We were just denied entrance to the Broadview ICE facility in Illinois.

WHAT is the Trump Administration hiding?

I think we have enough info to piece it together:
1-Trump threatened mass firings
2-The lawyers told him he can't
3-He risked looking weak
4-He decided to do the firings anyway

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds β€”Β  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

We’re eight days away from #NoKings Day, and over 2,500 protests planned in all 50 states and across the world. October 18 is going to be the biggest day of nonviolent protest in US history β€” because Courage is contagious.

this is an absolutely insane news conference for the Attorney General of the United States to be participating in.

(note how Benny Johnson describes the Annunciation shooting as an act of political violence, which is a lie)

Just making up whatever they need to create a false reality that justifies the coming brutality.

The Virginia Senate just told UVA it’s not getting state funding if it accepts the compact since UVA exists to serve Virginia, its residents, & their interestsβ€”not be a tool of the federal govt.

Gaza Cease-Fire Begins, Israel Says, as Thousands Return to the North

This is the number that made Israel feel better.

267 Palestinians killed for 1 hostage.

That’s 67,000 people, 1/3 of them children. The Israeli people should be ashamed of themselves.

Gifted article, no paywall.

When Anti-antifa means Pro-Nazi (video) Notes from a Presidential "Roundtable"

Anti-fascists, or Antifa, are the folks who believed in democracy & the rule of law in the Weimar Republic, the ones who tried to stop Hitler’s Nazi party. Our government is saying these anti-fascists were the bad guys. In Weimar, Antifa failed & Nazi’s won. We must not fail. Make your voice heard.

It's obvious that we should now be referring to them as the Trumpstein files.

β€œSo now we have families that are in lodging for an indefinite amount of time β€” lodging that they may not be able to afford because they’re not getting a paycheck next week,” she said. The suspension extends to soldiers stationed overseas.

Highly recommend looking up "Filial responsibility laws" aka "filial support laws". If/when Medicaid isn't there to pay for nursing care... states may enforce these laws to compel adult children to pay.

I cannot stress enough how much I love this stuff and hope it spreads. Noise disruption and projections are both underused and I hope we keep changing that.

Medicaid Spending for Undocumented Immigrants This cross-sectional analysis examines emergency Medicaid spending relative to total Medicaid expenditures and identifies state factors associated with variation in spending.

β€œThese results suggest that cuts to emergency Medicaid will produce minimal overall cost savings and will disproportionately harm states with large undocumented populations.”

These are people being labeled as terrorists by a state apparatus which has declared war on them and called for violence against them.

Please be clear that is what’s happening.

I need yall to understand this is as big of an escalation as most we’ve seen. Going to put it as plainly as I can. In addition to trying to scare people awayβ€”They are trying to get grandmas and children run down with cars and shot. We are in a civil war. It was never going to look like the last one.

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."
