Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw. The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Quiet part, meet out loud.

AP is back in court today to defend itself and the right to speak freely without government retaliation.

They just got him on tax charges, too.

Marimar Martinez is a US citizen who was shot by ICE five times in Chicago. She was then arrested, labelled a “domestic terrorist” and slandered on social media. All charges against her have been dropped. In this interview she shows on of the seven holes the ICE agent put in her body.

It is so blatant now. Yet they still don’t get it. That even their own racism was created for them by the wealthy to keep them poor. Will they ever get it?

JUST IN: A federal judge says one of the Venezuelan men — illegally deported to El Salvador in March before he was swapped back to Venezuela in a prisoner exchange — is now missing, possibly a victim of the violence he was seeking asylum from. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

TEN MONTHS IN: The national debt is higher. The trade deficit is wider. The inflation rate has worsened. The unemployment rate is up.

The US has stepped back from defending democracy.

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain. The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.

On Saturday, goons broke a window of Willy Aceituno’s pickup truck outside the Pollo Campero restaurant in Charlotte. Aceituno, a U.S. citizen for approximately six years, reported the incident.

This should alarm everyone. On Thursday, Florida, by unanimous vote, became the first state in the country to adopt “The Phoenix Declaration: An American Vision for Education.” It was written by the Heritage Foundation, the same group behind Project 2025. THIS IS INDOCTRINATION
