Soooo down in Los Angeles, protestors who attended this afternoon’s anti-war protest took a jaunt to the MDC after and it seems portions of the fence outside the MDC were taken apart

Just got here in time to argue my way through an LAPD police cordon. Dispersal has been called

ProPublica Sues Education Department for Withholding Records About Discrimination in Schools Under Secretary Linda McMahon, the work of the Office for Civil Rights, which aims to protect students from discrimination, is cloaked in secrecy.

β€œActions by the Department of Education have real consequences for millions of students and families,” a lawyer representing ProPublica said. β€œThe public deserves to understand how executive authority is being exercised.”

The story behind the BBC refusing to air a documentary about Israeli attacks on Gaza hospitals Two veteran journalists produced a documentary that showed evidence of war crimes in Gaza. But the BBC refused to air the film. Why?

WOW. The money we’re spending for war with Iran could help every family who needs health care and food assistance.

While working people suffer, we’re spending BILLIONS on another forever war.

According to a federal court, Trump's IRS illegally shared confidential taxpayer information with ICE 42,695 times.

It kills me how news media still refers to it as a start up. It was founded over a decade ago! No other private venture would be allowed to just set it's capital on fire while waiting to eventually turn a profit.

An out of state billionaire is funding an anti-trans ballot question in Maine β€” so that we’ll spend our time fighting about trans people instead of raising his taxes.

"She [Susan Collins] is more interested in their profits [AIPAC donors and the defense industry] than the shame that we bring upon ourselves when we kill children."

Watch Maine Democratic U.S. Senate candidate @grahamformaine.bsky.social confront Republican Senator Susan Collins.

Haitian man living in Boston dies in ICE custody, family says - The Boston Globe Emmanuel Damas died Monday from an untreated tooth infection, his brother said.

Emmanuel Damas' death was entirely preventable.

He died from sepsis. That started as a tooth infection while under ICE detainment.

I’m urging DHS for a full investigation into his passing, and demanding proper medical care for all who remain behind the walls of these inhumane detention centers.

NIJC: Immigrant Rights and Immigration Legal Services NIJC keeps families together, frees people from the dangers of immigrant detention, and prevents asylum seekers from being deported based on unjust laws and illegal government actions.

This is exactly why organizations like the National Immigrant Justice Center are so important, especially when families are forced to navigate a system that refuses to give them answers.

Please support organizations like NIJC, families deserve answers:

It's the middle of the night in Chicago. Reporters and electeds are trying to figure out why a US citizen was detained by CBP, why her phone was inside an ICE detention center tonight, and where she is now.

Also unclear what happened to the other five people she was detained with at O'Hare airport.

I don't want this to come off the wrong way, but it feels like you're purposely dragging the good name of ICE through the mud. Please don't make federal agents unnecessarily killing American citizens political.

Taxing the rich is about investing in our communities. It means affording housing, healthcare, childcare, groceries and the baseline of a dignified life for New Yorkers. That’s why I introduced S9189 alongside @dianaforqueens.com, to make sure corporations are paying their fair share.

Today, NYC-DSA was joined by a big coalition to send 1️⃣ message to @governor.ny.gov : Tax. The. Rich.

Elected officials from the city to the state spoke in one voice to tell Albany that we need BOTH statewide taxes on the rich AND taxes on NYC's millionaires & big corporations.

Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid Footage obtained by The Handbasket’s lawsuit shows a hostile takeover on March 17, 2025.

SCOOP β€” Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.

Over the last year, the Trump administration has gone after free speech they disagree with, including revoking student visas for criticizing the Israeli government.

This is blatantly unconstitutional. The First Amendment applies to EVERYONE in the United States.

We don't need to give the military any more money. Especially for an illegal war in Israel.

We can spend that money on housing, health care, education, and infrastructure.

We don't have to settle.

This news is damning evidence of Donald Trump's irresponsible & chaotic policies.

He is shamefully harming our economy and as a result, working people are losing their jobsβ€”especially Black women.

Instead of spending $50 billion to bankroll Trump’s criminal war on Iran, we could:

-Extend ACA subsidies for one year
-Restore SNAP benefits for 2.4 million people
-And ensure Medicaid coverage for nearly 2 million people

It’s not about what we can afford. It’s about priorities.
