This is unconscionable. Evil.
But it happened in May 2023, when Biden was president.
So no, we don’t “reform immigration detention,” we destroy ICE, CBP, and DHS. We can’t reform this soul sickness.

Anadith Danay Reyes Álvarez died in government custody.
She had sickle cell and congenital heart disease but couldn’t access timely and adequate medical care.
We need to reform immigration detention.

Working people do not benefit from war, corporate greed, or the violent theft of another nation’s resources. CUPE condemns the U.S. military attack on Venezuela and the kidnapping of its elected leaders, an illegal act driven by profit, not democracy. Canada must stand up for Venezuelan workers.
CUPE is outraged by the United States’ unlawful and lethal attack on the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. We are shocked that the U.S. military bombed this sovereign nation. This is a clear violation of international law and the UN Charter.

I know it's not mainstream conventional wisdom but I think "Abolish ICE" is a perfectly reasonable response to this and you can get the public to buy in. Most people don't want masked murderous thugs roving their streets

This is what our government has sent into cities across the country to arrest normal, nonviolent working people. Insanity.

"Adults are able to make hard choices and articulate them and stand behind them.

Scrapping the two-child limit *is* welfare reform. Defining ‘reform’ solely as ‘cut’ is one reason why it’s proved so difficult

As we await a verdict in the trial of Soldier F, another reminder that in 2010 the Bloody Sunday inquiry found
- the killings were unjustified
- none of the 14 dead (7 of whom were children) had guns
- no warnings were given
- no soldiers were under threat
- the troops were the first to open fire

The UK right is fully into "remigration" now, and Labour is just trying to sell it's own harsher immigration policies as more practical, rather than challenging this extremist policy head-on
The Conservatives currently propose to retrospectively remove the ILR of permanent residents who aren't earning £37k, or who "accessed state support" They set no time limit re arrival or time of ILR. (Most people with ILR are pre-2020 arrivals)
Reform would do same but at £60k not £37k threshold

"Canada Post is on track to lose money" Hum. Duh. It cost less than a toonie to send a letter across Canada.
"Canada Post is a service and not a business" was common knowledge until late stage capitalism brain rotted most people into think if it ain't making money for shareholders, it's failing.

What are the odds that he's come to this conclusion bc only the US and Canada use brand names for common, over-the-counter medication?
Trump: "There are parts of the world that don't take Tylenol. There's a rumor, and I don't know if it's so or not, that Cuba, they don't have Tylenol because they don't have the money for Tylenol, and they have virtually no autism. Okay? Tell me about that one!"

Trump: "We're seeing that there are no ships in the ocean anymore ... no there are no boats. I wonder why? Meaning, no drugs are coming across. Probably stopping some fishermen too. To be honest, if I were a fisherman, I wouldn't want to go fishing either. 'Maybe they think I have drugs downstairs'"

I recently looked up the Arabic translation of some of the names of the emaciated children used in coverage of the alleged famine in Gaza.
It turns out that many of them were sick before the war and have long, complicated medical histories. Our reporting shows they do not represent the average.
