ICE can not be reformed or regulated. ICE needs one thing and one thing only. Eliminate it. Prosecute those who have murdered, assaulted, raped and robbed. Make them into societal pariahs, unwelcome among decent society.

Interesting stuff...recently read that some countries in Europe base traffic fines on a person's income. So the more you make the more you pay, thus it hurts if you make 40,000 a year or 400,000 a year. Equal financial pain, the way it should be if you violate the law

After ICE shot and killed Lorenzo Araujo, the FBI leaked to Fox News a claim that he was found with possible meth in the van. His family said it was a total falsehood; it was a bag of salt to be used to make an electrolyte drink. And they were right. It was not drugs.

We can confirm the substance found in Lorenzo Salgado Araujo's van tested negative for narcotics/ illicit drugs.
We are not commenting further on the test results, as the investigation is pending.

Hey @chicagotribune.com Editorial Board: Why did you describe me as a “bomb-throwing influencer”? This is wrong, inflammatory, and racist. Change it. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/07/05/e...
So far, the Democratic Socialists of America's success has been confined in large part to deep-blue city districts. Meanwhile, in suburban areas and in statewide contests establishment Democrats generally are winning against progressive challengers. Chicago saw its own version of this dynamic in March in the hotly contested and crowded race to succeed retiring Rep. Jan Schakowsky in the 9th Congressional District. The bomb-throwing influencer Kat Abughazaleh, 27, won the portions of that district in Chicago's North Side lakefront neighborhoods, but suburban votes gave savvy
Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss the win.
