I am of no help there, but that number seems a bit high. Crazy if that’s the average

In a new article for 𝘙𝘢𝘤𝘦 & 𝘊𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴, Marcel Paret & I turn to apartheid South Africa to think strategically about how to confront racial authoritarianism in the US today. This isn’t analogy for its own sake, but what Stuart Hall calls “delicately disinterring” lessons and transplanting them with care.

Whenever you see a story about how liberals aren't making their conservative peers feel welcome enough, this is who they're talking about.

WATCH: Philadelphia lawmakers introduce 'ICE Out' legislation to restrict federal operations in city YouTube video by PBS NewsHour

The City of Philadelphia has introduced legislation to limited ICE in the city. The Federal Agents can not be masked, must have ID visible, must have arrested warrants signed by federal judges. They can't attack people. If they can't do this, they will be arrested.

If they are doing this to white people in broad daylight imagine what they are doing to non-white people in detention facilities.

Man, I bet the NRA is going to be furious when they hear that jack-booted thugs from the federal government executed a law-abiding citizen for exercising his Second Amendment right to carry a handgun.

Any second now, I'm sure.

He was a white guy, if that helps?

Hello? NRA?

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

Wow — Newly-released State Department documents show that the Trump-Vance-Rubio administration literally only abducted Tufts student Rümeysa Öztürk because she co-wrote an op-ed urging Tufts to follow student resolutions to acknowledge genocide in Gaza & divest from companies tied to Israel.

Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS.

ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion.

This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

Are you interested in inequality of opportunity / inter-generational mobility? Take a look at this impressive new resource: a public-access database containing cross-nationally comparable estimates of inequality of opportunity for 72 countries, covering 2/3 of the world’s population. 👇👇👇

A U.S. citizen legally observed ICE activity from a distance. He didn’t interfere, block agents, or make contact. An ICE agent still threatened lethal force and referenced a recent killing. That’s retaliation for protected speech—and it’s illegal. Caught on video. #sheshed

If you are a veteran, this kind of visible presence at anti-ICE protests is really valuable.

These clowns all want to play dress-up soldier, so actual soldiers mocking them to their faces is devastating.

Angus: "We see this attack as setting the stage for an attack where Trump could go anywhere. The same language he’s used against Venezuela, he’s used against Canada—& he sees that we have immense resources. Difference is, good luck thinking that you are going to break the Canadian people."

Clear evidence that at universities conservatives don't face higher obstacles than liberals to establish student groups + invite outside speakers.

"These results fail to offer support for the view that conservative students encounter more difficulty in efforts to access campus resources."

One of the biggest moments of my career:
USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!
