Henry George popularized the brilliant and still excellent idea that society should tax LAND that isn't serving public interests instead of taxing LABOR. Today, 140 years after his mayoral campaign, let us envision and pursue objectives of system-design change that are AT LEAST as ambitious as his.

This Day in Labor History: October 5, 1886. Henry George accepted the nomination of the United Labor Party for the mayor of New York City. Let's talk George's Single Tax and the fight for reform in the Gilded Age!

Proud to have the support of Wayne County Executive Warren Evans. I support investing in local law enforcement, prosecuting violent criminals, and I spent my career in public health helping law enforcement make communities safer.

NYPD keeps insisting it’s not working with ICE in the narrowest scope of not literally participating in kidnappings but then goes silent when people present evidence of ICE using their precincts/parking lots, of NYPD doing crowd control. Big difference in technical and de facto assistance.

From day one in the majority, we're going to take on: 🔍Trump family corruption 🔍Abuses by DHS and ICE 🔍Corporate corruption making everything more expensive 🔍Getting justice for the Epstein survivors We will hold them accountable for everything that they've done.

Horrified by reports of ICE ordering agents in California to “Go after anybody.” They’re not after just anybody. They will continue their assault on immigrants and U.S. citizens with no criminal history because they have gotten away with it before. ICE should be abolished.

ICE launches California immigration crackdown. Newsom calls it ‘campaign of fear’

Dubbed internally as “Operation Safe California,” the Examiner reported, the 45-day enforcement began several days ago in the San Diego area.

Things got more insane just about as soon as I posted this last night. DHS is now arguing that we cannot even put the names of ICE officers in our lawsuit against those officers. Their position is that, if a defendant works for DHS, they cannot be named in a lawsuit. Never seen anything like it.

All this time, while Defendants have refused to identify Does 4 and 5 or respond to Leo’s discovery requests, the six-month statute of limitations on his FTCA claims has nearly expired. So, on October 6, Leo sought Defendants’ consent to file an amended complaint that (1) adds his FTCA claims against the United States and (2) adds the names of Does 1, 2, and 3. These minimal changes are shown in a redline attached to this filing.
Defendants, however, refused to consent to Leo’s amendments because there is not a protective order in place. One of Defendants’ positions with respect to the protective order is that the “full legal names” of all government employees “should be confidential.” (ECF 109, at 2). That position, apparently, means that Defendants even oppose Leo identifying specific officers in his lawsuit against those very officers based on their misconduct in carrying out their public duties. Because Defendants will not consent to Leo’s amendments, Leo has filed this motion for leave.Justice also requires granting Leo leave to name the Doe officers as defendants. Despite DHS’s remarkable position that all government employees’ names are confidential, parties routinely sue government employees by name. In fact, Rule 10(a) “requires a complaint to ‘include the names of all the parties.’” Doe v. Frank, 951 F.2d 320, 322 (11th Cir. 1992) (per curiam) (quoting Fed. R. Civ. P. 10(a)). “Lawsuits are public events.” Id. Rule 10(a) “protects the public’s legitimate interest in knowing all of the facts involved, including the identity of the parties.” Id. Only in an “exceptional case” can a party’s name be withheld from the public. Id. And that bar is even higher for public employees since their employment “diminishes their privacy interests” given “the corresponding public interest in knowing how public employees are performing their jobs.” Stern v. FBI, 737 F.2d 84, 92 (D.C. Cir. 1984);

It's been a struggle for reporters to get DHS to provide the names of officers who violate people's civil rights. Now, in our case against DHS's construction-site raids, the government is arguing in court that its employees names are "confidential" and should not be made public during litigation.

DHS's position on the protective order: "We cannot agree to the striking of this provisions. The phone numbers, physical addresses, full legal names, and email addresses of current and former employees in the federal government ... should be confidential."

A child was in the car when ICE recently shot a man in NYC. To give you a bigger picture of how immigration enforcement is affecting New York children, our story released yesterday showed how ICE arrests of children TRIPLED in NY state in 2026. www.themarshallproject.org/2026/10/08/i...

ICE Has Arrested Twice As Many Children This Year

In total, more than 8,500 kids have been arrested by ICE in Trump’s second term.

The winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2026 is Navi Pillay, a brave extraordinary woman who has served at the International Criminal Court prosecuting genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity. Immediately after being notified she had won, she mocked the orange felon on video. Love her. 💙👊

Update: #US now offically impose new sanctions on the #ICC. The ICC refers in a statement to the sanctions as an "assault on the rule of law and the very foundations of the international legal order". The moral disgrace of the US' actions is unprecedented. www.reuters.com/world/us-imp...
