This story reveals ICE raid strategy. Agents appear claiming to have a warrant for a pedophile, but never show it. OWNER CONSENTS. They ask all Latinx employees for ID and fingerprint them, THEY CONSENTED. 12 were arrested WITHOUT CAUSE. Lesson: 1. DO NOT CONSENT 2. LEAVE 3. STFU 4. CALL A LAWYER

I heard the New Democratic Party Chairman on NPR tonight and it was depressing. The same incompetent messaging. AOC fires me up, this milk toast makes me sad for the future. We can’t do better than this? Is the plan just to hope that Republicans hurt enough people that they lose the next election?

Do not despair at the first waive of Trump’s E.O.s. When Dick the Butcher said “Let’s kill all the lawyers,” it was his recipe for tyranny. If you care about these issues and feel helpless, find a legal advocacy group you like and donate generously. Trump will get his ass handed to him in court.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)
