ICE is using a new app called Mobile Fortify to scan people's faces and determine their immigration status.

The government's use of biased, unreliable facial recognition tech to supercharge its mass deportation campaign endangers all of our rights.

A federal judge just called out “government misconduct” in the Comey case judge forcing prosecutors to hand over a trove of documents to Comey’s lawyers. This blows a hole in the MAGA deep-state narrative.

Thank you, @citizensforethics.org for being unrelenting in your efforts to ensure transparency and accountability, and make things right in Washington DC. Your work is invaluable and so very appreciated!
NEW: We're suing 12 agencies for records about President Trump's DC takeover and ongoing deployment of the National Guard in the city.

The public needs to know the full cost of the deployment and what may have been deprioritized as a result.

We grew this country through immigration. Almost all of us are immigrants or family of immigrants. But 47 is anti immigration of brown or black immigrants. If you are whiter than a sheet of bleached paper you are welcome. Follow and love your neighbors.

Truly believe that @nikkolas_smith art will go down in history as important social commentary pieces like #normanrockwell, while more inclusive in his messaging…

No ma’am. I have a disabled friend & I had been checking with her daily. I had to help her buy groceries.
She just got a letter yesterday saying I had to reapply for benefits before the end of the month to see if she qualifies under the new guidelines. Another damn road block.
