THIS IS FUCKED UP: Sae Joon Park took bullets for America in Iraq. The thanks he got? A one-way ticket out of the country he nearly died for. He’s being deported to South Korea—after surviving spinal injuries, PTSD, and addiction. He fought for America. Now America throws him out like trash.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

From 2019

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

There's nothing holy about writing discrimination into the law.

We can keep discussing these societal issues year after year, but nothing is likely to change. Instead, it’s up to you to take proactive steps to protect yourself and your family and live with the reassurance that you can protect your life if the threat arises—plain and simple.

We need a massive “get out the vote” campaign starting now…

“A construction worker in south Alabama says he was forcibly detained Wednesday by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who claimed his proof of U.S. citizenship was fake.” www.al.com/news/mobile/...

The one person a woman is married to is more likely to kill her than all the illegal immigrants in the country combined and yet none of our laws or policies seem to recognize that fact

So that's what Big Balls did with the terabytes of data he stole from the National Labor Relations Board a few weeks ago.

Reposting to remind folks that I'm still looking for work. A lot is going on in the news right now, including potential tariffs on international films, the Sean Combs sex trafficking trial, and a plan to defund NPR and PBS. Please reach out if you need a reliable journalist.

In only a few months, we've rolled back the clock on measles eradication by more than three decades. The last time we hit this benchmark in 1990, 9 children died. It took ten more years and intensive vaccination efforts after that to declare it eliminated. That was 25 years ago.

Let’s normalize putting the name of the corporation that owns the private prison in the headline whenever something like this happens

truckers will not get to go to work if they don't have cargo to haul and nobody can magically manufacture new cargo for those routes. this will be profound grief and austerity

I don't really care what the "political consequences" are of fighting for the proposition that *everyone* is entitled to due process before they are removed from the United States and sent to a Salvadoran prison. It's not really a principle if you only adhere to it when it's politically expedient.

The projection is off the charts here

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

This is the Joyce and Harvey White International Plaza — it was constructed in 1998 as a tribute to NWMSU’s global enrollment. “A symbol of goodwill and peace, it recognizes the various countries of currently enrolled Northwest students.” Trump just revoked the visas of 43 students.

Call to Action: Nationwide protests for April 19th. Events information will be announced between now and then. #3E #FiftyFiftyOne #Handsoff

It is a sad day for the legal industry. Paul Weiss, didn't just bend a knee, it set a new standard for shameful capitulation. This is a stain on the firm, every one of its partners, and the entire legal profession.

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted… And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right. George Orwell, 1984
