FLORIDA — @angieforfl.bsky.social Nixon ♥️ : “I was a single mom for 12 years. I struggled. I was able to purchase a home for me and my daughter because the government did the right thing… Trump cut those programs. Those lived experiences are why I fight. You got me crying on TV.”

Pointing out that ICE is murdering people they’re not looking for clearly isn’t to say it would be right for them to murder the people they are looking for. It’s to highlight how they are bringing roving terror and arbitrarily death to the whole US population. There’s no containing their threat.

ICE accidentally published a watchlist of immigration attorneys. We need to know why ICE is tracking them and how it’s going to use that info. We sent FOIA requests for records on how the list was created, criteria for adding people to it, and related communications.
