“This immigration issue is a remnant of Subu’s original case. Since that wrongful conviction has now been officially vacated and all charges against Subu have been dismissed, we have asked the immigration court to reopen the case and consider the fact that Subu has been exonerated.”

NYC earlier today: Following yesterday's political-motivated indictment of Attorney General Letitia James by the fascist Trump regime, protesters in New York City rallied and chanted "Hands off Tish!" in support of her.

WATCH- @chrislhayes.bsky.social on the "incredibly dishonest and downright dangerous new talking point being pushed by MAGA:"

“Republicans on Capitol Hill are claiming that peaceful protesters are part of a terrorist network hell bent on destroying America.”

It's clearer by the day that Columbia making a deal with Trump in July was a catastrophe for higher education as a whole. It gave terrible people a bottomless appetite for extortion. The other eight universities must follow MIT's lead.

Jimmy Kimmel has been asking viewers to send in videos with #showmeyourhellhole in Democratic cities President Trump has targeted, including Portland and Washington, D.C. On Thursday night, he turned to a “very special report” filed by Gov. JB Pritzker.

Reporting in 'war-torn' Chicago, Pritzker mocks Trump's 'hellhole' narrative on 'Jimmy Kimmel'

The governor filmed a video near the Monroe Street Bridge Thursday afternoon as proceedings were underway at the Dirksen Federal Courthouse in the lawsuit filed by Illinois and Chicago against the Trump administration's plans to deploy the National Guard in the city.

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

Hillary Clinton on the midterms: "When they eliminated the enhanced premium tax credit for the ACA, that hits very soon, in the next 30-60 days. Healthcare costs for million of Americans are going up 75% ... so reality is actually gonna bite ... 'okay, who is in charge now?'"
