BREAKING: We're suing President Trump over his attempt to shut down asylum.
No president has the authority to override the protections Congress has granted to people seeking safety at the border.

When Congressman John Lewis was a child, he tried to get a library card. He was turned away & told “The Library is not for coloureds” 💔
He’s a civil rights icon, lover of books, recipient of the National Book Award for Young People’s Literature.

GOOD NEWS: A federal court temporarily halted President Trump's order to freeze all federal funding, including grants for public health, education, and safety.
Trump's order would have devastating consequences for communities in every corner of the nation. Our leaders must block it for good.

This morning I’m thinking about the fact that Babyface went to the studio and recorded a 5 minute track about being elated over the fact that he was whipped for his lover.
I need to feel this energy on my next go round with love 😅😮💨.

Trump's expansion of fast-track deportations violates federal law and the 5th Amendment by denying immigrants due process.
So we'll see the Trump administration in court.

I feel horrible for my immigration attorney friends. From 2016-2020 they fought hard for clients and still had to deliver bad news.
Some left the practice area because it was a nightmare. Praying for those still in the fight.
