I'm a human rights lawyer. I've worked on countless immigration, asylum, & refugee cases. As the fascist in chief sends ICE and the military to target immigrants in Chicago, here are tangible steps you can take to protect your immigrant neighbors. (No paywall)
As the fascist in chief violates the Constitution to use the military to wage war on Americans—a reminder that The Hill published this propaganda about Harris & it is still up. Corporate media is complicit in the rise of American fascism. Indefensible. Support independent voices committed to actual justice, and stop relying on corporate sycophants:
Just got done protesting ICE fascists at the Broadview location at 1930 Beach St. The fascists were so frightened that they changed the timings of when they traffick people so that they wouldn’t have to face us. When a few ICE fascists did show up, they covered their faces just as you would expect out of an evil army. Posting full analysis at soon.
Understand this fact—Trump isn’t just anti-science or anti-vaccine—He’s something far worse: Pro Structural Eugenics. Once you realize his every policy is ingrained in Structural Eugenics, you’ll see the Goal is mass death of Black, brown, & low income people.
Trump DOJ is looking at ways to ban trans Americans from owning guns. Since 2018: •4 trans shooters means 2A is null & void •4193 NON-trans shooters means 2A needs expansion Here's a better idea: Solo men commit 94.6% of all mass shootings. Let's ban firearms from solo men & see how it goes.
People don’t just want financial literacy, they need a sustainable living wage. People don’t just want subsidized housing and food stamps, they need housing and food as human rights. People don’t just want lower health care costs, they need their tax dollars to guarantee healthcare access. People don’t need lectures on how to navigate an exploitative system, they demand an affordable system that caters to them, not to billionaires. Period.
Trump issued an Executive Order to "remove divisive anti-American content" from museums, & now US Holocaust Museum is "temporarily" removing an exhibit on how the US Government rejected Jewish refugees from escaping Nazi genocide. (Oh, and remember, the Govt gladly gave visas to actual literal Nazis). But yeah, I'm sure this is all a coincidence and not fascism whitewashing one of the most cruel policies of American history that is now being revived against refugees from Afghanistan and Gaza.
A reminder that Red states have a 40% higher murder rate than do Blue states, so if Trump *actually* wanted to pretend he was protecting Americans he’d have the National Guard occupy Red states not Blue states. And if you claim “Red states are only more violent because of Blue cities,” then you’ll have to explain why Blue cities in Blue states don’t make them even more violent. Stop sanitizing military occupation. Start rejecting Trump’s fascist federal government takeover of our lives.
A Florida court detained a US Citizen of Latino ethnicity for being an "illegal immigrant." He showed the court proof of citizenship. The court agreed he's a Citizen—but held him in jail anyway. As a human rights lawyer, I criticized the ruling online as unjust. For my online critique, a Florida Chief judge filed a formal bar complaint to try to strip me of my law license. I've had to spend nearly $10,000 in fees to fight back:
Something historic is happening—and no surprise—corporate media is ignoring it. Right now, boats representing activists from 44 different countries are setting sail toward Gaza as part of the Global Sumud Flotilla—the largest civilian maritime mission ever launched to break Israel’s illegal blockade. It is a global, nonviolent response to the genocide of the Palestinian people. Here's how you can get involved:
