Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

Eric Swalwell: “How many times does Trump’s name appear in the Epstein files? Is it a thousand?

Kash Patel “No, nowhere near that.”

ES: “Is it 500?”

KP: “No”

Turns out it’s 38,000.

THIRTY EIGHT THOUSAND TIMES.

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

Trump gave a foreign power access to America's highly advanced and protected AI chips in exchange his personal enrichment of half a billion dollars.

This makes Watergate look as if Nixon had driven three miles over the speed limit once.

The ACLU wants to hear from any families with kids or anyone who was significantly impacted by the use of chemical munitions at yesterday’s protest. Please email my office so we can help connect you with their legal team.

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

The issue isn't whether "Melania" is a good movie or a bad one. It's that one of the richest men in America, with business interests affected by public policy, gave the President's family $75 million to make it. Like that's somehow legal.

Before this weekend's #ICEOut marches & other events after #NationalShutdown, here's my regular reminder to #MaskUp!

Wear A #Respirator Mask, & take extra #N95s to share

Find (or start!) your local #MaskBloc, & encourage others to #WearAMask

#BeInclusive
#Solidarity is keeping each other safe!
✊😷

Imagine driving down the Miracle Mile in 1967 and seeing this in your rearview mirror...

Fear not, it's just sculptor Howard Ball in a VW towing one of his fiberglass mammoths to be installed at the La Brea Tar Pits.

Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores.

TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti.

Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret.

Big Tech is enabling Trump's regime.
