Colorado Democrats Push Measure Targeting ICE Use of Vehicle Tracking Systems

By Savana Kascak | Complete Colorado DENVER–A bill imposing new restrictions on police access to vehicle location surveillance data cleared a Colorado Senate committee on Monday, with one Democrat sponsor making no bones that the legislation is in significant part aimed at federal immigration enforcement. Senate Bill 26-070 bans law enforcement agencies from accessing databases containing historical vehicle locations without first obtaining a warrant. The bill also prohibits any sharing of data with third parties, including via Colorado Open Records Act (CORA) requests. Such databases include those used by companies like Flock Safety, Motorola, and Axon, which utilize cameras, license plate readers, and cellular networks in public intersections to assist police in...

Senate Fails to Advance DHS Funding Amid Partisan Divide Over Immigration Enforcement

By Kaia Hubbard | CBS News Washington — The Senate failed to advance a measure to fund the Department of Homeland Security on Tuesday, 11 days into a partial government shutdown with no apparent end in sight.  In a 50 to 45 vote, the measure fell short of the 60-vote threshold needed to move forward. The vote marked a second attempt to advance the measure and came after lawmakers returned to Washington following a weeklong recess without a deal to reform federal immigration agencies.  Congress' failure to reach an agreement on how to fund DHS prompted a funding lapse for the department, which also oversees the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Transportation Security Administration and the Coast Guard. The major sticking point has been o...

Colorado School Accused of Teaching Students to Track ICE Agents

By: Joseph Chalfant | Townhall A presentation was allegedly given at a Jefferson County, Colorado public school instructing students on how to document ICE agents conducting operations. The information included the often-used acronym “S.A.L.U.T.E.” to instruct their children on how to ensure full documentation of the activity of federal agents, essentially equipping them to work as “ICE watchers” like Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Children were told to gather information like number of officers, appearance, location, and the equipment of officers that students might observe. “Remember: document and record everything,” one slide of the presentation read. The presentation also “informed” students that “ICE leadership has given officers the go-ahead to violate the [...

CCP-Linked Activist Network Backs National Anti-ICE Strike

By Jerry Dunleavy | Just the News "No work, no school, no shopping." Anti-ICE efforts continue to ramp up in Minnesota, and a Chinese Communist Party-linked activist network is seeking to take the shutdown efforts nationwide. Acollection of far-left groups — led by a Communist activist network tied to CCP-linked millionaire Marxist Neville Roy Singham — is attempting to organize a nationwide anti-ICE school and business shutdown, with anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour declaring that “we will bring this country to a halt.” The general strike effort, scheduled for this Friday, is an attempt to replicate a Minnesota-wide anti-ICE shutdown which occurred last Friday and which was organized by many of the same far-left groups — but now with designs to do so on a national...

Court Deals Setback to Rep Jason Crow Over ICE Oversight Rules Challenge

By: Michael Kunzelman | Colorado Politics WASHINGTON • A federal judge refused Monday to temporarily block the Trump administration from enforcing a new policy requiring a week’s notice before members of Congress can visit immigration detention facilities. U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb, who is based in Washington, D.C., concluded that the Department of Homeland Security didn’t violate an earlier court order when it reimposed a seven-day notice requirement for congressional oversight visits to Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities. Cobb stressed that she isn’t ruling on whether the new policy passes legal muster. Rather, she said, plaintiffs’ attorneys representing several Democratic members of Congress used the wrong “procedural vehicle” to chall...

DHS Boosts Security at ICE Sites After Deadly Dallas Attack

By Misty Severi | Just The News “For months, we’ve been warning politicians and the media to tone down their rhetoric about ICE law enforcement before someone was killed," Tricia McLaughlin said. "This shooting must serve as a wake-up call to the far-left that their rhetoric about ICE has consequences." The Department of Homeland Security announced Wednesday that it was "immediately"increasing security at its Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities following the attack hours earlier at a facility in Dallas. The alleged shooter, identified as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, killed one detainee and injured two others before killing himself. Joe Rothrock, special agent in charge of the FBI Dallas field office, said during a press conference that Jahn wrote anti-ICE messages on the...

DHS calls on sanctuary politicians to stop demonizing ICE as officer assaults soar 1,000%

By Washington Examiner Staff | Washington Examiner The Department of Homeland Security called on Democratic politicians, legacy media outlets, and left-wing organizations to stop “demonizing DHS law enforcement.”  The request came less than a week after the assassination of conservative activist and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, as well as repeated attacks on Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers throughout the country, including two incidents over the last week. “This hateful rhetoric is inspiring political violence in our country and assaults against our brave DHS law enforcement,” read a release issued on Wednesday from the Department of Homeland Security. DHS Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin as...
