“They put handcuffs on us, a chain over our waist and our feet, like criminals. They transported us in the kind of van that you put dogs in. We were all sitting in a row facing a white wall.… We boarded the plane and it was full…. A lady in her 70s kept throwing up.“
I spoke with Any Lucía López Belloza, the Babson College student who was on her way to surprise her family for Thanksgiving when ICE deported her.
"My 5-year-old sister still believes that I might go home for Christmas," she tells me.

Here's a better headline for Axios: "How Trump has normalized racism and racist slurs." Why can't some journalists just call a thing what it is? https://loom.ly/hiKWr58

If you've ever been to a naturalization ceremony, you know they're filled with people whose palpable love of this country is twenty times stronger than the pinched "patriotism" of any native-born MAGA chud.
Just unspeakable assholery.

i’m at the brooklyn training. amazing energy.
@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.
This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

I was just thinking of this quote by Kurt Vonnegut the other night - “You meet saints everywhere. They can be anywhere. They are people behaving decently in an indecent society.”
There are so many people living lives of quiet dignity despite horrific medical news or poverty or tragedy where every day they still wake up and try to be good people in the world even as the world pushes against them and it makes me even angrier at the absolute shitheads that rule over things

The attacks on trans rights, which are basic human rights, are a terrible injustice and an attack on truth and fact as well. Everyone should be deeply alarmed and it should be disqualifying for a politician to support such discrimination.

Also worth noting that racism is not usually “hatred of another because they’re different,” it’s “hatred of another to justify oppressing the other” — for example, European and Africans originally traded peacefully, anti-Black racism was actively invented to justify chattel slavery.
