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.

Finally, we hear actual legal terms. Thank you @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu

As someone who studied EU Policy, I appreciate this.

My question is though - how stable is any ceasefire if Russia is entitled to keep what they occupied even if the change to actual, legal UA borders isn’t recognized?

Letter from Epstein survivors to Congress:

"Your primary duty is to your constituents. Look into the eyes of your children, your sisters, your mothers, and your aunts. Imagine if they had been preyed upon. Imagine if you yourself were a survivor. What would you want for them?"

Let’s be clear: Trump changing his tune about releasing the Epstein Files isn’t about justice — it’s an admission that he and Republicans are going to lose this vote.

I’ll be voting YES on legislation to release the files and give the American people transparency.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

In 1969, 74 Americans lost their lives aboard the USS Frank E. Evans.

Because of where the ship sank, those sailors have been denied the honor and recognition of being placed on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall.

It is long past time to right that wrong.
