The DOJ won't release all of the Epstein Files (no surprise there). Who's going to finally hold this administration accountable and force them to release them all?

When the people can't afford to eat, and can't afford to distract themselves from not eating, things start to get really dicey, really fast.
This new Politico poll should stop us all in our tracks!
50% of Americans are struggling to afford groceries, let’s start there. Then add the fact that we have a president who thinks we’re lying about it.
I’m just waiting for the next poll that asks, “Does the president care about people like me?”

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?
A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

This implies that we get proper training in the office. Which...yeah.
Entirely remote work means less training and opportunity for advancement, especially for younger workers, new research suggests. Here's what economists say.

Maybe the reason he did it is because settling in occupied territory is illegal? Do some research for once.
Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

We are tired of being taken advantage of and overlooked by a system that only exists because we pay into it, just for it to play in our faces like we're stupid.

"What another slap in the face." Amanda Roberts, sister-in-law of Epstein survivor Virginia Giuffre, responds to the GOP un-redacting Giuffre's name to defend Trump. "It is just beyond reprehensible of this White House, of the Republican oversight committee to do that, to violate her in that way."

We need more Kat's in the Senate. Not from IL but will definitely be looking forward to seeing her join the new and growing class of progressive Dems in Congress.
Come join with others to stand against Trump's political prosecutions, against ICE's attacks on our communities, and for freedom of speech and the right to protest.
See you tomorrow.

Trump just made it abundantly clear. He doesn't give a solitary fuck about you, your kids, or anyone not giving him money.
The fact that this Supreme Court cannot see past its own grift is sickening.

This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
