The Trump regime deported a 2-month-old baby and his family after the infant was hospitalized following their detention at the Dilley family detention center.

Rep. Joaquin Castro says the family was shipped off with only the money in their commissary — $190.

The cruelty is endless.

We're getting the first indications that my/our fears were correct: ICE—according to an elected Georgia rep—"conducted a high-speed chase during rush hour" for a suspect who didn't qualify for such treatment under ICE SOPs.

The result: the death of a beloved teacher. www.11alive.com/article/news...
Political outcry follows Georgia teacher's death in crash caused by man fleeing ICE

It's hard to believe that you could be the trade representative for a major power and not know that tariffs are regressive.

My econ 101 students know what the word regressive means, and that tariffs are regressive. Many could even cite studies on the subject.
Trade Representative Jamieson Greer on tariffs: "It's not regressive. Most consumption in America is done by the wealthiest people. So the idea it's somehow regressive is just wrong."

A federal judge has ordered the restoration of the slavery exhibit at Philadelphia’s Presidents House after it was removed by the National Park Service. We cannot erase the truth about slavery where freedom was proclaimed. History must be told in FULL. Our ancestors demand nothing less. ✊🏿

Ben Smith: I don’t know if Stephen Miller resigns before the midterms, resigns after the midterms, or sticks around. But this feels like that moment when a president puts a lot of confidence in one adviser to steer national policy in a direction that turns out to be politically disastrous.

Leavitt: "I think it's frankly ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit. He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service."

ICE agents crashed directly into a 19-year-old refugee's car, pulled him out from the wreck, threw him on the ground, then rushed him off to detention before he could locate the immigration papers in his car that proved he's here lawfully. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

Tests found barium, which can cause heart and blood pressure problems, at 3x the EPA’s limit in the Boarmans’ drinking water.
