ICE PEPPER SPRAYED A ONE-YEAR-OLD because her mother was filming them.
ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.
Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.
They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.
Another horrific story.
More details below.

The Supreme Court’s Shadow Docket Has Become A Lawless, Explanation-Free Rubber Stamp For Trump’s Authoritarian Agenda
When Joe Biden wanted the Department of Education to forgive student loans, the Supreme Court shut him down hard. The Court spent pages in Biden v. Nebraska explaining why the Department lacked authority under the HEROES Act, demanding "clear congressional authorization" for such a significant policy change. But when Donald Trump wants to dismantle the entire Department of Education without any congressional authorization?

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Supreme Court Blesses Human Trafficking With No Explanation In Stunning Abandonment Of Rule Of Law
The Supreme Court just gave the Trump administration a green light to traffic humans to random countries around the world—including war zones where migrants face torture, slavery, or death. And they did so while offering literally zero explanation for why this is legal or constitutional. In a shadow docket ruling yesterday, the Court stayed a lower court order that required basic due process protections for people being shipped to third countries.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Trump’s “Liberation Day” Tariffs are designed to liberate Americans from their hard-earned cash and will:
- Make groceries more expensive
- Crash markets and retirements
- And make it harder to build and make things in America.
How do we know? Anyone…anyone?
Because, we know.
The chaos must end.
