Read this very carefully. A man who emigrated to the US as a child, as a WWII refugee, has been taken by ICE for being in the country "illegally."
In no world, never mind in a country that claims to support the rights of individuals, should that sort of thing happen.

79-year-old Paul Bojerski was born to Polish parents in a WWII German refugee camp. His family legally emigrated to the U.S. when he was 5.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Trump’s assault on SNAP doesn't just starve families. It exposes a cruel, long-running political project of the right. Cammy Pedroja examines how withholding food aid reinforces gender and class hierarchies that keep women from equality.

This is patently false.
DHS has authority to question and search people coming into the country at points of entry.
But ICE may not detain and question anyone without reasonable suspicion — and certainly not based on their physical appearance alone.
This lawlessness must stop.
