They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did.

It will be very hard for Democrats to take back the House and Senate. Meanwhile, Trump will send the military to crush protests, and when he gets desperate, he'll implement martial law. Eyes wide open, folks. 501132364

Thank you for your attention to this matter! 793992941

Reposted by Simon Durkinjamelle @jamellebouie.net · 09/06/2025what people seem to believe is that there is a large number of criminal, layabout immigrants who can be easily found and deported. they support doing so snd are dismayed by the deportation of otherwise law abiding people. the problem is that the criminal group is imaginary! 313129563319

And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be *the* story on the Sunday shows tomorrow. 295148524581

Simon Durkin @sidurkin.bsky.social · 07/02/2025I haven’t lost job yet but I will before too long. We help thousands of new Americans, all here legally, become productive members of society, teaching them English, helping them find jobs. Nobody is better off for these folks being cut adrift. It’s just mindless violence that we’re in this position 140
