71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data. Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.” As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

Rite Aid closes all remaining stores after 63 years in business

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: "Private establishments can partner with us to make it clear that private property is private property and ICE cannot enter establishments without a valid warrant ... If Congress will not check this administration, then Chicago will."

Important to note ICE tends to drop off detainees before 9 a.m. and after 6 p.m., which is why people were protesting at 5 a.m. to begin with. It's not because waking up at 4 a.m. was a convenient time for protesters!

The acting CDC director has finally signed off on the vaccine advisory panel's recommendations for the COVID vaccines. While the CDC is trying to sell this as a win for antivaxxers, in reality this means that COVID vaccines will be more accessible than they have been in recent weeks.

“Partly funded” is doing a lot of work here. Vought’s ex-wife (because of course he is divorced) has publicly stated they would not have even had access to the drug without federal funding of clinical trials (how his daughter receives the expensive drug) in addition to its development funded by NIH.

Harold Meyerson sat in on a court case in LA which made clear that Amazon controls every aspect of the work experience of delivery driver "contractors" while claiming they are not a joint employer. It would be devastating in a world with actually functioning labor law.

This is why the markets are going to have such a tough time when the bubble bursts. This money doesn’t exist, and suggesting it does or humoring it is how companies get away with what amounts to lying. $4.5bn per quarter “by 2026”?? So in the next three months? Huh?

(Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Monday to hear Ghislaine Maxwell's bid to overturn her conviction for helping the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein sexually abuse teenage girls, steering clear of a case that continues to hound President Donald Trump ..

I guess the president is rushing to send troops into blue cities because his friends in Congress can't stonewall the release of the Epstein Files forever.
