Lawmakers Call on #Meta to Stop Running ICE Ad Featuring #NeoNazi Anthem

Asked about an #ICE ad featuring the song “We’ll Have Our Home Again,” #DHS said: “Not everything you dislike is ‘Nazi propaganda.’”

Austin Campbell, February 5 2026

"Members of Congress are demanding answers from Meta after it ran advertisements by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement that they say included imagery and music intended to appeal to #WhiteNationalists and #NeoNazis.

"In a letter sent to Meta CEO #MarkZuckerberg, Reps. #BeccaBalint, D-Vt., and #PramilaJayapal, D-Wash., questioned how the social media company approved an ad campaign from the Department of Homeland Security featuring the song 'We’ll Have Our Home Again,' which is popular in neo-Nazi spaces. The lawmakers urged Meta to cease running the ad campaign on its social media platforms and asked whether the company would commit to ending its digital advertising partnership with #DHS.

The Intercept was first to report ICE’s use of the song in a paid post recruiting for the agency, which published shortly after an ICE agent fatally shot #ReneeGood in Minneapolis."

Documents Reveal Real Reason for Raid on Chicago Apartment Building

The DHS arrest records make no mention of the Tren de Aragua gang even though officials repeatedly cited its presence in the building as motivation for the raid, in which agents descended from a Blackhawk helicopter and zip-tied U.S. citizens.

8. i cablo di #WikiLeaks rivelano che #ICE e #DHS sono parte chiave della macchina della sicurezza e operano nei centri operativi del paese ospitante, NON nelle ambasciate e consolati USA del paese ospitante. Il Public Affairs Office di #ICE NON ci ha smentito questo

@ncoca The greater offense here is the DHS official who sent #DHS agents to harass someone who exercised his protected right to speak.

Don't expect #Google or any corporation in any country to risk the state taking legal action against them to defend the rights of their customers. They won't.

Watching these out of shape nazi clowns haul their carcasses around the the neighbour really gives strength to the "Stomtroopers are shit at everything" trope you see in Star Wars.

Losers, all of them, fucking losers.....like the teenage Greg Bovino masturbating in a public stairwell....

OH FUCK WE'RE COOKED

THEY GOT OUR LEADER

'Feds Identify “Leader of #Antifa”

Twenty-nine year old Chandler Patey has been regularly protesting outside his local #ICE facility in South Portland for months, offering up his apartment to fellow #protesters to use the bathroom or wash off pepper spray, according to local news.

To the #DHS, “he is the leader of Antifa in #Portland, #Oregon.”'

"Johnson🚨has just affirmatively said Congress can't add new warrant requirements for federal IMM agents.

So he's said that🚨he'll not mandate officers take masks off & is opposed to warrants for fed officers.

Those🚨are 2 of the 3 Dem demands.

The #DHS CR, if passed today, expires in 10 days.🚨Sounds like a deal is miles away."
-J Sherman

#Democrats must explain to the public what's at stake & the mandates they're demanding +how they'll rein in #ICE/DHS.
