This is disgusting and dehumanizing. Our Haitian neighbors are beloved in Ohio and they deserve to be treated with respect. Shame on this Administration.
ICE begins outfitting Haitian immigrants with ankle monitors, attorneys say
Haitian immigrants in Ohio with temporary protected status are being called to ICE offices for check-ins after federal officials said their protections had ended.

My son worked for one of those canvassing agencies last election cycle. Millions spent on these companies reporting stats out of Detroit and the reported numbers were garbage. Yes they employed the people to knock on doors but the actual workers didn’t really do what they said they were.

Her etc. You can jump in my mentions but it doesn't change human nature. Some folks are pissed and even though she bowed out in grace, they won't. I appreciate her doing that but know people. Wish you the best in that endeavor because that race was nasty and it will take a special kind of person
Some things are bigger than the obvious like Bush being thrashed in Missouri. Some voters get turned off with a daily dose of negativity and not enough talk about their pockets. He will need to fix his platform to appeal to Stevens voters watched his surrogates chase the woman down and harassed
Regardless of how one feels, Stevens got thrashed all across social media and wasn't hyped up and damn near won. Make the excuses you want to make and that's fine but that's a red flag for folks who support AES. No, it wasn't AIPAC that made this race close.

I’m sorry, but there’s just no affirmative case for this company to exist. I get it, groups have used and still use Facebook to organize, etc, but the inherent terribleness of this organization necessitates closing it down completely.
WIRED@wired.com · 4h agoOver the last nine months, Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta has run dozens of paid ads that include explicit AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and images of minors alongside sexually suggestive statements, according to details of the ads shared with WIRED.
some coverage connected Blanche's comment to the Comstock Act but tbh and I say this as that Comstock girl: I don't believe the thinking is that even that clear on his part, and I think what he's gesturing at could be something worse
I wrote about how weird and bad it is to have a future AG going around claiming he'll make Dobbs "permanent in every single state"—unless he understands Dobbs to be a national abortion ban, and thinks his job is to force states to comply
Todd Blanche Is Claiming That He Can Ban Abortion In Any State
As he fights to be confirmed as attorney general, Blanche is trying to appease Christian-right groups with wild legal theories about restricting abortion.

With reports that the Administration is working to dismantle Head Start, this conversation couldn't be more timely. Mississippi's kids are always worth standing up for. #MississippiMatters
Today's special edition of Mississippi Matters Monday comes from Batesville, where I had a wonderful conversation with Eloise McClinton, the Executive Director of Mississippi Head Start, about why every child deserves a strong start.
Remember when Cindy Hyde-Smith told us to just pick a different protein when beef prices were skyrocketing? Looks like Mississippi is ready for a different kind of senator this November — one that won’t chicken out when families are struggling.
Sixty-one years after the Voting Rights Act became law, the fight to protect our freedom to vote continues. Join me this Thursday, August 6, in Horn Lake for a community conversation about protecting voting rights and strengthening our democracy. I hope you'll be part of it.
Sixty-two years ago today, the FBI uncovered the bodies of James Chaney, Andrew Goodman & Michael Schwerner in Neshoba County. We honor their courage by refusing to take that freedom for granted & recognizing our responsibility to protect our right to vote & ensure every voice is heard.
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
Do you want to win a general election with the same graciousness Haley Stevens just displayed endorsing El-Sayed or do you just want to be an asshole on the Internet? Maybe ask them and listen to them first.
Lordt. Cori Bush’s paycheck as a Legislator came from a genocidal “state”🙄 This country (US) is still enacting genocide HERE … Let’s not do the “actual Democrat” thing…eat the L and keep it moving
How many Americans have Dual Citizenship? Based on a US population of over 340 million as of 2026, this suggests potentially over 30 million Americans may have citizenship in another country. What's your point?

El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"
Meanwhile, I met @hillaryscholten.bsky.social in person for the first time at @haleyformi.bsky.social's election night party
Update: With another batch from Wayne County, it’s down to 16,000 votes (1.1%).
Just woke up to learn that it’s still too close to call! NBC called it for Abdul but no one else has yet. Difference as of now: 19,493 or 1.28%.
