Funding ICE and not teachers, healthcare workers, and Medicaid is not making America healthy. Housing undocumented immigrants in squalid conditions in Alligator Alcatraz is not making America healthy.
This is a #PublicHealth issue.

Iโ€™m choked up seeing thisโ€”itโ€™s shameful.

Iranian refugees got snatched by โ€œimmigration agentsโ€ dressed like bounty hunters in West LAโ€™s Sawtelle neighborhood.

Weโ€™re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.

Trump asks US Supreme Court to let him remove Democratic members from labor boards for now Donald Trump's administration asked the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday to let him remove Democratic members from two federal labor boards while legal fights over the Republican president's dismissals of them play out.

The Supreme Court is no longer a brake on authoritarianism โ€” itโ€™s becoming an accomplice. Just like the courts in 1930s Germany, theyโ€™re paving the way for the destruction of democracy, one cynical ruling at a time. Itโ€™s both disgraceful and terrifying.

Reckless cruelty isnโ€™t strength.

Capitulation isnโ€™t courage.

Cultish allegiance isnโ€™t patriotism.

We used to know the difference.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.
