Many of you ask how you can help support my work without having to donate monthly through Substack. I struggle with asking for help, but this latest project requires it and this is one of few avenues with which to do that when you’re labeled an enemy of the state. Thank you.

When Congress cannot even protect its own members from sexual abuse, what hope is there for the rest of us?
The performative outrage of Congress.

Maybe it's just me but I don't think Jeffrey Epstein's clients should be the ones to decide if Jeffrey Epstein's clients should be prosecuted.

's book Against The Wall and I recommend the living daylights out of it. I had a sense that border patrol sucked, but I had no clue the corruption, abuse, and criminal activity was THAT bad. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing and fighting like you do, Jenn Budd.

Not particularly surprised, to be honest. This was always a huge long shot of a law; states generally have little to no authority to regulate federal behavior.

No! ICE must be abolished! Pretending these agencies just need guardrails means you just believe they are poorly trained. They are not. They are trained to be corrupt & brutal. But you know this Senator. You know this.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is using official press releases to message that Westerners (they mean white people) are superior to people from the Global South (they mean non-white people). This is a dangerous, backwards position for our government to take. /also, "murdered .. to death"?

Meanwhile, ICE has not slowed down. They are just going about it quietly, which means the violence we saw before was performative, encouraged & unnecessary.
