Fully illegal given the temporary restraining order on "roving patrols," affirmed by the 9th Circuit just last week
ICE raided the Westlake Home Depot in Los Angeles this morning. LATU organizers snapped some photos from the raid—one sticks out: ICE agents rolling up in a Penske rental truck.
Wonder where they got the idea😬
Trying to avoid detection? Is this policy now? Are they now doing roving gangs in this?

In my book, I show that an eviction can ruin someone's life *even if it never happens.* A mere eviction FILING—even one dismissed in court—can destroy your credit and lock you out of housing for years.
That's why I say people aren't "falling" into homelessness. They're being pushed.

NEW: Jasmin Belanger believed the deal was simple: pay off what she owed, and her landlord would let her keep her housing.

Here's the truth about tax cuts for the rich.

You’ve seen this movie before: Maybe Reagan guessed, Bush hoped, and Trump tried—but tax cuts never paid for themselves. Given the mountain of evidence, claiming once again that "tax cuts will pay for themselves" is no longer ideologically motivated optimism.
