The Trump administration is being open about its plans to violate Americans’ First and Fourth Amendment rights.

Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October.
She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE.

Does this resemble any dignified method you know of for carrying a person who uses a wheelchair? Because it doesn’t resemble at all what we learned in flight attendant training and looks really uncomfortable.
These are ICE-contracted guards lifting a migrant in ICE custody.

The feds are escalating in Los Angeles. We've seen record high kidnappings and our communities are under attack. The media focus on LA has died down so electeds don't feel the need to even feign opposition.
People are out here fighting. We need all of us. Join the struggle. Defend your neighbors.
