What an inspirational speaker. So important to also talk about victimized males too! Thank you @davidleegarlock.bsky.social

We shall not see the likes of the great Reverend Jesse Jackson again. He leaves us with a legacy our state will never forget. Rest in my power, my friend.

April is #SecondChanceMonth. What we need to really think about is it being #FairChanceMonth!!!! Not everyone had a FIRST CHANCE, while others have needed more than a Second Chance because of the way the system is set up!!!! Ppl coming home from prison need opportunities and support

Professor @buchhandler.bsky.social and the Criminal Law Society welcomed @davidleegarlock.bsky.social for “From Abused to Accused.” A survivor of long-term abuse, he later became a defendant after killing his abuser, sharing insight for prosecutors & defenders. #ReentryAdvocacy #VictimizedOffenders

ICE has kept a disabled double amputee prisoner for over 14 months. Rodney Taylor has been denied access to his prosthetic legs. Forced to crawl across dirty floors to access food. Placed in solitary. Denied medical accommodations. They’re killing him & he needs the community to make noise!

So a CBS Evening News reporter actually did a pretty solid breakdown of the ICE murder video, talking to a former agent who details all the ways Ross messed up. And yet: It didn’t air on the actual show tonight. CBS did post it to YouTube—and it has nearly 800k views already youtu.be/6ywLEESFDu0?...

After the House refused to display it, the Senate unanimously agreed to hang a plaque honoring the officers who protected the Capitol on Jan. 6. It only took five years. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

Philadelphia in candlelight. A city paused. Love showed up for Renee Nicole Good.

13 yrs ago, #BryanStevenson, helped get my parole transferred from Alabama to PA to attend college. This one act changed my whole life, the work I have done and the impact I am having!!!

Time to admit they don't have a case. This is just embarrassing for the “Justice” Department under Pam Bondi.

Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva has still not been sworn in four weeks after her win. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes is suing House Speaker Mike Johnson, citing “taxation without representation.”

Had a great time working with #AnthonyRayHinton yesterday and @eji.org Anti Hunger work. Check out there website to learn more.

F*ck‼️ Fort Bliss Army base used for a WWII Japanese internment is now the nation's largest ICE detention center.

Gavin Newsom’s Twitter account is up 450% in followers since June and the number of people searching for him in Google is up to 1300%. Maga is freaking out !

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers. Easy money, no risk. Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime. @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

Before the Senate votes on Trump’s Tax Scam, there will be a “vote-a-rama.” This is when senators can propose endless changes that their colleagues then need to vote on. You probably have some creative ideas for amendments. Submit them now to help keep vote-a-rama going for as long as possible. 👇

Remember: Ds must make this a career-ender for every R who votes for this monstrously cruel bill

2 presentations I can do at you school or conference!!!! #menendezbrothers www.davidlgarlock.com

@JD-Vance-1 Happy Juneteenth!!!!

No one is better at explaining things than @petebuttigieg.bsky.social. Wishing you all a wonderful and MEANINGFUL Juneteenth! 🖤

OMG YES… say that‼️ @tarasetmayer.bsky.social nails it. Honestly, we’ve been waiting for politicians to catch up to where the people are—and it’s getting damn late!

Ted Cruz is doing the most Ted Cruziest thing imaginable - posting a bunch of clips from a debate that he lost.

This is so wrong. All to feed the ego of a mad tyrant who never had the balls to serve. This is not what we do in America. This is so fucking wrong. Makes me so sad. And so angry.👇

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

Castor: They told Heidy Sánchez, ‘Come in early—we want to check on your status.’ And she did the right thing… And at that ICE meeting, they took her. They took her away from her child. This is a breastfeeding mother. They flew her to another detention center in Miami, and then onto a plane to Cuba.

This deserved a meme.

A Spoken Word that is part of my #TEDx. Take a minute to listen. So many people are walking around with masks on. They need to know that it's safe to take their mask off and to be their authentic self

I always thought that habitual offender laws and three strikes laws emerged in the 1990s as part of the tough-on-crime era. But then I was looking through old state codes and I saw a three strikes law from 1923. Then I found dozens from around this time, and wondered (naively) what was going on.

YESTERDAY: Largest strike in LA history - boosted by loss of Federal Grants. 55,000 union members striked and 10,000 marched. SEIU Local 721

#JustMercy and @osheajacksonjr.bsky.social He is such a Great human being. So humble and down to earth

Thank you to everyone who showed up, good news, the judge has been released!

NEW: A federal judge raised alarm Friday that the Trump administration appeared to have deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with "no meaningful process" — even as her father was fighting to keep her in the country. Details w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

The 1st pic is me walking out of prison on April 1, 2013. The 2nd pic is after 12 yrs of Freedom!!! Love all of the doors that have and are opening. This is my Redemption Tour!!!

Had such an incredible time speaking at @uofdenver.bsky.social yesterday!!! The classes and prison food presentation went amazing!!! Love being able to use my story to educate the next generation and using my scars to help people heal.

Join me at the @unlv.edu on August 6/7 for the Everyday Solace Foundation's 2025 Criminal Justice Mental Health Conference with @bakarisellers.bsky.social, @davidleegarlock.bsky.social, @officialsaulpaul.bsky.social, and other dynamic speakers. Tickets: cjmhconference.com

@aoc.bsky.social: "Listen, if your representative is not doing a town hall, give me a ring... I'll say it right here, right now: if a deep red Republican district wants to have an honest conversation, even if it's with someone they disagree with, I'm willing to do that."

Excited to be heading to Denver on Sunday for the #ACJS conference. Also blessed to be speaking at @uofdenver.bsky.social and @ucdenver.bsky.social

The fierce women at Beyond the Bars! #beyondthebars #nyc

NOTE: The opponents of DEI are purging anyone who is not a white man from military leadership This is not about merit; it’s about normalizing racism and misogyny
