If you can, please donate to the 7500 S. Shore Tenants Union. These folks endured that shitty stunt of a raid by CBP are now being kicked out of their homes with 2 weeks' notice in the middle of winter.

I see there is no mention of how this will be enforced by state police, who have been assisting federal agents in their kidnapping scheme. What is the governor doing to ensure the top cop is on board? And if the top cop isn’t on board, will he be replaced?

Food for thought: As families across the U.S. sit down for Thanksgiving dinner, it's hard not to think about the nutritionally inadequate slop that incarcerated people are fed every single day (including holidays). It doesn’t just taste bad – it’s a public health concern 🧵
