Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

The CONSTITUTION is the only thing standing in the way of any one of us being put on the next plane. Our elected leaders (most) are not upholding their oath.

Freedom of speech - gone, due process - gone.

OHIOANS; see this open.substack.com/chat/posts/8...

This administration fought like hell to bring sex trafficker and abuser Andrew Tate home. But they can't seem to find Abrego Garcia. When will the public reach its breaking point? Now? When El Salvador says Garcia died in their torture camp?

It was another week of Republican chaos across the country — and I’m here to give you my weekly 3 bad things and 3 good things you need to know so you can keep up the resistance!

@booker.senate.gov: "Are we a nation that is going to tolerate this, or a nation that's going to stand up? As the great Frederick Douglass said, 'the limits of tyrants are prescribed by the people that they seek to oppress.' How much will we endure before we say enough is enough?"

This seems right, and all of this is WRONG.

The U.S. National Park Service restored its original webpage on the history of the Underground Railroad after it was met with backlash for deleting a prominently featured photo of abolitionist and women’s suffragist Harriet Tubman, as well as segments of text describing the horrors of slavery.

As a local cop, I’d like to say that dismantling of social services by the federal government, which helps fund vital services & programs for my neighbors, is insane. It’s anti-fiscal It’s anti-smart It’s anti-community And It’s pro-misery It’s pro-cruelty Hell, it’s pro-crime

Which means the broligarchs are going to buy low when people have to sell their stocks to pay their bills. Cruelty to benefit billionaires, China, and Russia.

Encourage any small farmers you know to contact Peter Byck, have a town hall gathering for the whole community to watch “Roots So Deep…” meet with farmers following those practices,. Get the community together, and you won’t need Big Chem.

👇👇👇elected officials have a responsibility to the communities they SERVE. They work for us.

Again.

Vulnerable people are hurting because of rich people’s greed.

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.  Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.  Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

Count me in.

If you live in Wisconsin or in the 6th congressional district of Florida you’ll have a chance to do something the rest of us only dream about doing... [It's also an election day in many other parts of the country, too.] https://robertreich.substack.com/p/if-you-live-in-wisconsin-or-floridas
