Nenko Gantchev should still be alive—home with his family. After 30 years contributing to Chicagoland as a small business owner and taxpayer, ICE detained him, ignored his medical needs, and he died in custody. This system is cruel, reckless, and must be held accountable.

So, Congress passes a law requiring the release of ALL the Trumpstein files. Any redactions to protect ONLY the victims
Trump DOJ releases a highly redacted and incomplete batch after working on them for months, citing various lame excuses for their non-compliance

Totally agree! The center is a memorial to a beloved president who was a martyr for this country and a war hero, who was also a supporter of the arts and culture. To see Trump's name on the building in front of Kennedy's is infuriating. Only despots and dictators do this.

Today is the deadline to release the Epstein files. The DOJ is refusing to comply.
This is about justice for survivors and holding participants and co-conspirators accountable.
The Epstein Files Act is the law, not a suggestion.
Release the files. Immediately.

This woman was an observer when ice was arresting her Somali neighbors who are legal citizens. She was arrested and her legs kept in shackles for 5 hours and they CUT OFF her wedding ring when they were processing her. It is so appalling. In Minneapolis my hometown.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Remember when Obama took office? It was like opening a window in a stale room—sudden, cleansing, hopeful. My fear now isn’t the absence of great leaders after Trump. It’s that the air he’s poisoned is so thick, so foul, that it may take decades before the country can breathe clean again.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.
