Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

It may seem impossible to have hope in these turbulent days
But America has been through much worse, and recovered-every time
The Civil War
The Great Depression
World Wars I and II
The Civil Rights era
So don’t give up
Stay engaged
Support one another
We will get through this
And we will win

Obama: I believe in an America where we don't fear each other. But look out for each other. And if we want that story to continue. If we believe in that better story. We need leaders who believe in it too.

If you need the food bank right now, there’s no shame. Shame belongs to a system that pays poverty wages, cuts childcare, and lets healthcare bankrupt families.
If you can give, do. If you can’t, that’s okay too.
We rise by lifting each other.

Quiznos? Cosi? Subway? Jimmy John's? Jersey Mike's? Any sub shop I visit from this day forward will be judged not only on the taste & value of its sandwiches, but their weight, velocity, & stability of their wrapping.

Listening to Jess Piper: She’s a survivor who knows how much victims need justice. But she warns—fascism isn’t a distraction from that fight. It’s the plan. Authoritarians silence survivors, erase rights, and protect predators. We have to fight both.

Here’s an idea:
Dems should build teams of canvassers to go door to door and ask people what their plans are if their Medicaid is cut.
Arm them with a list of meds and the costs, and a list of facility closures & so on.
This helps both gather and spread information, gets the community involved

Jeffries: I think it was because the framers of this great country, they were fed up with project 1775. So they implemented project 1776.. Understand what our journey teaches us is after project 2025 comes project 2026. And you will have an opportunity to end this national nightmare
