Let’s stop pretending. The issue before the Supreme Court right now is easy to understand: There are still many people on the far right who don’t see Black Americans as equals...they see them through the same filthy slur they whisper when the cameras are off. That's right...that word.

Noem has ordered all US Airports to display a message blaming Dems for the shutdown & consequent flight delays.

I just sent the following message to my Congressman Ed Case, and I urge you to message your Reps, as well, along with anyone else you feel may be able to address this.

The woman they’re dragging from her car is a US citizen, and they’re abusing her in plain sight. No one should ever be treated like this.

⚠️ Warning: these back-to-back scenes are hard to watch unless you’ve got a depraved heart.

These are thugs, not officers with any real training. We keep seeing it again and again, and at this point, it’s clearly the op.

ICE targeted an apartment building near my home. Masked agents in unmarked cars. I've said this before. Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents.

This anonymous denial of due process is deadly.

These are Crimes Against Humanity. Moreover, this is also wanton sadism. And sadism never exists in isolation – it's always accompanied by sociopathy-psychopathy (ASPD). The Republican party is institutionalizing-normalizing Antisocial Personality Disorder.

ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility
By Marcela Rodrigues Globe Staff,Updated October 12, 2025, 44 minutes ago

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

Spread this around. Missouri and Ohio Democrats need at least 100,000 valid signatures to take on Republican gerrymandering maps. This is the fight 🔥

Guardrails of Democracy @demguardrails.bsky.social · 3d

MO & OH Dems need us to help Rally support!

A commissioned poll shows nearly 1/2 of MO voters oppose the maps

The Dem committee needs over 100,000 valid signatures across multiple congressional districts before the state’s 90-day window expires on Dec. 11 to let voters decide on the maps.

Missouri Democrats have an opportunity to block a new congressional map. They say they’re largely on their own.

Despite relatively little investment from Washington, Missouri and Ohio Democrats are looking to block new Republican-drawn maps through uncertain avenues.

Folks, the fight came to my neighborhood in Chicago this week. The community has been valiant. Their efforts have reduced the number of people taken, and yet, people have been taken. Help when and where you can.
