ICE shot a man in Glen Burnie and the story they told was contradicted by:

1. ICE’s own photos
2. Bystander video
3. Lawyer for another immigrant at the scene
4. Anne Arundel County Police

Now ICE is revising its story.

Just to be clear, Bernie Sanders and Josh Hawley proposed a bill in the Senate a year ago, along with AOC and Luna in the House, to cap interest rates on credit cards at 10%. It is nice that Trump has suddenly decided to get on board with it in an election year.

Maybe now is a good time to remind folks that Elissa Slotkin was one of the 7 Senate Democrats who voted to confirm Kristi Noem.

Once you remember that, the fact that she’s making excuses for ICE and equating them with law enforcement makes a lot more sense.

In case anyone didn’t believe in the literacy crisis among the kids, my eighth graders loudly complained about being given a six page story and it took many of them about an hour and a half to read it. And then lots of them said they didn’t get very basic things in the story. And I’m so tired.

Strange isn't it... the people who actually live in London overwhelmingly think it's safe.... almost like everyone else is falling for a lie
I wonder what Londoners know that the rest of the country don’t?

You can judge a person by the size of their moral circle. Trump, for instance, has the smallest possible moral circle, containing only him. Be the opposite: expand your circle. Include, for example, animals currently raised for food. We shut them out of our consciences. It's time to bring them in.

"Have you not learned from the past couple of days?" is ICE Stormtrooper lingo for "We just murdered a nice woman because we fucking felt like it, and we will murder you too."

Stephen Miller is a psychopath. In another reality, he would be in a cell with a muzzle on his face.
This looks like the trailer for a serial killer documentary on Netflix.

But it's a Stephen Miller advocating for torture and getting excited by it.

A reminder from Huffington Post that DHS and ICE have opened fire on unarmed civilians 16 times since Trump took office, killing 4 people. In every case, DHS claims that the victims "assaulted officers" and/or tried to ram them with cars. In every case, evidence proves they are lying. Every time.

Literally, everything #Clinton and #Harris said was going to happen if #trump was elected, have all come to pass. Many of them are far worse and in more depraved ways than they suggested when they tried to warn us in 2015 and 2024.
