My sister and friend Sujood has been doing whatever she can to help her community, even while she and her family fight to survive.

She is just $6,375.90 away from completing the fund for her family.

I ask you, please give and share. Let’s close this fund today.

On the Alien Enemies Act proclamation, we have several matters of immediate importance pending.

First, after a TRO was denied in the N.D.Texas district court on Thursday, lawyers have gone to the Fifth Circuit and the Supreme Court seeking emergency relief.

They also went to Boasberg in J.G.G.

🚨There are reports that ICE may disappear around 177 people at Bluebonnet Detention Center in TX to #ElSalvador today.

When we say we need this type of leadership - we mean, NOW.

Call (202) 224-3121 & urge your reps to try to STOP the plane. @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social
We're so glad to see Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive. We thank @vanhollen.senate.gov for fighting for his constituent. It's the type of leadership that we need to see from Congress for ALL immigrants disappeared to CECOT without due process.

We shouldn't be sending anyone to a torture prison. Full stop.
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

WOW. They grabbed her off the street even while the State Department itself said that she had done nothing wrong.
BREAKING: Days before she was detained by ICE, the State Department had determined Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk did NOT engage in antisemitic or terrorist activities. Rubio revoked her visa anyhow. Gift article: wapo.st/4j8d5Uh
No evidence linking Tufts student to antisemitism or terrorism, State Dept. office found
An internal memo, prepared before Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk was detained by ICE, raises doubts about the Trump administration’s claims that she supports Hamas.

[This is general info and not legal advice]

The State of IL provides forms for a power of attorney (POA) for property so you can appoint a trusted person to handle your financial and property matters + a power of attorney (POA) for health, for someone to make your healthcare decisions as you limit.

No one will remember Biden’s self-congratulatory remarks today.

Generations will remember, with horror, what Biden unleashed on the people of occupied Palestine and the Middle East at large.

Be less interested in Obama + Trump talking and more interested in how Dems in Congress are cozying up to regressive and xenophobic conservative policy.

84-9 voted to advance the Laken Riley Act in the Senate. Analyze that. Stop taking the bait for distractions while our rights are given away.

2025 makes it 20 years since the love of my life died by suicide.

Please be kind to those in grief, especially those triggered by recent news events, and please take care to use language that does not cause harm.

Manmohan Singh and Jimmy Carter dying within days of each other feels like a message from the universe, though I cannot discern what that message is.

I’m a gigantic Chris Cornell fan but I did not realize he was against the Iraq invasion from the jump and spoke out against it publicly when the war was hours old, and when roughly 80 percent of the country was for the war www.sfgate.com/music/articl...
Audioslave gets political at Warfield / Cornell goes after Bush, Rage-style
True to his word, the songs on Audioslave's debut album hewed closer to the introspective...

I missed years with my parents as a teen and young adult. It is such a joy, and privilege, to spend so much time with them now.
