I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Rateeba. Rateeba is a widow and the mother of Mohammad, Ahmed and Maha. She is worried about their education- The boys have had to stop their studies and Maha is trying to finish her last year of high school. They are struggling to survive.

The Trump Administration Is Turning Local Police Into ICE Agents Read more here.

The 287(g) program enables ICE to partner with state and local police for immigration enforcement.

However, the agreement generates community distrust and, most importantly, feeds into a racist and unaccountable deportation machine.

DHS took 5 days to fund Texas flooding hotline, federal records show Funding for FEMA's disaster survivor hotline lapsed the day after the Texas floods, federal records show. It took DHS Secretary Kristi Noem five days to approve more money.

"In the week after floods tore through Texas, most survivors were unable to get through to a federal aid hotline because the DHS let funding lapse, according to publicly available contract records and internal FEMA call center logs obtained by NPR."

What Trump's New Tariffs Mean for Grocery Prices Now Tariffs up to 50% are hitting imports like beef, wine, and coffee with sharp price hikes this fall.

Took my mom shopping yesterday at Aldi and prices are ‴️ from last week:

Wine costs $2 more per bottle, 12 oz of ground coffee is up $2.20, eggs are hovering around $4 a dozen and for a decent size chuck roast the price was a whopping $27!

It’s about to get worse.

I can't believe we're still talking about this. You know what this is? A discussion about WHAT A TARIFF IS. My god we can't even get them to admit what it is. My brain hurts.

The next part of the plan to steal the midterms and/or the 2028 election - an attempt to do a mid-decade census to take seats and electoral votes away from blue states. I knew this was coming.

I.C.E. is now a recruitment center for the worst of society. It’s also a literal Army he is building to prevent his removal from office. Recruiting the National Guard to assist ICE? Don’t be fooled.
