Letter from US Senators Elizabeth Warrem (D-MA) and Edward 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."
The Late Emmanuel Damas (56), a case of "NHI" (No Humans Involved)
On Thursday 5 March, Donald Trump hosted a group of pastors and faith leaders from across the country at the White House who then drew a prayer circle around him in the Oval Office and invoked deity to help and protect him.
America Has No Shortage of These Monsters
The House of Representatives failed to pass the War Powers bill because four Democrats voted AGAINST the resolution that would have forced Donald Trump to seek congressional approval to continue waging the US and Israel's war against the people of Iran.
Iran is not America's Fight
Episcopalian pastor Lisa Levy (48) of Hamden CT was arrested for allegedly abusing multiple rescue animals she adopted, leaving them with severe chemical burns, broken bones, skin lesions, and neurological issues, some of them dying from her cruelty.
America is Thoroughly Infected
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.
One sky pilot nauseatingly bleated: "I pray for your grace and your protection over him. I pray for your grace and your protection over our troops and all of our men and women serving in our armed forces. And father we just pray you continue to give our President the strength that he needs to lead our nation as we come back to one nation under God."

Some faux Christian mega-pastors have called for Iranians to come to the US to rid the country of Democrats; another called for the annihilation of the Iranian people.

**** House Speaker Mike Johnson: "The US is not at war with Iran" ****
Russia is not at war with Ukraine, but is executing a "Special Military Operation" according to Russia President Vladimir Putin.
Israel did not conduct ethnic cleansing in Gaza, but "rescued hostages" according to Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu.
At a cost of one billion dollars a day to the hardworking American taxpayer, as well as the lives of our Servicemen who died for Israel,
Mike Johnson sniveled the killing of Iranians is a "limited operation."
"We are not at war, we have no intention of being at war," Johnson bleated to reporters after the failed vote to curb Israel's power over the US Congress, calling the war a "limited operation."
Johnson whined it would have been "a very dangerous gambit" to take away the Dummkopf Trumpf's ability to execute what he has called Operation Epstein Fury.

Indeed.
Almost 100 years ago, legendary USMC General Smedley Butler wrote "War is a Racket."
He may as well have written "Christianity is a Racket."
That distinction went to Sinclair Lewis in 1927 and further immortalized in film (1960): www.youtube.com
Off to play bridge soon.








This poor guy was in ICE custody for three years (detained by ICE before Dummkopf Trumpf seized power on 20 Jan 2025).
