BREAKING: Judge Talwani denies DOJ’s request for a stay of her TRO pending appeal.

In addition to noting that the TRO is not appealable, she adds, “[C]ontrary to Defendants’ cynical interpretation, the Supreme Court has not endorsed the view that any challenge to the Final Rule is now too late.”
BREAKING: Federal judge blocks Trump administration’s new U.S. Postal Service rule setting new restrictions for mail ballots.

We traveled to DC for the 63rd anniversary of the 1963 March in Washington where MLK, Jr shared his dream for the future of this country. While much has been gained, we still have far to travel yet to meet the dream he & the Freedom Fighters worked so hard to secure. #marchonwashington

Kind of surprised not a single outlet wanted this. Maybe the interest is gone and this is just what America is now.

Lots of photographers asking me about southwest Florida though!

Fun fact — and reminder: For all their focus on “officer safety” and arguments about aggressive tactics being necessary, no ICE officer has ever been killed in the line of duty.

It is more deadly in the US to be an elementary school student than an ICE officer.
New: ICE plans to spend millions of dollars on Boston Dynamics dog robots. ICE says this is to improve "officer safety." The robots can open doors, pick up objects, have 360 cameras, infrared vision, etc. Boston Dynamics didn't respond to question on its stance on ICE www.404media.co/ice-plans-to...

Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer

Google Maps has now capitulated to Donald Trump and changed the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America.

I've been irate at how little national coverage the killings of four Black men in Memphis by federal agents have gotten -- and even how little in Tennessee. The root? State lawmakers who wholeheartedly approve of the occupation of Memphis.

A second man, Edwin Lopez-Cornejo, has died at Delaney Hall, the inhumane ICE detention center run by private prison contractor GEO Group.

GEO Group’s profits have soared by over 700% since Trump has been back in office.

Imagine profiting from death and suffering. Deplorable.

They're ripping apart families, stealing children away from their parents & parents away from their children.

Don't become numb to it.
