I know the story is going around. This is Morristown, New Jersey. Half an hour from Newark Airport. Its on the hinterlands of New York City. It's a fight I know ICE isn't ready for.

Also, this is People magazine. It's as normal supermarket America as it gets. Let's hope this lights something.

Fun fact! We could be using the $75 billion allocated for ICE on literally anything else! Like essential services that help people exist! It’s almost as if these issues + our priorities have a lot of overlap!

Also people definitely can’t afford things if they get shot in the face!

Trump administration: Record-high homelessness is caused not by housing costs but by mental illness and addiction.

Also Trump administration: We're decimating the programs that treat mental illness and addiction.
Last night with no warning, RFK Jr. cancelled up to $2 billion in funding for mental health and substance abuse research and programs administered through SAMHSA.

He and his minions did so because “they no longer believe the defunded programs align with the Trump administration's priorities”.

The FBI searched the home of a Washington Post reporter seeking classified state documents. Nothing she wrote about could be considered classified. They simply want to suppress dissent via intimidation. Don't let them. Here is what she wrote. Please share.

There is no need, as a reporter, to let him--or any person in power--say this without interruption. We have all seen the video. We all know what happened. We can all see what's happening. You have to challenge their every word.
Mike Johnson on Renee Good: "This woman was taunting ICE officers. She was impeding law enforcement. She was violating a number of laws. They were very patient ... what I saw was she hit the accelerator and hit the ICE officer and he reacted in a split second."
