🚨NEW: VoteVets slams decision to strip Harvey Milk’s name from Navy ship. “This isn’t just offensive—it’s a calculated act of disrespect.” It's not about tradition. It’s about forcing out those who don’t fit Hegseth’s 1980s action figure fantasy of service. FULL STATEMENT ⬇️

They have quotas. They can do the hard work of finding non citizen criminals, gang members. Or they can do the easy work: round up the law-abiding who show up to appointments, pay taxes, work. The result of the latter choice is it will leave US with migrant population more like what they lied it is

Sometimes fact and fiction collide. My crazy mash-up of elevated pulp, pop culture, and murder was inspired by my dysfunctional family and an unforgettable summer in the Hamptons. #booksky #writers #writingcommunity

Thank you, @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com The people who are dying as a result of Trump and Musk's cruelty should not be voiceless. All who speak up for them are doing humanity's basic work - seeing even humans who are not directly connected to them.

Castor: They told Heidy Sánchez, ‘Come in early—we want to check on your status.’ And she did the right thing… And at that ICE meeting, they took her. They took her away from her child. This is a breastfeeding mother. They flew her to another detention center in Miami, and then onto a plane to Cuba.

The Department of Justice no longer represents the best interests of the American people. Under Bondi, it has been transformed into little more than a cog in the authoritarian machine doing Donald Trump’s bidding. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Trump’s advisers have given up trying to restrict his phone use. His personal cellphone has become, “the most pivotal technological device in the federal government, directly linking Trump to the outside world.” And any number of foreign intel services are always listening in.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

This is heartbreaking. Listen to Ming Li "Carol" Hui, from ICE detention, break down in tears as she contemplates having to leave her family behind. She has no criminal record and had permission from ICE to stay despite a removal order for over a decade — yet Trump's revoking it.

We still can’t get straight answers on why ICE agents are masked and refusing to ID themselves. On top of all that they appear to be lying about cause. Congress, do you see what’s happening? Don’t be silent! Call your Senators & Reps. Demand an investigation. ☎️ Capitol Switchboard: (202) 224-3121
