"No one knows how many veterans who protected us while serving in the United States military have been deported, often to countries they haven't seen since they were babies."

On paper, they are eligible for benefits from the VA, but there are many obstacles.

Bayard Rustin built the blueprint for Jobs and Freedom. He didn’t just march. He organized power.

“We need, in every community, a group of angelic troublemakers.”

Activist. Strategist. Organizer. Architect of the March on Washington in 1963.

Hanne Engan was deprived of insulin in ICE detention.

She has Type 1 diabetes & needs insulin to survive.

They deprived her of urgent medical attention & she almost died.

This isn't a one off. This administration is torturing immigrants to get them to sign away their rights.🧵

Reminder: “The SAVE America Act” is not saving us from anything real — and was born out of the lies of a malignant narcissist who incited an insurrection. 🇺🇸

🚨Military members - Under SAVE 2.0, your military ID wouldn't be enough to register to vote.

Service members born overseas could be blocked. They're attacking those who defend our democracy.

Just ordered a book from my local Waterstones. Click and collect so I’ll get it on way home tonight. As cheap as Amazon. Also bought an instant camera earlier this week from Argos, cheaper than on Amazon. It’s proving very easy not to use the evil billionaire’s website. More of you should try it.

When the Supreme Court allowed immigration agents to consider race during sweeps, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that citizens shouldn’t be concerned because agents will “promptly let the individual go.”

In a stunning shift today, NATO stripped the US of all of its operational-level Joint Force Commands.

For the first time since NATO’s founding, all of these commands will be led by Europeans.

NATO no longer feels the United States can be trusted.

I thought it was the perfect time to share some illustrations of the legendary Ida B. Wells! Ida Bell Wells-Barnett was a prolific African-American investigative journalist, civil rights activist, and women’s suffragist who led an anti-lynching crusade in the United States in the 1890s. #bhm

Here is Pam Bondi photographed with Keith Frankel.
He’s mentioned in Epstein files 460 times.

He is the CEO of Vitaquest, a nutritional supplements firm.
There have been reports of business contacts with Bondi since about 2009.

Any questions? Any investigations here? No leads?
Nope, nada….
