A Black teenager was accused of stealing a backpack and ended up dying by suicide because he was kept in solitary confinement at Rikers for years. His name is Kalief Browder. He spent over 700 days in solitary confinement AWAITING TRIAL. I guess in racist America that’s worse than this.

“Honey, they’re hitting us.” 💔 That’s what a woman says her husband told her from inside Delaney Hall. She says detainees were beaten, gassed, and injured. Now she says they’re cleaning up the blood. Every elected official should be at Delaney Hall demanding answers RIGHT NOW. #SheShed

Governor Sherrill needs to camp outside Delaney Hall until they let her in. Human beings are being tortured in her state.

JUST NOW from @statuscoupnews.bsky.social livestream — ICE agents outside Delaney Hall in Newark, NJ pushed a protester into an 18-wheeler causing the truck to run over his leg. They then pinned him on the ground and carried him away.

Two days ago a sitting US Senator was pepper sprayed for protesting ICE and it didn’t even become national news.

ICE is building a car fortress in front of Delaney Hall. Based on my experience with ICE, I would guess they feel severely understaffed and need the extra barrier.

The UFC is a great example of everything that's gone wrong in American pop culture, sports, and the economy generally over the past few decades: an organization run entirely for the benefit of its owners that leaves broken minds and bodies in its wake while catering intentionally to awful people.

An NBC News investigation finds dozens of examples of criminals imitating ICE to rob and attack people www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Happening now at Delaney Hall. Protesters are outside the facility demanding the release of Martin Soto, the leader that started a hunger and labor strike to protest inhumane conditions. iCE has rolled in a tank and is pointing their weapons on peaceful protesters that are forming a human chain.

These are federal goons attacking a sitting US Senator with a noxious substance for being present at a constitutionally protected protest in conjunction with his permitted oversight duties.

ICYMI — Israeli settlers installed screens in a square as if it were a soccer match, cheering every bomb that explodes the homes of families in Lebanon… dystopian… (From Trita Parsi) @tparsi.bsky.social

DC friends, they've started up checkpoints again. There's a checkpoint at Rhode Island Ave NE and South Dakota Ave NE. And fuck ICE.

More on ICE agents detaining a person in North Chicago this morning, leaving a child behind in a car:

The most dangerous thing Trump exposed wasn't corruption. It was how comfortable America became watching it happen in public.

UPDATE: @GovBillLee says he will NOT halt the execution of Tony Carruthers tomorrow “FALSE TESTIMONY SENT HIM TO DEATH ROW. TENNESSEE IS ABOUT TO KILL HIM. Carruthers’s murder conviction hinged on the claims of paid informant who repeatedly recanted.” theintercept.com/2026/05/20/t...

Over 300 detainees at Delaney Hall signed an S.O.S. letter about the horrid conditions they are facing: rotten food, lack of medical attention, and so much more. Yesterday we went to inspect Delaney and that letter is correct. The solution is closing Delaney and abolishing ICE.

If you thought ICE went away, you'd be wrong. They're still terrorizing Memphis, and harassing people who try to record them. @samanthamichaels.bsky.social reports for @motherjones.com on the new lawsuit filed by @aclu.org.

Congress works 140 days a year and earns $174K annually, plus full benefits. How can anyone survive on that without a few stock trades and a little insider trading? They get 225 days off a year and think it’s okay to hold the federal minimum wage at $7.25 an hour for 17 years.

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

If you're reading this, my cat and I have boarded a one-way flight out of the United States. The Trump administration wrongfully denied my work permit renewal; after months of demanding that they follow the law, we have run out of legal recourse, and I have no choice but to leave the country. (🧵)

Gerontocracy is how I still occasionally see people talk about AOC being too "young" and "inexperienced" for a presidential run despite the fact that in 2028 she will be 39 and have spent a quarter of that life as a US congressional member sitting on 5 different oversight and finance committees.

We've become numb to this stuff, but a president accusing a journalist of treason -- a capital crime -- for reporting on an ongoing war is not normal, and we should never accept it as normal.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

WIC used to have bipartisan support because even Republicans said "Well of course we want to make sure pregnant women and babies have enough to eat, we're not monsters," but now they say "Screw those freeloading babies, we've got a gold-plated ballroom to build"

#OtD 13 May 1985 Philadelphia police attacked the home of Black liberation and environmental group MOVE, then dropped a bomb on it, killing 5 adults and 6 children, destroying 61 homes in the predominantly Black neighbourhood, and making 250 people homeless.

Child protective services ripped a 14-year-old from her home to stop her from leaving the state for an abortion. They also threatened her mother with murder charges and the removal of her other child if they crossed state lines for care. So please don't tell me Republicans aren't banning travel.

"[C]orporations only exist because states allow them to. Which means that every power a corporation has was given to it by the state. Hawaii just took one of those powers off the list—starting next year, corporations in Hawaii can no longer spend money on state + local elections." #ShareGoodNewsToo

A transgender student at University of Washington was stabbed to death. 💔 Transgender people face over four times the incidence of violence than do cisgendered people. The endless stream of anti-trans hate and misiformation from the right fuels that violence.

A University of Washington trans student was fatally stabbed in her campus housing building and the suspect is still at large. abc7news.com/post/seattle...

Trump can’t stand a black woman who is smarter, tougher and more prepared than he will ever be. I’m with Rachel Scott.

Yesterday, Trump pointed at Rachel Scott of ABC News and said "she's a bitch" after Ms. Scott asked him about rising gas prices. It will be old news by close of business today. Once again: Trump is held to a different standard by legacy media.

PA Gov Josh Shapiro is trying to derail the congressional run of Democratic PA State Rep Chris Rabb because Rabb is anti-genocide, anti-AIPAC, pro-universal healthcare, & pro-labor. If you’re in PA-3, your candidate must be Rep Rabb. It’s time for new leadership beholden to people—not money.

new zealander everlee wihongi was due to meet with her lawyer yesterday. then ICE moved her to their most notorious tent facility in texas: 3000 people, highest death rate, most sexual assaults. and today, she disappeared off the system. please RT: www.webworm.co/everleehasdi...

Masked federal agents held a teenage boy at gunpoint, pushed him facedown on the ground, and arrested him. Cellphone video showed the 19-year-old bleeding out of his head as ICE agents put him in their vehicle. Only in the car did agents realize they arrested the wrong person. trib.al/o2TQBEz
