Here’s what courage looks like.

Billionaire philanthropist Mike Fernandez pulls $1M pledge from @fiu.bsky.social after President Jeanette Nunez raised tuition 250% on undocumented students.

“I’d rather go bankrupt than betray children.”

Bravo, Mr. Fernandez!

Genuinely one of the saddest photos.
THEY F*CKING TOOK THE ICE CREAM MAN! The photo says it all.
Masked ICE goons grabbed Enrique Lozano in front of a Culver City, CA church. A Community Coalition helped the family identify the abandoned cart, locate his belongings. For 20 years, loved in the community. "Hardened criminals" - my ass.

Look, if AI wasn’t invented so we could animate this image and flood the internet with videos that emotionally crush this cruel, arrogant little man, then I’m just not sure what the point of it is.

Taking $ meant to help the population and using it for mass incarceration is kind of the essence of authoritarian priorities and goals.
Scoop: Florida is building a detention facility for migrants nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” in the Everglades designed to help the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.

DHS will help pay for the detention facility with money from FEMA.

They’re lying about Medicaid cuts.

They’re lying about the deficit increase.

They’re lying about what they accomplished in Iran.

They lie about everything.

It is just a nonstop torrent of lies intended to flood the zone with propaganda.

A 21-year-old Norwegian man named Mads Mikkelsen was denied entry to the US after border agents at Newark Airport found a meme depicting Vice President J.D. Vance on his phone. He claims he was detained, strip-searched, and deported, with the meme being one of the images that triggered the incident.

Starting July 7, 2025, the National Archives at College Park will shut its doors to the public. Only those with “legitimate business” can enter. A federal records facility—closed to the very public it’s supposed to serve? This should raise eyebrows. It smells BAD.

Trump revoked Biden’s executive order that pushed federal agencies to help register voters. Advocates say the move erases progress and sets back voter registration efforts across the country.

ICE came to house dressed up like Amazon delivery driver—then detained Iranian man's daughter.

"They came for retribution. I am from Iran," cries the father. "So cruel!"

Witness said: "Father wouldn't come out for 40 minutes, they kept saying we're going to break the window."

Pay attention: Senate Republicans are trying to ram through extreme anti-abortion judges right under our noses.

Their goal? A nationwide abortion ban.

I’ll keep fighting back against nominees that want to take away our freedoms.

We are normalizing Trump taking control of the military and law enforcement as his private militia against any and all perceived enemies and critics. We have tanks rolling down the streets of DC for a military parade.

But...Biden's age.
