Phillip Lewis, a 72-year-old cancer patient, said he was woken up and marched outside his home in his robe and underwear before federal officers even checked his ID.

He was not, it turned out, the man they were looking for.

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

#nzpol Pay attention, Aotearoa New Zealand!!!!

Don't let this awful National Party/NZ First/ACT coalition government permanently change who we are as a nation. We are better than them, and it's time for us to stand up, speak up, and show up. We are empathetic and powerful. Take action NOW!
Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

Here's a recapitulation of the basic argument Candace makes in that video. This was written in the late 1960s by a violent neo-Nazi named Josef Mlot-Mroz...a working class immigrant whose Nazi activities were secretly financed by a wealthy, blue blooded, Harvard-trained lawyer.

For artificial intelligence to ever pencil out, some truly enormous revenue streams will be required. And if you need trillions of dollars for data centers forever, there’s only one entity to turn to: Uncle Sam.

If the pattern follows B-18 here in LA, DHS is clearing out Broadview to hide the human rights abuses.

The magistrate will visit an empty facility.

And three days later DHS will have it packed again.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Photo sent to me from a faith leader on the ground outside the Broadview ICE detention center this morning shows several buses now parked outside the facility.

This, the leader says, is an unusual occurrence.

Also: a magistrate is set to visit the facility next week.

LET ME BE PERFECTLY CLEAR: DOJ DID ALL OF THIS TO TRY AND STOP PAYMENTS TO PEOPLE UNDER AN ANTI-HUNGER PROGRAM.
Oh, this is wild.

DOJ went to SCOTUS *before* we got the First Circuit's administrative stay denial. (We know this because DOJ just filed a letter at SCOTUS about the admin stay denial.)

So, DOJ went to SCOTUS b/c the First Circuit did not meet its less-than-seven-hour "deadline" for a ruling.
