkson.bsky.social examines Markwayne Mullin’s connection to City Elders, a theocratic political organization deeply embedded in the New Apostolic Reformation. This relationship highlights the NAR’s expanding influence and dominionist agenda. Read more: bit.ly/MullingOverMullin.
One thing did not come up during the discussion of concerns about Mullin’s nomination: 
his involvement with City Elders.
U.S. Senator Markwayne Mullin at the Memorial for Charlie Kirk at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.City Elders is a Tulsa, Oklahoma-based political organization enmeshed with the theocratic New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) movement. City Elders is meant to be a model for governance at all levels that parallels the NAR’s model for the church.
Screenshot of “Senator Markwayne Mullin to City Elders” YouTube video. Credit: City Elders/ Youtube.com.The name City Elders is both a biblical reference and a description of the group’s focus on county seats as the planned locus of theocratic action. The group seeks to develop permanent political infrastructures to select and elect candidates for local bodies such as school boards and county commissions, to exert ongoing influence.
