Just a reminder that ICE didn't exist until 2002. It's not some longstanding institution that must be maintained. It was created as a knee-jerk reaction to 9/11, and it could be gotten rid of as easily as it was created.

The president fails to realize how deeply Somali Americans love this country.
We are doctors, teachers, and elected leaders working to make our country better.
We will not let Trump intimidate or debilitate us. My op-ed:

The president’s obsession with the Somali community and me is really unhealthy and creepy. He is trying to deflect from his failures and sinking approval ratings. Sorry, Trump, we all see through your attempts to hide from your broken promises.

I am almost certain that there is some amazing Wheel of Time news for book readers as of November 19th. Today I went to B&N to browse and found a copy of The Shadow Rising Trade Paperback with no Prime logo. I think they are releasing them now without the logo. #booksky 📘1/4

In a Black Friday news dump, Announces Pardon for Honduran Ex-President Convicted in Drug Case.
Donald Trump is OK with major drug trafficking by fascists. This is necessary background to his contention he is killing Venezuelans because they are “drug traffickers.”

Living your life as your true, authentic self shouldn’t put a target on your back. But that’s not the case for too many transgender Americans, and it must stop. I stand with the trans community as we remember the lives taken in hateful acts of violence.

Every reporter should ask Trump one question: Why do you think it’s okay to belittle women journalists — to mock, dismiss, and degrade them?
This isn’t tough questioning. It’s basic accountability. If you can’t respect the press, especially the women in it, you don’t deserve the platform.

All I'm saying is if Subway doesn't find a way to put what he ordered on the menu, it's a missed opportunity.

Last year after the election, I reflected: "When we fight, we win—but sometimes the fight takes awhile."
Last night, we saw Democratic victories across our nation. I am so proud of these enthusiastic, principled, inspirational leaders who will continue to fight for our nation, ideals, and progress.

you let him get away with stealing your state secrets, stashing them in his toilet, and handing them out to the russians, saudis, and israelis, 🇺🇸

It is a very short step from the military killing alleged drug traffickers off the coast of Venezuela to the military, ICE, or others killing people inside the US for crimes, real or imagined, as directed by the president.

Pritzker's been saying this for awhile and it's significant that Trump has never denied it.
Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"
