ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year!

Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him.

He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary.

His health is declining.

Public outrage might save his life.

Say his name:

No parent should ever be denied the chance to bury their child. This is not enforcement. It is cruelty. I will continue to use my voice and oversight authority to demand accountability and a system rooted in basic humanity.

Election law experts are questioning the legality of the FBI’s unprecedented seizure of 2020 election ballots in Fulton County, Ga. in a raid that has further inflamed fears of federal interference in the upcoming midterm elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
FBI’s Fulton County raid may have been illegal, legal experts warn. But it definitely raises fears for 2026
'This is a test run for 2026... Trump could try to seize voting machines or otherwise interfere with state ballot tabulation processes in swing districts around the country.'

What is this
@captmarkkelly.bsky.social

House Republicans just introduced a measure to REPEAL the 17th Amendment of the US Constitution?!

They want to ban the people from voting for our US Senators.

Instead, they want the Legislature to appoint our Senators.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

And when this is all over, you will see these same CEOs engage in revisionist history, claiming they never supported the current state of affairs. Remember - corporate CEOs don't support democratic ideas - they support whatever allows them to make the most money.
