We can’t pay air traffic controllers during the shutdown, making us less safe, but we can send $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

They erased us from the textbooks. I’m putting us back in the story.

They buried our truth and hoped we’d stay silent.

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

Antifa expert at Rutgers University says he is moving to Spain because of death threats An expert on anti-fascist groups who teaches at New Jersey’s flagship state university is moving his family overseas.

Are we great yet?

Mark Bray, a Rutgers University professor and expert on anti-fascist groups, is fleeing to Spain with his family due to death threats that stem from a campaign by Turning Point USA and other conservative groups to get him fired, falsely labeling him as an antifa member.

Good job. I hope that you and your family are safely on the way to Spain by now -- and that you will be able to return to this country soon. (Once the fascists lose power.)

one way you could describe lincoln's approach is of never getting ahead of the public on its attitudes, but holding an immovable set of principles on where the country ought to be and where he hopes to lead it

Man wrongfully deported to CECOT: The conditions were awful. We slept in a metal can. There were 2 water troughs with pipes that carried waste. And we had to basically eat on top of them. The water that we used for bathing was the same water for drinking. We endured physical and psychological abuse
