Sadly the best news piece I’ve seen about Memphis recently was not by a local org. This is a good read though and was enough to get me to donate to Indivisible Memphis.

I'm a veteran criminal justice reporter. I've never seen anything like ICE-occupied Memphis.

I was honored to join the Wisconsin State Capitol Police to recognize those officers who have gone above and beyond this year and to personally thank all of our officers for the incredible, real-life impact of their heroic and steadfast service.

Dec 10, 2025: ICE wants a hidden mass-deportation hub in a tiny Oregon town. In tents. In a tsunami zone. Even contractors say it violates ICE’s own safety standards.

Say it again for the folks in the back: "The first time the House has voted to overturn a Trump executive order in this term." 🙌

Mark Kelly: "This president, when he says things like 'third world countries,' what is he really saying? I think what he's saying is he doesn't want brown people in our country. And that's disturbing. It's un-American."

The WELLS Act, introduced in Congress, would require hospitals to create a Safe Discharge Labor Plan before releasing patients showing signs of labor. Sparked by Mercedes Wells' traumatic experience of being turned away in labor, this bill aims to ensure no woman is denied care in labor again.👏🏿

Happening now in Minnesota: Protestors were sprayed as ICE launched yet another federal raid in St. Paul. Communities are standing their ground while agents escalate force.

Food insecurity affects families and communities of all sizes and in every corner of our state.

As the cold moves in and with the holidays right around the corner, we must continue to support those who are making sure our neighbors have the food and resources they need.

It's way past time to #EndCitizensUnited. Robert Reich just posted a way that avoids SCOTUS and a Constitutional Amendment.

I just wrote this letter to my State AG. I encourage everyone to write to theirs.

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.

A real President ……….

Sixty-two years ago today, November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. He was shot while riding in an open-top car and died later at Parkland Hospital. The event, which occurred at 12:30 p.m. CST, was a moment of national tragedy.
