And expected.

Reminder: Most mass shootings are carried out by cisgender men.

An estimated 93,000 will die a premature death due to the loss of SNAP between now and 2039.    The ‘Make America Healthy Again’ party would rather people sink deeper into poverty and food insecurity than get the essential assistance they need to buy groceries.

The White House's memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize. “What you have is this desire to get people to buy into the fun of sadism,” says Jason Stanley, an author who’s leaving the US because of “concerns over fascism.”

In the not shocking category, ICE raids suppress employment, including by US citizens: “Persons reporting private sector work in CA decreased by 4.9%, with citizens forming a greater share of the decrease. The state’s downturn in work is comparable with the Great Recession & the COVID-19 pandemic.”

The surge in smashed windows may be only the beginning. Speaking about Trump’s signature spending bill, which triples the size of ICE, border czar Tom Homan told a conservative Christian conference: “You think we’re arresting people now? You wait.” By @nicolefoy.bsky.social & @mckenziefunk.com

We’re about to do this for the economy

Heartbreaking.

Make it plain.

the one thing i genuinely did not anticipate from this administration was its vicious, know nothing hostility to any and everything that might even be adjacent to science and scientific research. they genuinely one to destroy the entirety of the nation’s research capacity. and for what, exactly?

Know your rights, now in improved colors, in case you get stopped by ICE. 🧵 lataco.com/car-ice-rights

The ICJ affirmed that countries can be held liable for conduct that contributes to significant climate harm, incl. supporting continued fossil fuel activities "The court said in no uncertain terms that climate impunity is no longer allowed"- Vishal Prasad www.climateinthecourts.com/world-court-...

The disturbing traffic stop video of William McNeil in Florida is the link some of y’all may need to see how we get from normalizing policing and prison to an administration that funds ICE at the level of the top 15 world militaries.

They mean to be as insulting to Black people, as dismissive of our lives, as resistance to our status as full citizens in this country as they can be. There is no common ground to be had at the expense of our sisters & daughters’ lives and our dignity as a people. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/17/u...

I want to be clear: this is what American prisons are like. I spent years posting about the humanitarian crisis in U.S. prisons. The criminal legal system consigns Americans who are incarcerated to live like this FOR YEARS. DECADES.

Good. President Trump's deployment of thousands of federalized National Guard troops to LA is a dangerous abuse of power intended to scare people who oppose his draconian anti-immigrant policies into silence. This partial reversal proves what we already knew: When we fight back, we win.

Yeah, like I said. Racial profiling is not legal just cause you wanna do it.

Grotesque.

You have the right to document and observe all law enforcement including ICE. Shining a light on their actions is often the only way to hold them accountable. Know your rights, and exercise them.

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.

This. Is. Insane. Read this, please.

The Trump administration says it targets undocumented “criminals,” but a Times analysis found that 69% of Angelenos arrested by ICE in early June had no criminal convictions, and 58% had never even been charged with a crime.

A pregnant woman detained by ICE was denied care, shackled, & faced awful conditions at four different facilities. Then she lost her baby. I'm updating my bill, the Pregnant Women in Custody Act, to ensure pregnant women detained by ICE and CBP receive the care they deserve.

We live in a rogue and dangerous country. Do what you need to do to maintain your internal peace. Hold the core of your spirit. Pray for peace. Commit yourself to justice. And just rest.

Let’s remember how Trump’s military occupation of LA began: —ICE raid arresting garment workers at a factory —ICE raid arresting day laborers @ Home Depot *Raids arresting workers* This has nothing to do with deporting criminals & everything to do with creating a militarized terror police state.

I'm outraged by DHS' violent arrest of SEIU-USWW President David Huerta at the Roybal Federal Building in Los Angeles. Full statement:

not enough said about how, by turning the national government against states on the basis of ordinary political disagreement, trump is undermining the idea that the union is worthwhile. www.cnn.com/2025/06/06/p...

We cannot arrest our way out of homelessness. Solving homelessness requires improving access to affordable housing, mental health care, and addiction services. People need housing, not handcuffs.

Putting a pause on Job Corps programming is dealing a blow to underserved communities. Young people across the nation depend on these programs for job training, housing, and a shot at stability. This can’t stand.

President Trump has repeatedly attacked due process, a right guaranteed by our Constitution. We all rely on this fundamental freedom every time we engage with the justice system.
