Grateful that Brad Lander is using his experience to highlight the biggest outrage; that ICE is re-arresting people who have been 100% compliant with ICE and the courts, with the goal of unlawfully stripping them of a court hearing to juice Stephen Miller's deportation numbers.

Vinay Prasad was named as both the FDA’s chief scientific officer and chief medical officer TODAY. He immediately fired Nicole Verdun, who was in charge of cell and gene therapies. “Now, there will definitely be concerns and questions about what this means for the division under Vinay Prasad”.

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

A Muslim candidate for mayor of the nation's largest city, defending the rights of a Jewish candidate for mayor, who was arrested for defending the rights of immigrants not to face detention without warrants. This is the kind of solidarity Trump and his goons fear.

Pretty startling: Levar Stoney appears to have lost the primary for lieutenant governor by a narrow 4000 votes statewide, roughly. He’s the former mayor of Richmond: he lost Richmond 58% to 21%, so down 10,500 votes there. !!

The resistance against ICE is having an effect. Dozens of armed agents deployed along with a helicopter, resulting in ... two kidnappings.

Reporter: Five fellow mayoral candidates came here within 90 minutes of you being arrested and called for your release. What does that say about the tenor of the mayor's race? Lander: Was one of them Andrew Cuomo? Reporter: It was not. Lander: Imagine that!

This is one of the main reasons they wanted Trump to win in 2024. The bosses were desperate to get workers back into a situation where they are desperate and easy to exploit, and away from the tight Biden labor market, where low wage workers were getting double digit % raises. Promises kept!
