Last month, the ex-wife of Rev. William Barber alleged that the prominent minister had been paying her alimony from the finances of his anti-poverty nonprofit. Now an independent investigation has found the allegations against Reverend Dr. Barber were baseless. julieroys.com/investigatio...

The Supreme Court issued a stay, effectively ruling, for now, that the Constitution no longer applies, at least not to immigrants. Fast-track deportations with no opportunity for judicial review violate the fundamental principle of due process, especially for people already on U.S. soil.

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

There’s a growing problem you’re not supposed to question: masked agents detaining migrants. Not in war zones...here...on U.S. soil. When power hides its face...it stops being accountable. When you can’t ID authority...you can’t challenge it. 1/5 🧵

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment. Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off. 📌 It’s on us citizens to stand up for our vulnerable brothers and sisters.

They’re assaulting the mothers and fathers of US soldiers. Roving gangs of masked men grab human beings off the street. They send them without due process to prisons in countries they’re not even from where they are then sold into slavery. Make it stop!!!

When the US government brutalizes people, we're all complicit if we don't speak out & fight back. And that's exactly what's happening across this country. #ICE #secretpolice & cosplaying Nazis are terrorizing folks in our name. Call Congress 202-224-3121 This was in Santa Ana, CA this morning.

Not “ICE” changing license plates in a back lot. They wouldn’t do that, would they? Maybe the authorities should look into this.

Sweet! We need to stock up on ketchup. A little bird told me there's a lot of ketchup flinging at 100 Penzey! There will a shortage and the whitehouse chef is buying the condiment up by the case. Buy or cry!

“What a wordsmith. See, see, most people would’ve gone with ‘brightest bulb,’ or ‘sharpest tool,’ but Donald Trump took half of both and smushed them together. That is what makes him the cream of the litter.” — DESI LYDIC
