Mia Valentina Paz Faria A 7-year-old from Venezuela who was living in Austin, Texas Detained for 70 days โI donโt want to be in this place I want to go to my school.โ
UPDATE: Staff at the ICE concentration camp in Dilley, Texas have begun raiding the dormitories of kids and their parents to confiscate and destroy letters from the children. This is in response to the ace reporting by @micarosenberg et al for ProPublica:

On January 10, 2026, while driving back to work after getting lunch with his father and cousin, a car quickly passed O., sped up, then stopped in front of him. (Id. ยถ 3.) A few men in civilian clothes stepped out of the car and asked for his identification. (Id.) The men threatened O.โif he did not get out of the car, they would force him out. (Id.) O. exited the car and was told he was under arrest. (Id.) The men handcuffed him and did not allow him to bring his phone. (Id.) O. felt like he was being kidnapped. (Id.) The men detained O., his father, and his cousin, taking them all to Whipple. (Id. ยถ 4.) At Whipple, there was โfood scattered on the floor, the floor was sticky with mud, and everything stuck to your shoes.โ (Id. ยถ 5.) The space was so cramped that sometimes there was no space to sit on the floor. (Id.)
The horror stories rolling in from Minnesota are just the tip of the iceberg. This 20-year-old, who's lawfully present in the country, was arrested for being Latino, then jailed in a filthy cell where he couldn't even sit down. 18 days of illegal detention. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...
Yes, weโve read the same column. I see many, many mentions around what youโre focusing on about how much human reporters touch every part of the process. Using AI for efficiencies is something student journalists can/should learn, and thatโs the point of the column.
Did you read the column? He doesnโt say โlet the machine write for you.โ
If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October ๐ฌ), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.
This is why domestic "shuffle" flights between ICE detention centers have skyrocketed, much moreso than ICE deportation flights.
When you are moved to a different jurisdiction, you have to refile your habeas petition all over again. They want to wear people down so they'll give up on their cases.
Calling out fascism is not threatening to anyone but fascists.
Here's what DHS doesn't want you to know: Working for ICE is one of the safest jobs in America โ and last year was the second-safest year for the agency on record.
And the doxxing? It hasn't actually happened even once.

Lyonsโ claim that 60% of people in detention have a pending or final criminal charge is false. The number is exactly backwards. Approximately 60% of people in ICE custody have NO conviction or even a pending charge. And only 5% have a conviction for a violent crime.
Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.
โHe canโt sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, โDaddy, Daddy,โโ Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.
NYT confirming MS NOW reporting:
Prosecutors began investigating Renee Good's killing, then Washington told them to stop.
Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.
ICE has grabbed so many people from their vehicles that there are abandoned cars across Minnesota.
This tow truck driver returns the cars for free as a public service, and heโs been getting death threats.
They hate the helpers.
Which is why must keep helping.

This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US โ and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.
No. Try again.
These people are terrorists. Full stop.
They just blindly shot through the fucking door.
"Additional photographs show damage consistent with a bullet fragment lodged in a bedroom wall down the hallway โ suggesting it traveled between a mattress and a portable crib in a room where several small children sleep."
Incredible reporting. Hereโs the email that launched an intrusive and frightening investigation:
On Tuesday, Feb. 3, from 12:15-12:45 p.m., join us for a conversation with Strib journalists about the stories and images that are defining this moment for the state and far beyond.
Federal paramilitaries running up on the rooftops to fire irritants and flash bangs down into a peaceable assembly full of little kids
This. Remember they cut healthcare for this.
Just visited with Liam and his father at Dilley detention center. I demanded his release and told him how much his family, his school, and our country loves him and is praying for him.
In the last days, there has been an unprecedented attack targeting investigative journalists trying to seize their Signal accounts. This has gone largely unreported. I have been repeatedly targeted by phishing, and I learned that also colleagues from other outlets were targeted, with the attackers unfortunately managing to compromise at least one colleagueโs account. Whatโs worrying: this doesnโt seem like an isolated case. A broader wave is apparently hitting journalists (and some civil society actors) via Signal. How it works: Attackers message you on Signal pretending to be โSignal Support,โ warning about โsuspicious activity,โ and urging you to โre-verifyโ your account. Once you accept the chat, you receive a real Signal SMS verification code, because the attacker is actively trying to register your number on a new device. If you share that code, youโre handing them the keys. Signalโs extra protection is the Signal PIN. If an attacker also tricks you into giving up your PIN (or you donโt have strong protections enabled), they can see your contacts and networks, potentially join chats going forward, and lock you out by changing settings. Quick protections worth doing today: - Signal will never contact you via a two-way in-app support chat. Treat those messages as hostile. - Never share SMS codes, Signal PIN, or anything called โregistration lock.โ - Turn on Registration Lock (Settings โ Account โ Registration Lock). - If you see a โsafety number changedโ alert: verify the person via a different channel (call/video), not just Signal text. - Report + block suspicious requests, and review linked devices. If you work with sensitive sources: this isnโt just about losing an account, itโs about exposing networks. Please share this with colleagues who rely on Signal day-to-day.
WARNING, fellow journalists: As @nicoschmidt.io explains, attackers are trying to hijack reporters' Signal accounts by tricking people into handing over their 2FA codes. www.linkedin.com/posts/nicosc...
Since we published this, Pam Bondi's X account has started posting mugshots of Minnesotans arrested for impeding ICE/CBP. Sharing a defendant's photo publicly in this way is forbidden under DOJ rules
