A federal judge in NY has blocked any effort by the Trump administration to deport Mahmoud Khalil – whose arrest and imminent deportation Trump celebrated on Turth Social today — until further proceedings play out. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The line about due process is lip service. It’s clear the ADL, which gave Elon Musk’s Naxi salute a pass, has already decided that Mahmoud Khalil must go because of what they think he believes. If they can do this to him they can do this to you and me. If we believe in democracy we must defend it.

Martin Luther King Jr's "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" perfectly described and predicted this moment.
In general, we are very much entering a time he had warned us about if the Civil Rights Movement wasn't fully realized.

Leonard Peltier, a citizen of the Anishinabe & Dakota/Lakota Nations, has been imprisoned for nearly 50 years for a crime he says he did not commit. His story is tied to the American Indian Movement (AIM), Wounded Knee, and systemic injustice. 🧵 #FreeLeonardPeltier
