May this one day happen to them.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

The #Trump administration has announced their operations in Minneapolis have “concluded” and will “drawdown” their presence.
While this provides reprieve for a city that lost two souls, ICE and DHS continue to terrorize communities across the country. It must end.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

She's 8 MONTHS PREGNANT & was kidnapped by ICE...or someone!
When ANYONE can mask up, dress as ICE & rent a black SUV, what's to stop them from just kidnapping people?
In California, we passed a law against masks & it's not being followed.
Police aren't protecting us, no one is.
