Emmanuel Damas died in ICE custody after ICE failed to treat a tooth issue that turned into pneumonia.
ICE didn't even keep his family updated.
The Trump admin's cruelty knows no bounds.
I'm pressing with Senator Markey and Rep. Pressley to hold ICE accountable.
This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things I’ve ever seen from the United States government.

Thinking back on how George W. Bush reacted to Cindy Sheehan.
“Part of my duty as the president is to meet those who have lost a loved one. I sympathise with Mrs. Sheehan. She feels strongly about her position. She has every right in the world to say what she believes. This is America.”
“How does destroying and discrediting educational institutions fight antisemitism?”
From testimony in the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights hearing on the Trump admin's response to campus antisemitism.

If you dig into the data, reports @arnorosenfeld.bsky.social, you'll see "nearly half of the Jews who don’t identify as either Zionist or anti-Zionist," who make up 56% of the total, "think Israel committed genocide against the Palestinians" and is guilty of apartheid.

"And if they have been primed to believe that Israel forced America’s hand, some will leap from “Israel” to “the Jews.”"
And high profile Jewish orgs evangelizing the narrative equating Zionism with Judaism is certainly building out quite the fucking launchpad for that leap.
I'm not a call-your-senator guy--I think we're pretty far past that being useful--but please, if you understand the importance of these forests, use the links in the article to object to this decision. Defending these places is a cause I'd probably die for, and would definitely [redacted] for.

I hate my fascist president and would also not enjoy the JFK building getting blown up downtown because it has federal offices in it.
I hate my fascist government and don’t want my local elementary school obliterated.
This is not hard to understand if you view Iranians as actual people.
ICE was very active in Minneapolis today, they kidnapped multiple people. ICE didn't leave, the media has moved on but we are still under federal occupation.

This reckless aggression from the US and Israel will make the entire world less safe.

While headlines rightly focus on illegal strikes on Iran, Hegseth launches an indirect attack closer to home banning troops from top schools, including MIT & Harvard: “anti-American” because they let students protest
Another attempt to suffocate our economy, and dissent

A person cross country skiing on a snow covered street
Snow storms always remind me: cities aren't loud; cars are loud.
Things are so eerily quiet without cars.
ICE is treating Yari’s leukemia with Advil instead of appropriate medication.
They have held her in detention for almost a year.
This reign of terror must end.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported.
He finally died.
I am so angry.

When SCOTUS green lights unlimited contributions from Billionaires as it did in the Citizens United decision, nothing checks the "quid pro quo for improper commitments from the candidate." Pay to Play is alive and well and it's hurting our region again.

ICE killed a US citizen last March. Their involvement wasn’t reported until now.
How many more stories have yet to be revealed?
People have been disappeared from MA jails for years. This isn't new.
It's just happening more often to more categories of people.
When presumed-innocent people are kidnapped by ICE after loved ones post bail, state court judges issue warrants for "failure to apoear" -- that is also violence.

Why does it make sense for unaccountable individuals or self-interested closed entities to have more allocative power than entire societies? Why can economists not understand this basic fucking fundamental of the study of economies.

Trump isn’t known for his restraint. But recently, the mask has slipped off:
“They rigged the second election.”
“If the elections are honest.”
“These people were brought to our country to vote.”
The firehose of misinformation shows he does not view elections as the foundation of democracy.
