SCOOP: Nursing home companies donated $4.8M to Trump's super PAC in Aug-Sept.
Their executives landed a lunch in Aug. with Trump at his NoVa golf club where they asked him to revoke a rule to increase staffing to prevent patient neglect.
His administration revoked the rule a few months later.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Weaponizing a federal agency with a budget bigger than most militaries to kill American citizens in the streets, deport US veterans, and illegally break into people’s homes – and then lie about it all, repeatedly – most certainly meets that weighty standard.

The Department of Homeland Security was created to make Americans feel safe and secure at home. Secretary Noem has failed at this mission; and today, millions of Americans are living in fear because of the agency’s actions. That makes us all less safe.

Secretary Noem had many chances to take accountability. The Trump Administration had many chances to hold her accountable. At every turn, they’ve doubled down on their cover-up of her egregious violations of the public trust. It is clear that action must be taken by Congress.

ICE is a threat to public safety.
Killing U.S. citizens. Kidnapping Americans. Ignoring the Constitution.
That’s not law enforcement — that’s weaponization and abuse of power.
And the cruelty starts at the top.

Instead of demanding that ICE be abolished, we’ve seen a number of Democrats call their agents improperly trained.
Things wouldn’t be different if funding paid for more tech or training.

The truth is: better training will not keep ICE from committing acts of violence.
This agency is only 22 years old— it was created to protect powerful interests, not everyday people.
No amount of reform, defunding, or training can change that. Abolition is the only solution. (3/4)

"Talkin' 'Bout a Revolution" the definitive anthem of her political and social activism.
Even decades later, its minimalist production and powerful message feel as relevant as ever.
