“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.
I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.
Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

Andrew Cuomo keeps saying he’s the only candidate who can take on Trump once he’s in office.

Yet in his statement about the indictment of Letitia James, the highest-ranking Black elected official in the state, he doesn’t even mention Trump by name….and, more importantly, he doesn’t mention James.
Andrew Cuomo * @andrewcuomo X.com In a democracy, the rule of law must be sacred - impartial, objective, and above politics. When the law is weaponized or manipulated to advance political agendas, it erodes public trust and weakens the very foundation of justice. Whether it comes from the right or the left, from prosecutors or politicians, the politicization of law enforcement is dangerous and corrosive. We must restore faith in fairness, facts, and due process - because once justice becomes partisan, everyone loses. 3:56 PM • 10/9/25 • 41K Views

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

This is the world’s problem, actually. And there is nothing absent minded about what I said. Which wasn’t an argument. It was a statement. This staggering failure of imagination, this idea that Democrats in power are powerless…. is absurd. If they have no power, why don’t they resign?

You're an incredibly smart person to be peddling an incredibly absent minded argument. Even if every Democratic official held a Pritzker-like conference every minute of every day, it still wouldn't give them the Constitutional power to do anything about it. This is a GOP problem.

This is an old formula used by authoritarian regimes. Stoke chaos and blame scapegoats to justify the use of force.

Folks need to be burning newspapers in the streets.

The reporting is a dereliction of duty.

Past tense. Words like “debate” and “differ” when referring to violations of Constitutional rights.

Newspapers burn without accelerants.

I thought I'd put the administration's proposed "compact" with universities in context, so I wrote the blog post below.

It's especially for journalists covering this story!

Many details about how the compact itself works and why the administration has retreated to this strategy.
