Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.
ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.

“Any DOJ official who does not comply with this law will be subject to prosecution for obstruction of justice,” Ro Khanna said in a House speech this week. “If Pam Bondi does not comply with the law, she will be held either in inherent contempt of Congress or subject to impeachment.”
Let’s go.

Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

A majority of Indiana Senate Republicans stood together to reject Trump’s mob-boss politics.
There is more power in standing up to a corrupt, unpopular administration rather than playing its game.
Law firms, universities, foundations, and media companies should take note.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.
They are openly saying this.
Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

I think that map is going to end up backfiring on Texas. They’ve given up some bright red districts in hopes of gaining more red-ish ones.
In a high turnout election, a lot of those seats could very well turn blue.

Yellowstone national park is witnessing a striking ecological recovery, driven by the return of one of the US’s most iconic species, the bison.
There’s good news out there if you look for it. 🦬

This is both A) incredibly suspicious, and B) within what I would accept as normal levels of government incompetence.
So, you know, we'll see how the judge takes it.

An interesting tidbit in the joint status report filed in the Broadview ICE facility case today:
ICE says video from inside the facility "between October 19, 2025, and October 31, 2025, has been irretrievably destroyed" and can't be produced in discovery.

This land return and tule elk reintroduction is a significant milestone in California's relationship with the Tule River Indian Tribe.
We're taking critical steps to confront the historical wrongs committed by the state against the Native people of this land.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
