For 14 years, policies have largely deterred immigration police from conducting arrests in places such as schools or churches. Trump rescinded that policy.

DOGE has been sued for not taking the legally required steps “federal advisory committees” must take, such as filing a charter with Congress, keeping regular minutes of meetings, and ensuring meetings are open to the public.

It’s been inspiring to see everyone come together for LA,,, but there’s one community I need to highlight.

Not enough is being done for the black families after the LA fires. Ive partnered up with GoFundMe and the BMAC to create ONE main GoFundMe campaign to immediately help those in need.

The birthright citizenship order goes into effect in 30 days and prohibits federal agencies from issuing citizenship documents (such as passports) to the—to be clear—citizens in question.

But that's simply not how any of this works. Read @timothypmurphy.bsky.social:
Actually, the 14th Amendment still exists
Trump signed an executive order purporting to rewrite birthright citizenship. That's not how the Constitution works.

So the Orange Menace tanks a bipartisan bill because he doesn’t want the dems to get any “wins”, proving himself to be the biggest loser of all.

Hate-watching House Hunters International. Do these people not hear how privileged and obnoxious they sound? “I really want to live in your beautiful country, but I want it to be America”

The Orange Menace is coming and the planet is burning, but today a student chose me as the education leader to do her Heroes of Education project on, so I think I can make it another day.

Finished watching #dopesick on #hulu last night, and I can’t stop thinking about it. If there was ever a starker portrayal of the evils of greed, I don’t know about it. So much pain caused by so few selfish individuals.

1. In April 2024, California raised the minimum wage for fast food chains to $20/hour

The industry claimed it would be devastating & require significant job cuts and prices increases

Here is what really happened: workers got a raise, prices went modestly, and the industry continued to add jobs
What really happened after California raised its minimum wage to $20 for fast food workers
What would happen to the fast food industry if it had to pay its workers something closer to a living wage?
