It's Tax Day, and many Americans are refusing to pay their taxes under Trump's administration.
“I can take a sternly worded [IRS] letter. That does not scare me,” one tax protester told me. “What scares me is my neighbors being taken out of their homes.” www.huffpost.com/entry/federa...
I spoke to an ICE observer who was detained last week after following DHS agents to record them. She was not arrested.
Five days later, her Global Entry was revoked.
A day after I asked DHS about her case, her Global Entry was restored.

Trump "Truth": The alleged Statement put out by CNN World News is a FRAUD, as CNN well knows. The false Statement was linked to a Fake News site (from Nigeria) and, of course, immediately picked up by CNN, and blared out as a “legitimate” headline. The Official Statement by Iran was just released, and posted on TRUTH, below. Authorities are looking to determine whether or not a crime was committed on the issuance of the Fake CNN World Statement, or was it a sick rogue player? CNN is being ordered to immediately withdraw this Statement with full apologies for their, as usual, terrible “reporting.” Results of the investigation will be announced in the near future. President DONALD J. TRUMP
White House Rapid Response account: "ATTENTION @cnni : As @POTUS just said, Iran’s official statement is linked in his TRUTH below AND posted by the Iranian foreign minister. This alleged statement by “Iran” is a FRAUD! Correct immediately!" [Photo of CNN story citing "a statement from Iran's Supreme National Security Council report by Iranian state media."
Brendan Carr tweet: More outrageous conduct from CNN. Fake news is bad enough for the country, but pushing out a hoax headline in such a sensitive national security moment as this requires accountability. Iran put out an official statement that simply cannot be squared with the one CNN's false headline attributes to them. Time for change at CNN.
Iran's PressTV Twitter account: Supreme national security council: Iran achieved historic victory by forcing criminal US to accept its 10-point plan.
The President, White House, and FCC's Brendan Carr are calling for action -- and implying a criminal investigation -- against CNN for... accurately reporting what Iran's state media shared as a statement from Iran's Supreme National Security Council.
“A whole civilization will die tonight” is the most vile thing a US president has ever said, certainly during the post-1945 era when they’ve had the power to kill civilizations with the dropping of a bomb. I’m staring into the darkness. May this not be one of the most fateful days in human history.
The death of a nearly blind refugee from Myanmar who was found on a Buffalo street in February — five days after Border Patrol agents left him at a doughnut shop — has been ruled a homicide, authorities said Wednesday. https://to.pbs.org/3NZGHsz
US-Israeli strike on orphanage west of Tehran kills two, Iranian media reports Sana Noor Haq By Adam Pourahmadi and Sana Noor Haq At least two people have been killed by a US-Israeli strike on an orphanage west of Tehran, Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency reported Monday. Five others were injured in the attack on a newly built orphan charity complex in the city of Fardis, about 25 miles west of Tehran, the agency quoted a regional official as saying. Rights groups have condemned the number of civilians and children killed in US and Israeli strikes and the targeting of educational establishments and residential areas. In Iran alone, strikes have killed at least 230 children and injured a further 1,800, the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency reported on Sunday.
CNN reports that the US/Israel bombed an Iranian ORPHANAGE, killing at least two people.

Trump’s ICE crackdown is forcing immigrant women to "choose between their freedom or their health."
Reproductive health care providers told me they're seeing major disruptions in care because of the constant fear & surveillance of immigration enforcement.
An ADSBx map showing Omni's N486AX taking off from Bulgaria and flying a wide arc over the Arabian peninsula and is now heading ENE.
As expected, this Omni ICE flight refueled in Bulgaria and is now flying around Trump's stupid war on the way to its first deportation stop, likely India. Migrant passengers have been shackled for at least 23 hours.
I'd love to hear from ICE agents who've been assigned to airport duty.

New: I spoke to eight people facing years in prison for a protest at a church where a top ICE official is a pastor.
They described arrests meant to intimidate: Battering rams, shackles, trophy photos.

WGA Statement on CBS News Layoffs Once again, our members have lost their jobs due to the recklessness and greed of their bosses. CBS News Radio is an institution, where generations of the finest journalists in the country spent their careers reporting the news and holding people in power to account. The decision to simply shutter CBS News Radio is indicative of Bari Weiss and David Ellison's inept leadership. The dozens of CBS journalists laid off today have served the American people through their talent and dedication. Given the damage David Ellison has done to CBS News in mere months, the Ellison family must not be permitted to acquire CNN or any other vital news outlets. We stand in solidarity with our colleagues and friends and will fight to protect journalists.

ProPublica journalists are a national treasure. ProPublica as a nonprofit entity is lucky to employ them. Management should come to a fair agreement, and FAST, so these folks can focus on their work.
I hope we don't have to strike, but I voted "yes" along with 92% of my colleagues because we deserve what countless other unionized newsrooms have won: a fair disciplinary process; wages that keep up with inflation and reasonable AI guardrails. Here's how you can support our union's efforts: 1/

This case is such a stark encapsulation of why immigrants rights' activists try to separate policing/jails from ICE: any arrest (no matter how low-level or how absurd the reason) can put you on ICE's radar and make you vulnerable to going into their custody.
