The Plot to Enslave America
The goal is a permanent underclass and no upward mobility.
Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” is an extinction-level event for higher education that would annihilate the country’s intellectual potential.

For @newrepublic.com, we wrote about Trump's plot to Un-Educate America.

Really feel like the NYC mayor’s race shows that there is no such thing as a progressive establishment, and there is, in fact, an anti-progressive establishment that runs all the way from Murdoch to Clinton
Former President Bill Clinton is endorsing former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, his former HUD secretary, as the Democratic establishment tries to attempt to ensure Zohran Mamdani does not win the Democratic primary for NYC mayor. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/n...

NEW: Data shows that as of June 15, fully 30% of all people arrested by ICE and sent to detention had NO CRIMINAL RECORD.

11,763 people in detention as of last Sunday had no criminal record and were arrested inside the country by ICE -- an increase of 4,000 people in two weeks!

Notable how many different candidates for NYC mayor are coming together to support Lander for supporting New Yorkers targeted by ICE and which candidates evidently do not see themselves as part of the same movement or community
Not present: Eric Adams or Andrew Cuomo.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds.

He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.

He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.

This is political intimidation.
Whoa! NYC mayoral candidate and current city Comptroller Brad Lander seemingly arrested at the NYC immigration court while attending to escort someone attending their hearing.
Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant.

This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

Isn’t it about time ICE friendly NY Dems(Torres, Schumer, Jeffries) reverse course and vigorously talk about consequences for these ICE actions. Demonstrate some courage for a fucking change.
One of our leading citywide elected leaders and candidates for mayor peacefully asks masked ICE agents to see a warrant and is violently arrested.

Horrifying and disturbing for what it is and what it represents. Fascism. www.amny.com/news/brad-la...
