JD Vance owns a company that buys American real estate and sells it to foreign investors. They specifically target Americans in crisis to buy their property for less than it is worth.

Red State Workers Could Lose Out on Disability Benefits as Trump Administration Rewrites Eligibility Rules Planned changes to Social Security’s disability program could leave hundreds of thousands of older blue-collar workers ineligible for aid. These changes would fall disproportionately on some of Presid...

The states with the highest proportion of people relying on disability benefits are West Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama β€” all states that lack their own aid programs for workers to turn to amid federal cuts.

I'm looking to speak to people who rely on SNAP about what this past week has been like. If that's you, please reach out, or pass along to others. Can be anonymous.

The same people who think buying junk food with SNAP benefits is β€œabusing the system” are fine with wealthy parents using vouchers to send their kids to private schools.

Yes, they’re using the shutdown to turn off SNAP benefits.

No, they don’t have to.

β€œThe 3.5% rule is a concept in political science that states that when 3.5% of the population of a country protest nonviolently against a government, that government is likely to fall from power.”

It’s weird how the β€œyoung” Republicans are actually full-grown men and JD Vance treats them as children who shouldn’t face consequences for their racism, misogyny, or xenophobia.

But pregnant 12-year-old little girls are treated as adults and must literally bear the consequences of rape and incest.

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

May I use a LEARNS voucher for cotillion fees? Why yes, you may! - Arkansas Times Perhaps it's gauche to point out that letting private school and homeschool families spend public education dollars on cotillion fees gives the β€œschool choice” game away entirely.

Private & homeschool kids who need to learn how to waltz like they're in 18th century Vienna can now get the state of Arkansas to pay for their dance moves. Public school kids will just have to pick up their cotillion skills in a back alley.

The Government is Violating Mr. Abrego's Due Process Rights. Again. Mr. Abrego's attorneys have revealed that the government has threatened him with deportation to Uganda if he doesn't plead guilty to the two felony counts against him.

NEW: The government has offered Mr. Abrego deportation to Costa Rica if he pleads guilty, and threatened deportation Uganda if he does not. According to his lawyers in a new filing, that violates his 5th Amendment due process rights. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-govern...

Illinois is launching a first-of-its-kind legal hotline for LGBTQ+ individuals β€” Illinois Pride Connect.

As the only state in the nation that will provide free legal advice to protect the LGBTQ+ community, we'll help fight ignorance with information and cruelty with compassion.

The only thing that happened between Thursday-Costa Rica-and Friday-Uganda-
was Mr. Abrego's exercise of his legal entitlement to release under the Bail Reform Act and the
Fifth Amendment. See United States v. Salerno, 481 U.S. 739, 755 (1987). Indeed, the government has done more than just offer these two options in isolation. On Friday evening, the government informed Mr. Abrego that he has until first thing Monday morning precisely when he must report
to ICE's Baltimore Field Office-to accept a plea in exchange for deportation to Costa Rica, or
else that offer will be off the table forever. There can be only one interpretation of these events:
the DOJ, DHS, and ICE are using their collective powers to force Mr. Abrego to choose between a guilty plea followed by relative safety, or rendition to Uganda, where his safety and liberty would
be under threat.
Mr. Abrego has previously explained that this case was part of a larger strategy to retaliate
caninet him for cholloncina lic /11oacl donnection to D1 Golundo (CooNi+

NEW: Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s defense team says that the government is attempting to coerce him to plead guilty to his criminal charges.

Per filing, the government promised to deport him to Costa Rica if he pleads guilty β€” and is now threatening to remove him to Uganda if he doesn’t accept the deal.

This is extreme. Variations of this (threatening defendants with dramatically harsher punishment if they don’t plea) is extremely common across all prosecution: how the system cycles people thru plea deals constantly.

I’ll believe the ICE raids are less racist when they perp walk every employer who hired them out along with the workers.

It’s not about crime, it’s about race. ICE is a fascist organization.
