👀 The Trump administration has been arguing that one of the people it deported to Mexico — despite fears of persecution — said verbally he was not afraid to go there. Now, in a late Friday filing, they say that was a mistake. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This is the most important story of the day. A Tulsi aide ordered a senior analyst to redo an assessment of the relationship between Venezuela’s government and a gang after intelligence findings undercut the WH justification for deporting migrants. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/u...

HUGE. A direct rebuke to the Trump administration's practice of shoving people onto planes: "Under these circumstances, notice roughly 24 hours before removal, devoid of information about how to exercise due process rights to contest that removal, surely does not pass muster."

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20?

ICE pretended to arrest a 21 yo in order to force her to call her undocumented mother to come leave the house (where she was safe from ICE arrest) to care for her baby. When the mother came, she was abducted and the daughter was suddenly of no interest to ICE. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

In mid-November 2024, I attended a protest at Santa Clara High School in #SantaClaraCA after a freshman, José Zamora, was incessantly bullied for being houseless and without a mother until he ended his life. The school's "tribute" to him is now making the rounds on South Bay Facebook groups.

The Gaza GFM's are being deleted and marked as spam again. Sadly, there is a generally held, and false, assumption that these funds are mostly scams. I wanted to address that. The Palestinians need these donations to survive amidst the aid blockade. There's no aid getting in from the charities. 1/4
