Exactly! But they pretend they aren't. Just like they pretend they are agents of white supremacy.

It's wild how quickly WRONG social media can be, isn't it?

Everyone's stuck on "Oh noes the Dems CAVED! They BETRAYED us!" when if you actually parse it out it looks more like they SAVED millions of people from loss of SNAP & no paycheck.

But something something Schumer blah blah woof woof. 🙄

The reason that these Black-owned farms are able to do this is because they never go the subsidies the white farmers did this. And when Biden tried to correct this, the white farmers got mad. But now the Black-farmers are not being hurt as bad by Trump's policies. Reverse Uno Card here.

I can't help but notice those accounts whining loudest about "DEMS CAVING AGAIN AS USUAL" are mostly privileged white men, backed up by a bunch of privileged white women.

You know, the people least likely to be affected either way.
Curious.

We're debating on the government funding package right now and every single Republican voted against a Democratic amendment to pass a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits.

Republicans just don't care about your health care.

We’re really stupid. Shouldn’t we be upset with 50 Republicans instead of 8 Democrats?

1/? Please do not vote for him! He said that he would not support Hakeem Jeffries for Speaker of the House. As Black people we are fighting a two-front war. The GOP is trying to dilute our voting power with gerrymandering and the "left" is trying to dilute b/c they want to be "the base". WAKE UP!

Everyone screaming murder at Democrats- The CR only lasts until January 30th. Negotiations continue. This gets those on SNAP and Federal Employees through the holidays. Including Air Traffic controllers and the CDC. Why are people against that? Are those screeching giving up food or a paycheck?

All this fuss over a CR that expires January 30th? And we’re right back in the same place again? Seriously?

Thank you @democrats.senate.gov we don’t need our environment destroyed and energy bills increased by these Data Centers. AI is a scam.

My statement on the funding deal to reopen government, protect federal employees, and vote to protect health care:
"I have long said that to earn my vote, we need to be on a path toward fixing Republicans’ health care mess and to protect the federal workforce. This deal guarantees a vote to extend Affordable Care Act premium tax credits, which Republicans weren’t willing to do. Lawmakers know their constituents expect them to vote for it, and if they don’t, they could very well be replaced at the ballot box by someone who will. This legislation will protect federal workers from baseless firings, reinstate those who have been wrongfully terminated during the shutdown, and ensure federal workers receive back pay, as required by a law I got passed in 2019. That’s a critical step that will help federal employees and all Americans who rely on government services. I’ll keep working towards a long-term government spending plan that includes critical priorities to support Virginians and funding for Virginia community projects."

The latest update on conditions inside Broadview's ICE facility, where a magistrate judge is planning a visit this week.

The Trump administration says it's "compliant" with an order to provide phone services so detainees may communicate with counsel.

Plaintiffs "continue to have concerns."
JOINT WRITTEN STATUS REPORT The parties, by their undersigned attorneys, hereby submit the following joint status report pursuant to the court’s November 7, 2025, order (Dkt. 57) to apprise the court on the government’s compliance with the attorney-client communications provision of the court’s temporary restraining order (Dkt. 49). Defendants’ Position: Para. 10 of the TRO requires defendants to “provide telephone services for each Detainee to communicate with the Detainee’s counsel in private and without cost.” Defendants are compliant with this provision. Detainees have access to a government phone and private area to call their attorneys free of charge upon request. The government has set up a new phone number (708-316-4200) and email address (BSSA.Outreach@ice.dhs.gov) that attorneys may use to initiate contact with their clients. The new Broadview phone number is not fully operational yet, so the government will be using the phone number to the guard shack call (708-316-4192) in the meantime. This number is for attorneys only. Attorneys may also send email requests to email Chicago.Outreach@ice.dhs.gov and CHI-ERO-Detained@ice.dhs.gov until the new Broadview email address is fully operational. The email addresses will kick back an auto reply to include the phone number that attorneys may use to coordinate calls to their clients. The phone number will also be distributed to the Chicago AILA Chapter. The telephone calls are not being monitored or recorded In terms of nighttime lighting, the facility has implemented a 11 p.m.-11:15 p.m. to 5 a.m.- 5:15 a.m. “lights out” period where the lighting will be dimmed (absent any exigent circumstances such as during detainee transfers for safety reasons). Defense counsel asked that plaintiffs’ counsel test the phone number and emails on November 8-9, 2025, and report back in an attempt to trouble shoot before today’s noon deadline. Counsel for the defendants was not made aware of any of the issues reported below until five minutes before the filing deadline. The defense will look into plaintiffs’ complaints. Plaintiffs’ Position: Plaintiffs cannot verify whether Defendants are compliant with the provisions of the TRO concerning attorney-client communications. Plaintiffs continue to have concerns that attorneys are not able to arrange calls to their clients in a timely fashion. The new phone number that the government has set up (708-316-4200) still does not work. As described during the last court hearing, the phone line cuts off after an attorney navigates through the automated menu. On Saturday, November 8, 2025, around 2:45 p.m., Defendants’ counsel provided Plaintiffs’ counsel with the phone number to the Broadview guard shack, as mentioned above (708-316-4192). Plaintiffs are in touch with an attorney, Shelby Vcelka (who testified at the TRO hearing) who called the guard shack number on Sunday afternoon before 3:30pm in an effort to set up a call with her client. She was transferred to a supervisor who told her that someone would call her back within 48 hours. As of 8:30 am today (Monday), she had not heard back. Plaintiffs submit that a 48-hour response time is far too long, particularly given the substantial rights at stake while people are detained and processed at Broadview and the fact that people may be transferred elsewhere sooner than 48 hours. The new email address (BSSA.Outreach@ice.gov) generates an auto-reply, but it lists the ICE Chicago Field office number (872-351-3990). That number disconnects after an attorney navigates through the automated menu. The auto-reply does not contain the guard shack phone number. The Chicago.Outreach@ice.dhs.gov and CHI-ERO-Detained@ice.dhs.gov email addresses do not generate auto-replies. We have received one report from an attorney who appears to have emailed both the BSSA.Outreach@ice.gov mailbox and Chicago.Outreach@ice.gov mailboxes and subsequently received a phone call from a Broadview official in response. That attorney was able to have a phone call with her client. It is not clear to Plaintiffs which email inbox precipitated the response. Nor is it clear to Plaintiffs how frequently either of these mailboxes are monitored or whether attorneys consistently receive a prompt response and client call. Plaintiffs have no information about whether detainees are being provided with the means to make free, unmonitored, and private phone calls to attorneys, or where that is being facilitated within the Broadview facility. With respect to nighttime lighting, Plaintiffs have no information at this time about whether or how Defendants are implementing the new “lights out” period they describe to the Court. Plaintiffs have received no further information about whether detainees are now being provided with a bedding mat or bedding, and have also received no further information about food service at the facility.
