Folks, I’m still looking for an immigration attorney who works on deportation defense (and appeals) for the family I wrote about here. IL and IN based preferably.
Since I started working on this article the number of people kidnapped by ICE has *tripled* truthout.org/articles/ice...
ICE Kidnapped My Neighbor in Broad Daylight. The Aftermath Left Me Reeling.
Watching disappearances in our community leaves psychological trauma, but we can counter it with our solidarity.

This policy would strip about $39 million from Oregon programs and put people at real risk of returning to homelessness.

Here he’s responding to someone who pointed out that very few people detained by ICE have a criminal record.

On that note, I urge anyone trying to get pregnant to get tested for clotting disorders, even if you have to pay out of pocket, and especially if you are over 35. Something like 20% of people have clotting disorders, and most don’t know it until something bad happens. Don’t wait for that.

In 1945, the US Army put out a training manual intended to help rank and file soldiers spot incipient fascism in the US. One of the telltale signs that one was dealing with a fascist was that they called everyone to their left "a communist." bsky.app/profile/seth...
The third fascistic tactic to watch out for is their tendency to label anyone they disagree with who is to their left "a Communist." Fascists claim that they alone can save their nations from "the communist menace." Anyway, the 2024 GOP platform contains the phrase "Christ-hating communists."
