Vicente has been missing for seven weeks after being taken into DHS’ custody and experiencing a medical emergency.

His family has no answers on where he is or if he is safe.

The Trump Administration cannot get away with disappearing people.

The FBI pulled all-nighters and burned nearly $1M in OT trying to redact the Epstein files all the while Trumpworld argued over what to hide or release. The panic says more than the pages do. Transparency shouldn’t be optional. What are they hiding?

anyone who’s into anime or comics before it became mainstream is well aware of this fact.
I really do not understand why we can’t be nuanced and admit that some Black people genuinely were rejected for being weird and that “weird” was often equivalent to “white.” 😵‍💫

"When he was asked if he threw “a canister of CS gas,” Bovino said he did not."

“Okay. Why not?” he was asked."

“You said canister. I threw two... That’s plural,” Bovino responded."

He also said they were justified in using tear gas at that Halloween parade, but he hadn't seen any footage

When I went home to Mississippi last week, a Black farmer welcomed folks to pick greens from his land for free. It made me wonder whether other communities across the country were also giving back ahead of the holiday.

The answer: yes, they are.

Haiti is grappling with an unspeakable humanitarian crisis that is worsening daily.

To deport 350,000 of our neighbors back there is unconscionable & could be a death sentence.

The Trump Administration must reverse course and stop operating with cruel disregard for human life.
