I saw it this morning. It’s good! And I definitely appreciate the decision to keep the national conversation going as other entities are trying to move on.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

This new installment from John Oliver covers so much that people need to know. Guessing you're probably aware, but if not, found this to be eye opening.👇👇

I can’t imagine the pain of having your loved one abducted by ICE in Minnesota during a news cycle celebrating ICE leaving Minnesota.

An idea for your consideration.

Don’t Let ICE Freeze Voting Guest article by Jay Inslee, former governor of Washington State

As Bannon’s plans make clear, Senator Dems need to prohibit ICE from suppressing the vote by placing ICE agents at polling places. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Does someone else have to get hurt in this ICE-created chaos? Will they be coming to your neighborhood next to terrorize your kids?

Congress needs to let DHS wither on the vine. Once the White House is reformed, we can rebuild a real agency whose mission is to protect us, not terrorize us .

Does that seem fair to you?

Grateful that so many MAGA influencers are sharing our reporting that questions ICE’s (now deleted) claim about law enforcement in Colorado. But their headlines suggest they didn’t actually watch the report.

Sharing this from John Oliver because the entire episode covers some pretty serious stuff about ICE. Think more people need to see it.

@kenmartin.bsky.social -- Gutting public schools, and taking taxpayer dollars to fund private schools only the wealthy can afford. Check states where this has happened already. Budget busting. Decimation of public schools.

Taxpayer funded private schools for the wealthy.

More accountability! Thomas Pritzker steps down.

Keep thinking. Why are they buying property, rather than leasing? Is the plan to sell the property at deep discount to privately run prison corporations? Weren't there some heavy donors in that group?

Here’s last night’s story about the Department of Homeland Security, how it’s emboldening ICE, and why it is – for some ungodly reason – allowing Kristi Noem to constantly cosplay as a law enforcement agent. We don’t care what they say, she does not need coast guard fatigues!

We’re back! And a lot has happened since we’ve been away. This week’s main story concerns unrest in Minnesota, murders committed by ICE and CBP agents, and the massive entity overseeing it all: the Department of Homeland Security. Plus, some stuff about Business Shrek – sorry, “Tom Homan.”
