Talked to a Somali man today who said his mosque last night was surrounded by neighbors ready to protect them against ICE if needed. Made me feel proud to live in this city.

CBS News aired it in full. CBS never disclosed this threat. And it was a softball interview.

The White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CBS News on Tuesday that President Trump would sue the news outlet if it did not air an interview with him in full.

As of Thursday, ICE-Gestapo was holding over 73,000 people in their concentration camps, a record amount in their disgraceful 23 year history.
They aren’t a law enforcement agency, they are a militarized terrorist organization that should have been disbanded long ago.

Nick Miroff: After 9/11, George W. Bush created the Department of Homeland Security to prevent future terror strikes. Now DHS shifted from defending the country against foreign terrorists to deploying agents on American streets for the purpose of terrorizing American citizens.
‘Maybe DHS Was a Bad Idea’
Two decades after its founding, the department has become what its critics feared.

Healthcare sure but...those pastries though....
More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.
They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

"If you don't give me my imperialist vanity project, I'll impose a hideously unpopular new tax on working people and continue using the revenues from it to fund tax cuts for wealthy elites" is quite a political message!
This is absolute madness. Legal experts: Is there any chance this shifts the calculus inside the Supreme Court on the tariffs case?

Repression almost never announces itself by targeting everyone at once. It begins quietly, aimed at minorities, those with less power, fewer allies, or voices that are easier to ignore. Their rights are restricted, their freedoms narrowed, and their suffering dismissed as exceptional or deserved.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.

Donald Trump is not legally President. He *is* an insurrectionist, and is fully banned from ANY office under the United States. Swearing in a banned person to an office does NOT fill that office. So, keep hating him. He isn't POTUS, and we owe him nothing.
