Black History Month matters, especially now.

At the same time that politicians try to sanitize history, gut the Voting Rights Act, and roll back civil rights protections, we’re reminded that progress has always been contested.

Starbucks Workers United baristas are escalating their fight for a fair contract.

I urge you to keep boycotting Starbucks — and delete its app from your phone.

Workers are fed up with low pay, chaotic scheduling, understaffing, and illegal union busting.

Let's keep fighting corporate greed.

"Why Is the Media Not Touching Jeffrey Epstein’s Clear Connection to Israel?"

They’re instead focusing on the possibility that Epstein was a Russian asset, writes Prem Thakker for Zeteo.

A brand new Super PAC — Elect Chicago Women — just dropped hundreds of thousands of dollars into this race. Why?

Because it’s actually a front for AIPAC dark money. And they’re doing everything they can to buy my race:

Uhhh, ya sure. All true. But there are some, um, bigger problems with that "memo."
As far as I know, this is DHS's first effort to explain their position that I-205 forms allow entry into the home. They rely on the dicta in the 1960 Abel case (before Payton) and re-imagine the plurality opinion in Lucas as if it were the majority (and then overrely on it).

Trump claims ICE's Minnesota raids — which have already killed two Americans — are justified to root out "fraud."

Meanwhile, he's pardoned multiple convicted fraudsters, including several who gave money to his campaign and Super PAC.

The "law and order" president.

People at taken to Whipple are released into the cold in whatever they were wearing without their phones and IDs. Volunteers meet them at release (or find them left in parks and the woods) get them a burner, warm clothes, food, a ride home, etc

Target in Minneapolis has pulled Hispanic employees off of pick-up order duty after ICE arrested two US citizen Hispanic employees while on the job.

“I’m literally a U.S. citizen!” one shouted as they escorted him into a van.

Ah come on. Back on the streets already? They at least deserve a little vacation for doing exactly what the administration wanted them to do.
CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.

This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

If you are angry, stay angry. They want us to think this is normal and how life will be.

I’ll be dammed if I ever let that happen.

Also, ICE shouldn't have firearms at all in this context! They are a civil/regulatory enforcement agency. When they are doing domestic immigration enforcement, they don't even enforce criminal law!
My take on what is clearly murder: a bunch of insufficiently-trained ICE agents dog-pile — and subdue — the victim with multiple guns drawn (why were the guns out?!). One of agents accidentally discharges his improperly-drawn gun, spooks the rest, and then they all unload in to the unarmed victim.

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

At a time when ICE is rounding up 5-year-olds, terrorizing communities and killing American citizens, the last thing we should be doing is increasing its funding.

I will vote NO on the upcoming spending bill to fund Trump's domestic army.

My god. The memo cites one case...which stands for the proposition that YOU DO NEED A WARRANT!
This is insane. INSANE. Without any legal basis at all, this memo says ICE doesn't need a warrant (or probable cause) to break into someone's home to arrest them. It's like a memo that says, "Actually, you DON'T have the right to remain silent."
ICE secretly told its officers that any time someone has been ordered removed, ICE can break down their door.

It has been accepted for generations that the only thing which can authorize agents to break into your home is a warrant signed by a judge. No wonder ICE hid this memo!
