ACCOUNTABILITY FOR FEDERAL AGENTS, PROTECT THE RIGHT TO RECORD 11JUN26

SECRETARY of Homeland Security fascist fotze trunt markiewayne mullin continues to prove he is no different than neo-nazi fascist fotze trunt kkkristi noem, the drippings he replaced. He is a threat to our democratic Republic but he can not be allowed to intimidate us into not using and not defending our First Amendment rights, our civil liberties, our human rights, our American Constitution and our country! Please sign the ACLU's letter to congress and then consider e mailing your own message to your representative and senators. My e mails are at the end of this post.

UPDATED 29MAI26: VIDEOS AND PICTURES OF ILLEGAL & IMMORAL ACTIONS BY HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY FASCIST FOTZE TRUNT KKKRISTI NOEM'S ICE, HSI & CBP GESTAPO IN 2026

The public has a constitutional right to know what our own government is up to. Yet right now, community members simply – and legally – recording immigration and law enforcement agents in public are being harassed and retaliated against.

Imagine exercising your legal right to film reckless federal agents in your community – then imagine those agents following you home and taunting you, or tackling you to the ground and arresting you. That's what's happening right now in Memphis, Newark, and other cities across the country.

It's chilling. But a new bill, the Right to Record Act, would protect our First Amendment rights from ICE and other federal law enforcement officers – giving people the ability to sue agents who violate our right to record their actions.

Tell Congress to pass the Right to Record Act and protect our ability to hold our government accountable.

Take Action

We've seen the consequences of federal agents thinking they're above the law. Out-of-control agents have pepper-sprayed children, dragged families from their homes in zip ties, and shot and killed people. But without video recordings, the public may never know the truth – and wouldn't be able to demand justice.

Recording creates an independent record of what our government is up to. Agents going after people who record are clearly trying to intimidate community members out of exercising their First Amendment rights – which is why Congress needs to step in.

The Right to Record Act gives people a legal option if agents violate our First Amendment rights. It would make sure federal agents can't dodge transparency and public scrutiny. It makes sure that the government can't hide from the public – and it creates legal consequences for federal agents who try to.

Congress must enact this critical legislation to help enforce our First Amendment rights. Urge your lawmakers to support the Right to Record Act now.

With thanks for all you do,

THE E MAILS I SENT TO REP SUBRAMANYAM D-VA 10TH, SEN WARNER D-VA AND SEN KAINE D-VA

The constitutional right to observe, record, and protest law enforcement is fundamental to our democracy. We can’t hold our government accountable if we can’t see for ourselves what they’re doing in our communities, and we won’t see change if we can’t tell the government we disapprove. Yet as ICE and other federal agents flood our streets, raid our communities, and terrorize our neighbors, recorders, observers, and protesters have faced harassment and retaliation for simply exercising their First Amendment rights. I’m urging you to co-sponsor and pass the Right to Record Act to protect our legal right to observe, film, and protest federal law enforcement.

Observing and filming allows people to create an independent record and share information with their communities. Protesting allows us to demand better from our government. But in states like Tennessee and New Jersey, agents have harassed and targeted journalists, advocates, and community members alike in an attempt to intimidate them out of exercising their constitutional right to observe, record, and protest.

SECRETARY of Homeland Security neo-nazi fascist markiewayne mullin continues to prove he is no different than neo-nazi fascist kkkristi noem, the drippings he replaced. He is a threat to our democratic Republic but he can not be allowed to intimidate us into not using and not defending our First Amendment rights, our civil liberties, our human rights, our American Constitution and our country! I expect you to sponsor, support and vote for the Right To Record Act and to work with the entire Virginia congressional delegation to make sure all do the same.

The attacks on our First Amendment rights are unacceptable. I’m calling on you as my elected official in Congress to pass the Right to Record Act and protect our right to record and expose the truth without fear.

Comments:	I am opposed to the proposed monstrosity called the triumphal arch. Unlike D.C.'s loved and cherished memorials and monuments the arch's location, size and design will be a blight on the National Mall and Arlington National Cemetery. The proponents of the arch are not honoring America with it's proposed location and design, instead they are intent on raising a monument to glorify themselves. That is obscene and is reminiscent of hitler's grandiose plans for Welthauptstadt Germania. America, with all our faults, is better than the real reason and message of this arch, and I, along with the majority of Americans, hope and pray you deny approval of it being built. Thank you, Craig Schwanke

The FIFA Men’s World Cup kicked off today, and we're covering its politics in depth: how the Trump administration tried to block players, support staff, and even a referee from entering the US; how unionized workers staffing Los Angeles’ World Cup stadium won raises and the right to walk out if ICE threatens their safety; and how Trump is leveraging the event, like Vladimir Putin before him, to whitewash an ugly record on the world stage.

In an interview out today, Jules Boykoff, an academic and former soccer pro, talks about FIFA's legacy of sportswashing—which dates back to 1934, when Benito Mussolini used Italy's team at the second-ever World Cup to sell the world on the concept of the new fascist man. The players, Mussolini said, were “soldiers of sport.” They were also soldiers of propaganda.

But Boykoff also speaks to the sport’s power for good: the way it forges interpersonal bonds and builds community: Soccer activists in Oregon, where Boykoff lives, got their women's pro team, the Portland Thorns, to replace leadership that reportedly defended a coach who abused players.

And my colleague Tim Murphy found a different joy in the World Cup: exploring cultures around the world through food over a three-month journey of attempts to cook a dish from each of the 48 countries competing.

“Spend enough time poking around for recipes,” Tim writes, “and you start to learn a thing or two about tradition, migration, and common bonds.”

Despite the political grandstanding and corporate greed, soccer is for the people. Read our coverage to learn more.
