Wow. What a sign that criminal case against Abrego Garcia may be politically cooked up. "Schrader’s resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons" Schrader spent 15 years in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville and was chief of the criminal division

I think it should be Gen X and older. They will kill the younger ones easier. Also younger generations have been marching for safer schools, for BLM, for Gaza, for climate action. Everyone does their part. Older people need go be out there more to give them cover.

#They don’t understand how serious we take this song now. That’s why we don’t play when they post tiktoks saying, “An HBCU could never.” Don’t play like that. This song is definitely a spirit lifter. That’s why it’s at every Black function from a game to a wedding. FAFO #BlackMusicMonthChallenge

“ @repaprildelaney.bsky.social, the Maryland Democrat, put it a bit more bluntly. "’Pro bono was never for the United States government or for a billionaire president,’ she said. ‘That's a little obscene, right? Pro bono is for those who are under attack, not the attack dog.’” /1

Why doesn't ICE have uniforms? Why don't they have to wear body cameras? Why don't they have to show a badge or provide their names? Why are they allowed to hide their identities?
