1. As Chris notes, in addition to journalist plaintiffs in here, there's a religious plaintiff: Rev. David Black, a Presbyterian minister who was filmed being shot by federal agents with what appeared to be pepper balls while praying outside the Broadview ICE office.

I just spoke with that pastor…

It’s time—it was time, years and years ago—to stop quoting the police for their account of events, esp those involving them, immediately after said event.

“ICE officers shot a man. ICE provided a comment, but will refrain from reporting it until we have more information and confirmation.”

ICE lies

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

Greta Thunberg in Greece: "I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuse in detention. Believe me, but that is not the story. Israel is intensifying genocide and mass extermination with genocidal intentions, trying to erase an entire population before our eyes."

Greta Thunberg making a very good case here for us all to "use our privilege and platforms to take a stance" against genocide.

Military Leaders Seriously Alarmed by Hegseth’s New Defense Strategy It’s not just about Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s speech to military leaders—there’s a bigger problem with the Pentagon’s new direction.

Even a Trump loyalist has voiced his displeasure with some of Hegseth’s decisions, particularly his rollout of Trump’s “America First, Peace Through Strength” National Defense Strategy.

The initial draft for the strategy was met with widespread disapproval, which is rare. trib.al/hT1UWe3

I’ve heard plenty about Mamdani’s policies. Free bus fare? Lowered rent hikes for stabilized apartments.Preschool. Why are you shilling for corrupt and ineffective dem leadership?

The latest post from the President of the United States is an AI video of Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, which includes statements Schumer never made and features Hakeem Jeffries in a sombrero and fake mustache with mariachi music in the background.

Trump posted this racist AI video of Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer to his social media platform. The MAGA cult will believe that it's real without question.

It looks like we need military protection from ICE!

The Epstein scandal is a national shame, and Republicans are complicit in the cover-up.

They're more interested in safeguarding Trump's reputation than providing justice for survivors.

As a Texan whose family members lost their home in the recent flooding & are still struggling to clear debris & begin to rebuild, I’d like Gov Abbott to explain why our National Guard paid by our Texas taxpayers are being sent to Chicago instead of helping residents here???

Texas loaded busses with desperate migrants and dropped them off in Chicago like trash in the middle of winter. We welcomed them into our communities. Now Texas is sending its National Guard to terrorize them on our streets. In our neighborhoods. What the fuck.
