Swalwell, Goldman to offer bill stripping ICE agents of qualified immunity. This is a move that’s sparking a lot of discussion, and for good reason. The proposal, known as the ICE OUT Act, aims to remove the legal protection known as “qualified immunity” from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers. Essentially, this means ICE agents could be held personally liable in civil lawsuits if they violate someone’s constitutional rights. The context for this is particularly relevant, especially considering recent events like the shooting of Renee Nicole Macklin Good, which has reignited the debate around ICE’s tactics and accountability.
The core of the issue, and what’s driving the calls for this bill, is a growing sense that qualified immunity shields law enforcement, including ICE, from facing the consequences of their actions.… Continue reading

The focus is on team loyalty and scoring “librul tearz.”
We must acknowledge that decades of constant propaganda and attacks on education have been effective for the fascists.… Continue reading

Following the shooting death of an unarmed U.S. citizen by an ICE agent, Vice President JD Vance announced that ICE would begin “door to door” operations across the country to escalate mass deportations.
