ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

Sen. Mark Kelly told NPR "it just doesn't make any sense" for him to face a military court-martial after he and other Democratic lawmakers released a video reminding active-duty troops that they don't have to follow illegal orders.
Sen. Mark Kelly: Trump and Hegseth don't 'understand the Constitution'
Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., and other congressional Democrats released a video last week letting service members know they can refuse illegal orders. Kelly is now being investigated for misconduct.

Trump voting men rank having children as their highest priority in life, and rank having emotional stability dead last. Those poor children.

The International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women on 25 November isn’t just a commemoration: it’s a reminder that violence against women is never just personal. It is political. It is structural. And it is our collective responsibility to challenge it.❤️

“The more Trump keeps bragging about the greatest economy in the history of the world the more people will see him as a conman... He can’t convince most people that they’re not seeing what they’re seeing when they go to the supermarket.”

America Is Finally Starting to See Trump for the Bullsh*t Artist He Is
He came to power through a relentless assault of lies. But the debt owed to the truth is coming due.

My daughter and I visited the house we lived in when she was a baby, and she was shocked a 29-year-old Navy guy could afford a nice house in a safe neighborhood.

That wasn’t crazy in 1996 — but today, a nice house is out of reach for so many young people. That has to change.

@crow.house.gov says Trump is threatening him with arrest & even execution-for the "crime" of honoring his oath & standing with our troops. Crow warns that these threats expose exactly who this president is: a man who fears our democracy.

Steven Rattner: If the Trump administration wants to increase home affordability, they need to build more homes. Deporting construction workers and increasing economic uncertainty certainly isn’t helping.

You know what detained Georgian protesters do right upon release?

They go back to the protests that same day.

Sopo Markozia is one of such people.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.
