Remember all: Trump set up a commission of his own that was paid by us the taxpayers to find voter fraud and his own commission found zero. The SAVE ACT is a bill that addresses nothing.

Louisiana’s new TIGER algorithm is a modern travesty, denying parole to rehabilitated inmates like Calvin Alexander. A nearly blind 70-year-old in a wheelchair, Calvin turned his life around—only to be labeled “moderate risk” & stripped of hope.

A subtle reminder.

We are probably about to bomb the shit out of Iran.

I do know we have a lot going on.

Garcia v. Team evil.

Also, losing our ass's financially.

But yea, we should become intentionally aware of this Iran situation.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

SCOTUS has ruled the Trump administration can deport immigrants under the Alien Enemies Act

The Good-Immigrants are allowed judicial review

The Bad-They can be deported immediately

The Ugly-For years conservatives argued SCOTUS has no “shadow docket”. Justice Jackson brutally exposed this lie

Murphy: "If we continue to observe norms, if we continue to engage in business as usual, this democracy could be gone. I don't think we have a year to save American democracy. I think the way the president is acting ... puts out democracy at immediate risk."

They're trying to deport my colleague from the med school and holding her without counsel. She was coming back from a visit to her family. If there are ways to help I'll let you know. www.providencejournal.com/story/news/l...
She saw family in Lebanon. Now this Brown Medicine doctor is being held at Logan for deportation.
Dr. Rasha Alawieh flew into Logan Airport Thursday after visiting family in Lebanon. She's being detained now at Logan without legal counsel.

1/7 Leonard Leo isn’t just a behind-the-scenes figure—he’s the architect of the right-wing judicial coup that has dismantled democracy, civil rights, & separation of church & state. If you don’t know his name, that’s by design. Let’s talk about him. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:

“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

This should terrify every person in this country. The use of machine learning systems to approximate an individuals views on war and then, if they are here lawfully on a visa, tag them for deportation is about as sci-fi dystopian as it gets.

BREAKING: Hundreds of Jews and allies have taken over Trump Tower chanting “We want justice, you say how. Bring Mahmoud home now!” and “Fight Nazis, not students.”

The civil disobedience is spawned by the ICE arrest of Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil.
