ICE is holding a man with both physical and developmental disabilities, who doesn’t understand or speak English, and who is nearly deaf at a detention facility in Washington State. Inhumane doesn’t begin to describe it. We can and must be better. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has blocked the Trump administration from violating due process rights with its reckless implementation of the Alien Enemies Act. This is a positive step — now Trump must abide by the ruling. My full statement:
It is BATSHIT CRAZY that I had to introduce an amendment to prohibit ICE from detaining and deporting U.S. citizens. It’s even more insane that Republicans VOTED AGAINST MY AMENDMENT. They’re betraying their own constituents.
Our immigration policies should not be wielded as union busting, political cudgels. Or as ways to suppress freedom of speech or assembly.
As bad as rest of the market is doing, Tesla is crashing twice as fast.
BREAKING: A federal judge just ordered Trump to return Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, the immigrant with legal status who he deported in "error" to a Salvadorian mega-prison, to the United States by Monday night. This is a big win. Now Trump must comply with the judge's order.

1. On Friday Night, it became apparent that historic LGBTQ+ clinic Whitman-Walker in DC had erased trans care and resources from it's website. The stated reason is harmful to us all. I make my case against it, and other orgs, erasing us for federal dollars. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.
Look, you gormless fucks, we will remember who you threw under the bus and you will account for it. If you choked, the move is to immediately admit your error, undo it, and recommit to the community. Go ahead and give up the federal funds for now. But be part of the community or be out.
We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.” Who needs a gallon of ketchup?

On day one Trump's EO said we were harmful to kids. On day two, it said we were dishonorable and disloyal. On day three, it said we were unAmerican. Transgender people have been a part of this country for centuries. We are not going anywhere. Do not comply with these EOs, they are not law.
There’s going to be an absurd amount of bull crap being flung around in the first 100 days and probably for the next 4 years. If you are in the States, I suggest fact checking where the news is originating from. Maybe sources like CBC etc.
I want to note that most of section 8 does not have an age limit.
Jakob Miles: "I come as a veteran and concerned citizen. Most days, I'm proud to call Montana home. Today is not one of those days. We have neighbors being forced out of their homes with skyrocketing costs of living, people's healthcare... but today we are attacking people for who they are."
Transphobia is a rich man's game. It allows billionaires to position themselves as brave truthtellers challenging the status quo without really risking anything because the group they're demeaning lacks much of any institutional power. It gives them the thrill of martyrdom without any sacrifice.
