This clip of a teacher who worked with Yuanxin, the 6 year old boy who was abducted by ICE and separated from his dad, completely crushed me. And DHS still won’t say where Yuanxin is. www.tiktok.com/@ranafromque...

RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women". Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

feel like not nearly enough people are talking about this — apparently the democratic “yes” votes have effectively agreed to having the u.s. government write 6 republican senators $500k checks?

It’s a sign of the times that the only Americans who will be able to obtain damages for constitutional violations are these corrupt Senators whose rights weren’t violated at all. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

NYC is going to have the world's biggest media-manufactured crime panic in history the second Mamdani is elected. They aren't even going to wait until he is inaugurated. Whether or not you like the guy, you need to start preparing now for the fire hose of disinformation that is about to activate.

CBP Officer: "I could smell the onions & Mustard!" 🤣😭 Defense Attorney: "Do you recognize that sandwich?" 😭💀

Reps for a dozen nonprofits that lost federal funding to do community violence intervention work—due to Trump's DOJ cancelling their grants—say they've had to cut staff & programs, which will undermine public safety. Here's the story of one, Equal Justice USA, that didn't survive. @motherjones.com

Ah. Who could have guessed this might become a problem? www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

When the grift pays better than government work…

BREAKING: Judge rules that during its large-scale enforcement operation in LA, DHS/ICE has been arresting people without probable cause -- based on factors like accent and line of work. She orders the agencies to stop. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Alligator Alcatraz from within

Trump's secret police now has a budget larger than the US Marine Corps. And here's a look at how they're spending all this money.

For a detailed analysis of case law on administrative v judicial warrants & the line between obstruction and asserting your rights, read my student’s amazing new paper: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

I updated this piece from February with new guidance on what workers and owners can do if ICE shows up at your restaurant www.eater.com/24364171/ice...

One of our earliest civil rights statutes was designed to protect us against masked gangs who violate our constitutional rights. This particular history makes the masked ICE gangs uniquely repugnant. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

"A teenager on his way to volleyball practice, a young father picking up baby formula and construction workers on their way to job sites." These are Trump's targets, not the violent criminals he promised. In the end, we will all be less safe. Read on. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Who built this? We built this! And when I'm Mayor, we'll build even more.

“When artificial intelligence is used to diagnose cancer or automate soul-crushing tasks that require vapid toiling, it makes us more human and should be celebrated. But when it sucks out the core process of advanced cognition, cutting-edge tools can become an existential peril.“ Appreciated this.

With a shocking and unprecedented level of aggressiveness, the Administration has been targeting Democratic officials on trumped up—and often transparently baseless—charges that they’re interfering with Trump’s immigration crackdown. My latest: www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

Answer: YES. Nice piece by Ezra Klein on Lander’s many accomplishments.

Just days ago, Brad Lander called me to interpret for an Arabic-speaking asylee whose case was approved, yet ICE was still harassing him inside the building. Brad personally escorted him out to safety. He does this kind of work quietly, every day.

You know it's pretty bad when a state has to bring state murder charges against someone and not federal, so that the President doesn't have a chance to ever pardon him😏

Claiming he "assaulted law enforcement" is so obviously belied by the video, which shows no such thing.

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Chilling, poignant.

You’re seeing a lot on TV rn about force and misconduct in Los Angeles sheriff department's role. Well, here’s what happened when someone tried to get serious about bringing accountability to the department: she faced huge pushback… and now she faces criminal charges. boltsmag.org/the-curious-...

Our able men and women in uniform swear an Oath to support the Constitution—they didn’t sign up to spend the weekend in a military parade to feed the insatiable narcissism of an incorrigible insurrectionist/dictator.

do this. #hellnocuomo

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country. We will hold this administration accountable.

Put this on a billboard.

THIS IS IMPORTANT. Armed federal law enforcement is ultimately tiny. Dwarfed by states & locals. Many of whom are elected or directly accountable to electeds. Watch & reward the local law enforcement leaders who are loyal to the Constitution, not the wanna be King.

"They took her in a car, in essence kidnapping her ... I met another young woman whose husband has quite literally disappeared" -- Newsom shares harrowing details of specific cases of ICE terrorizing immigrants in California

A real war just broke out in the Middle East bc of his incompetence and recklessness and Trump is going to have a military parade for his birthday.

This searchable map of No Kings marches to join on Saturday is impressively crowded: www.nokings.org#map

In Donald Trump's America, if you say "I am Senator Alex Padilla, I have questions for the Secretary," you get thrown to the floor and handcuffed.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”

The state of California needs to arrest the DHS "security" forces for assault and every Democrat in the U.S. Senate needs to sign onto a campaign to impeach Kristi Noem. Right fucking now.

More and more outrageous. @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov, it's time to start arresting federal employees who clearly violate state law and act beyond their authority, whether in handcuffing our officials or ramming cars on public streets www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

A sitting US Senator. We are running out of time.

It’s completely insane that US troops are illegally deployed to suppress domestic opposition and it’s not uniformly condemned by the press and political elite.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Not a doctor. Not a scientist. No. A longtime heroin addict and current steroid enthusiast who perjured himself in confirmation hearings in order to pursue a twisted agenda that will kill more Americans than Osama Bin Laden.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

How extreme is the June 7 Memorandum on federalizing the National Guard? One of several issues: It has NO geographic limit. None. No mention of California or any other state. It's open-ended. Now this from President Trump: "Well, we're going to have troops everywhere."⬇️
