Resist. Trump will keep losing. And his legal battles and Epstein are stretching the DOJ thin.

He has dropped his appeal of the $1.2B demand from UCLA.

This fight was not from tepid administrators or the faculty senate

It was from the DeFacto faculty union and the UAW.

“ICE was our first customer 43 years ago, and has been our largest customer for over a decade,” CoreCivic CEO Patrick Swindle said on the earnings call.

The Epstein files, the genocides in Gaza and Sudan, the attempts to purge any vestiges of democracy in the US and elsewhere exposes the lack of any moral compass, the deep contempt for humanity, and the grift and cruelty driving the behavior and political actions of the rich and powerful.
Ghislaine Maxwell has offered to exonerate Donald Trump in the Epstein case in exchange for clemency. Journalist @carolecadwalla.bsky.social notes this “naked transactionalism” mirrors Jeffrey Epstein’s own business model of running a “global trade in favors” among the rich and powerful.

Even before Trump ICE abused immigrants and refugees in these for-profit prisons. The next time Democrats control Congress, they must #AbolishICE and dismantle DHS. It was created by Bush and should have been dismantled in 2009. How about addressing actual threats, like the climate crisis?
