Letter from US Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Edward J. Markey (D-MA) and Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) to DHS:

  • "We are alarmed by the horrifying news that Emmanuel Damas, a Haitian asylum-seeker and member of our community, died in the custody of US ICE on 2 March 2026. ICE's failure to provide timely medical care to Mr. Damas appears to have contributed to his worsening medical condition and tragic death."

    Comments

  • "It seems like they woke up on Saturday morning and decided that they were going to start a war."

  • "Other than killing Iranians, American and Israeli officials have not yet articulated a clear end goal for the operation. Trumpf and junta apparatchiks also have struggled to offer solid reasons why the strikes had to happen now."

  • "6,500 Americans are stranded in the Middle East. The State Dept finally established a 24/7 crisis cell to help them."

  • Personnel and budget cuts at the State Dept is hindering operations.

  • **** WH Press Secretary: "Russia Giving Intelligence to the Iranians Does Not Really Matter" ****

    I'm certain the families of those Servicemembers KIA for Dummkopf Trumpf and Bibi's war will be happy to hear this.

    Top to bottom, the entire diabolical Trumpf junta is choc-a-bloc with anti-American traitors.

    No last words, no blindfold, no final cigarette for any of them:


    Mr. Damas complained of a bad toothache and ICE staff at the medical clinic in the Central Arizona Florence Correctional Center gave him pain killers, but didn't escort him to a dentist or send for one. He then died from the untreated raging dental infection.

    There is no "fixing" or "reforming" DHS or ICE other than scrapping them both completely and re-establishing the pre-9/11 INS so Immigration Judges (IJ) can administer legal and administrative due process for aliens, migrants, refugees.

    Note that progressives in the US want to see ICE abolished, while "corporate" or AIPAC Democrats want to see ICE reformed.

    The American police state hard at work. We are all Palestinians now.

    NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) needs advice from California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) like he needs a goiter.

    In late 2021, NYS Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani (D) went on a two-week hunger strike in front of City Hall in support of striking taxi drivers. In 2025 as candidate for NYC Mayor, Zohran pledged he would order the NYPD to arrest ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu if he ever stepped foot in NYC jurisdiction. Governor Newsom, the head of the world's fourth largest economy for several years, never said he would order the California State Police to arrest the nefarious PIFWC (Person Indicted for War Crime) if he ever stepped foot in to the Golden State.

    Only recently did Newsom detect the change in political winds about US support for Israel, so he cynically criticized Benjamin Netanyahu, finally called Israel "an apartheid state," and he condemned the illegal attack on Iran because "it would raise energy prices."

    Unlike Zohran Mamdani, Governor Newsom never attended any "Fight Oligarchy" rallies with US Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT), including one in Folsom, CA.

    New Yorkers and Bronx High School of Science graduate Zohran Mamdani know exactly who and what the rich telegenic cynical governor of California is: a "frenemy" of Kamala Harris, protege of fabulously wealthy House Democrat Nancy Pelosi, and a potential 2028 Democratic Party POTUS candidate.

    Sidenote: NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani has a net worth of $200,000 and he does not own a car; California Governor Gavin Newsom has a net worth of $30m.

    One blogger put it succinctly a few months ago about the wealthy Gavin Newsom before the political winds about US support for Israel shifted on him: "Gavin Newsom is a former AIPAC donor. He refuses to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza, attempted to crush pro-Palestine protests, and still supports unconditional aid to Israel. He will never be President."

    What Took Gavin Newsom So Long to Finally Criticize Israel?

    So, thanks for the advice Governor, but we in NYC think Zorhan Mamdani won't need it.
