This is heinous! They’re attempting to take advantage of the Dodgers and their strong connection and history with the Latino community. There’s no investigatory process. It’s purely racial profiling.
ICE agents attempted to enter the parking lot at Dodger Stadium before being denied access on Thursday morning. The Dodgers expect to play their night game in L.A. against the Padres as scheduled.

Gasp! Now Trump wants more from them?! Shocked! I’m shocked I tell you! 😉
This was 100% predictable (and predicted). The big firms that capitulated will cave and do whatever Trump wants. He owns them and will humiliate them for the next 3+ years.
If you are a lawyer at one of these firms, leave now with your dignity.
If you are a law student -- is this what you want?

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

"There's no way, I don't think, any of us can excuse what the president did yesterday. I mean, you have the world watching". Republican response to then President Obama wearing a tan suit Aug. 28, 2014. Republican response to Trump blowing up the economy? Ass-kissing and boot licking.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.
"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥
