Laura Jedeed on applying for a job with ICE: "I expected them to Google me, and they didn't ... they sent me a final job offer ... what's disturbing is we don't know who is wearing these masks with guns in our city. We don't know if they have domestic violence convictions."

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

This is an emergency! Don't let this go!
Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it.

Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids.

Don’t let this go!!!

The bad news is your truck is held together by glue. The other bad news is that they're going to "fix" it with more glue.

If we can "avoid a government shutdown" by voting for this CR, then why is the entire Department of Education closed today? Why is USAID closed? Why are hundreds of billions in grant contracts frozen?

We are already in the shutdown. And your votes DON'T stop it. In fact, they allow it to expand.

Important post underscoring the significance of Trump's attack on the Perkins Coie law firm. It's not about a single firm, Trump's action provides "a blueprint for using government power to silence any effective opposition to authoritarianism."
There are a million horrible things happening all at once, but wanted to take a moment to focus on the exec order against Perkins Coie and how it's an attempt to make it difficult for anyone to use the legal process to challenge all this law breaking.

Just to spell this out: you, too, are not breaking the law. Versions of this could happen to any of us.
NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more.

The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law.

No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

Morally bankrupt. Unexcusably wicked. All done in our name.
I know this is brutal to look at, my friends, but we all need to face reality and bear witness to what happens when greedy billionaires cut off aid to the world's poorest children.

How callous do you have to be to let children suffer and die to line the pockets of the wealthy and well-connected?

Who will work the fields after all the migrants are deported? Just anyone taking any kind of legal or illegal psychiatric/long term pain medication. For 3 to 4 years. With no cell phones or screens of any kind.

So ... regular people sent to work camps. Nothing gulag about that!

In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.

Composure, Saints! This is a vital witness to our faith in Christ in any era of chaos.

Upon waking, let us meet with Jesus and trade our fear & anger for his courage & compassion.

Rely on God.
Read Scripture.
Be brave.
Pray valiantly.
Act like grownups.
Help the hurting.
Love defiantly.
