A US Federal Judge ordered the release of the people DHS now plans to hold anyway, illegally under both US and International Law.
15 of the people arrested at Broadview yesterday were clergy, peacefully protesting; bringing assistance to and advocating for the downtrodden quite literally _is_ their job.
But DHS/ICE/CBP brings only lawlessness and violence.
DHS and all its components and collaborators are a clear and present danger to the American People and the US Constitution.
ICE is pulling out of Chicago, for now.
In the process, they created patentently illegal, unconstitutional chaos.
The result? They detained 614 immigrants. Only 16 had any kind of criminal record.

Dr Oz isn’t mincing words, he’s stating the regime’s eugenicist goals loud & clear
“Want to drop the cost of healthcare in America? Get healthy”
Where does that leave disabled and chronically ill people?
We can’t “choose” to get healthy.
Just like we didn’t “choose” to be disabled.
They have no plan for healthcare.
Their plan is to leave us behind.
for the first time, I can legitimately say "hello new people following my account.”

Remember: the only reason that makes sense why #ICE would deny clergy access to the #Broadview detention facility to minister to the detainees is because they believe the substantial bad press and messaging damage from publicly denying clergy access is less bad than the damage that would result from the clergy seeing inside the facility and telling people what they saw.

A Chinese immigrant has died in ICE custody.
He was found hanging with his hands and feet tied behind him in the “hog tie” position.
Deaths within these camps continue to rise, with more people dying in the last nine months than in the entire previous four years.
Chaofeng Ge did not deserve this
No one deserves this
His family are fighting for answers
One thing is clear… these camps must be shut down

Here's the thing about the pet eating story. Yes, it's bonkers. It's ridiculous. But it's also classic racist propaganda. It's painting the people you want to scapegoat as something so evil, so alien, that nothing you do to them is too cruel or extreme. "They took our jobs" is meant to drive votes. "They steal and eat dogs" is meant to drive violence.

The Great American Comeback with Biden-Harris:
• Nearly 16 million jobs added
• Stock market keeps hitting record highs
• Strongest post-pandemic GDP growth in the world
• Much lower unemployment & inflation than Reagan in 1984
• Employment for prime-working-age Americans at a 23-year high
#Protest text/graphic for tshirts, posters, etc
I came up with the design using the #LibreOffice Writer word processor and sent it to a vendor on Etsy to make a 2-sided #tshirt. (Anyone interested in getting this shirt can go to https://www.etsy.com/listing/1690766536/personalized-text-design-shirt-custom and ask for a "Tax The Rich" tshirt based on order #4008923866. Specify front or front and back.)

The exonerated "Central Park Five", wrongly convicted of felony 35 years ago, took to the #DNC stage to testify Trump's cruel execution sprees and pursuit of the death penalty. Yusef Salaam, activist against the death penalty, was one of them.
Meanwhile Dems have re-popularized using "felon" as an insult and silently dropped opposition to the death penalty from their platform

Trump isn’t acting alone. Trump has never had a game plan other than to do whatever it takes to make him rich and abuse the powers of government to eliminate his enemies.
Trump is the greasy face of Republican leaders.
Americans need to target the low-hanging fruit of Republican leaders to neutralize Trump.
and a reminder: Republicans have never been half of USA eligible voters. they have been a dwindling minority for over 30 years.
we are more than them & they know it.

In the pre-revolutionary France of the eighteenth century, decadent rulers said “après nous, le déluge” — “after us, the flood.” We care not at all about the consequences of our actions; we are here to profit so long as we can. This is the attitude of Musk, Trump, and the rest. They are in it for themselves, provoking disasters for the rest of us along the way.
