When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

‘To not speak out is to be complicit’: LA faith leaders mobilize amid Ice raids Since federal agents descended on the city, faith leaders have rallied congregants, protested and devoted resources to serve immigrants

"At Downey Memorial Christian church on Thursday, officers reportedly arrested a man in the parking lot then pointed a gun at senior pastor Tanya Lopez..."

Federal agents thought they could stay at LA-area hotels. Communities are trying to make sure they can’t When federal agents checked into a Pasadena hotel, they didn't expect hundreds of protesters and a day laborers’ band — now the tactic that kicked them out is spreading across LA.

He Was Born in Philly and They Tried to Deport Him to Jamaica A Florida sheriff ignored proof of Peter Sean Brown’s U.S. citizenship and held him for ICE anyway. A federal court just ruled it was a blatant violation of his Fourth Amendment rights.

"This case highlights the significant threat posed to U.S. citizens by frequent ICE errors, which are exacerbated when local law enforcement agencies participate in immigration enforcement...”

Masked Feds Arrest New York City Mayoral Candidate Brad Lander The city's comptroller, a candidate for mayor, was standing up for a New Yorker after a court date and demanded to see a warrant when he was arrested.

Masked federal agents handcuffed and detained yet another Democratic lawmaker, this time in New York City.

Today in Boston.

Over a million people turned out.

Even the drone couldn't get it all.

Our military deserves better than this empty charade. Yikes. The tank squeaking over silence is incredible.

Checking in on “Yes Kings”

The fake front page of the Boston Globe from 2016, including headlines that read: Deportations to begin: President Trump calls for tripling of ice force, riots continue. Curfew is extended in multiple cities Markets sink as trade war looms

Do people remember that before the election in 2016, the Boston Globe printed a fake front page detailing the absurdist horrors of a Trump administration?

And that the current front pages have normalized what was once unthinkable?

Look at this. It’s the regular news now.

Maddow: I also feel like there’s not very much about that that I don’t understand. Like, it’s the same everywhere. This is blond Berlusconi, you know what I mean? This is inarticulate Viktor Orbán, right? These guys are all the same. The authoritarian playbook is the same everywhere

My #soulsofmischief photo is in this year's Abbey Road Music Photography Accelerator Exhibition at B:Eats, Symphony Hall!

The most important story of our time is not what Donald Trump wants to do, but what the people of this country allow him to do.

This was a great conversation — thank you Stacey!

Two brown bunnies cuddle on a patterned rug by a wall.

This is what not giving up looks like.

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

@maddow.msnbc.com
I truly hope you stay on MSNBC Monday through Friday after the first 100. America needs you more than ever! ♥️

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

What the Venezuelans Deported to El Salvador Experienced Exclusive photos of the arrival of Venezuelan detainees deported from the U.S.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

Good work everyone

Walz: I think they hate public education because it’s easier to run an authoritarian government if you don’t have a population that knows.

MUST-WATCH: This is the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil from the perspective of his wife, who is 8 months pregnant.

This is federal agents in plain clothes dragging a man from his home as punishment for his speech.
