L.A. Unveils Cash Aid Program For Families Affected by ICE Raids: 'We Are a Proud City of Immigrants' Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has announced a new initiative to provide direct cash assistance to families impacted by recent federal immigration raids.

L.A. Unveils Cash Aid Program For Families Affected by ICE Raids: We Are a Proud City of Immigrants

Mayor Karen Bass also signed an executive directive instructing all city departments to enhance their training and protocols to uphold Los Angeles' sanctuary policy www.latintimes.com/l-unveils-ca...

I heard a news story today in which a politician was saying, "they're giving your tax dollars to people who hate you."

I thought that's the game: set us up against each other, or against foreigners needing aid, or immigrants looking for jobs, and tell us "they hate you!" So we'll hate them back.

ICE arrests have surged sixfold in just one month. This isn’t just about immigrants—it’s about defending the rule of law itself. With $50 million already allocated for legal aid, the City and State must act now to deliver this vital support to New Yorkers.

Denying immigrants in custody food, water, bedding, showers, soap, toothbrushes, medical care, access to legal aid has been how ICE and CBP has operated for years.

They *train* their employees to find immigrants disgusting by keeping the immigrants sick, smelly, needy, complaining, crying, etc.

Another CA municipality providing aid to immigrants:

The Sacramento County, California Board of Supervisors announced $50,000 for expanding emergency immigrant legal services

In Michigan, community members honored Lewis’ legacy by organizing a mutual aid effort and collecting food for immigrant families in the area. “He talked about #GoodTrouble — the food drive is making good trouble because we're trying to disrupt the attack on immigrants by feeding families.” 👇🏽

After more than three decades in the U.S., Sharon Lee said her son's current predicament has saddened and surprised her. "I immigrated here to the States - I thought I understood it was a country of equal rights where the Constitution applies equally," she said. She still believes the U.S. is a country of opportunity and second chances. But she said vulnerable immigrants must learn about immigration law to protect themselves. In her son's case, that was the hotline at the National Korean American Service and Education Consortium, an advocacy group for Koreans and Korean Americans.

“Immigrants must learn about immigration law to protect themselves”

Or maybe we should ally ourselves with other immigrant communities for mutual aid and protection and to protest and vote out this fascist regime? 🤔

Trump team keeps finding exciting new ways to weaponize FEMA There might be a new opportunity for states to apply for some Federal Emergency Management Agency funding.� In a recent announcement , FEMA said that it will be distributing $608 million in grant ...

By funneling FEMA disaster grants into migrant prisons like Alligator Auschwitz, the administration has turned emergency aid into a partisan weapon, rewarding red states willing to lock up immigrants while gutting capacity for disaster response.

What we know about US air strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites The sites targeted include a uranium enrichment facility at Fordo.

bbc.com/news/article...

Pretty amazing that a former president will sit quietly as one of his successors orders US troops into American cities and ships innocent people off to concentration camps—but feels compelled to speak up when a fellow HR nightmare is at risk of losing to another member of the same party.

Today’s GOP doesn’t want votes, it wants power. That’s why they gerrymander, purge voters, and pack courts. It’s not about democracy—it’s about dominance. If we don’t call it what it is—minority rule enforced by fear—we’re sleepwalking into tyranny.
