Newark Mayor Ras Baraka:
ICE agents, during a warrantless raid, detained undocumented residents as well as citizens.
“One of the detainees is a U.S. military veteran who suffered the indignity of having the legitimacy of his military documentation questioned.”

Trump’s immigration raids are already sweeping up U.S. citizens.
This is dangerous, unconstitutional, and harmful to the American economy.

In the end it's about endless chaos while the ruling class drains the treasury. If they can defund an agency to prove it's doesn't work, imagine how that goes when you defund a nation.
President Trump nominated the most unqualified cabinet in American history.
His anti-DEI crusade is a smokescreen to turn Americans against each other while his billionaire backers take over the government and install their own political loyalists.

New: A US judge has temporarily blocked Trump's birthright citizenship order, calling it "blatantly unconstitutional"
My thoughts are with the 7 San Antonio Police Officers who were shot while responding to a call in the Stone Oak neighborhood last night. I am relieved to hear none of the injuries are life-threatening & am praying for a quick recovery for all. Violence against our first responders is unacceptable.
I’m glad to try to help. Are you in San Antonio? Please call my office at 210-349-8216.

The insurrectionist who was rearrested on weapons charges one day after he was freed by convicted felon Donald Trump had a past conviction for domestic violence via strangulation. But immigrants are the actual public safety threats, right? people.com/pardoned-jan...

Gee what should we all call it when a president gets rid of an Executive Order that *de*segregated federal contracting?
President Trump just let more than 1,500 violent criminals loose on our streets.
On January 6, 2021, Daniel Rodriguez tased a police officer until he had a heart attack.
Watch the video below to see the January 6 rioters that Republican politicians are calling "patriots."

NEW: Judge CHUTKAN is now weighing in on Trump's mass dismissal of Jan. 6 cases, saying it "cannot whitewash the blood, feces, and terror that the mob left in its wake." www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

Steven Cappuccio violently beat Officer Hodges while he was stuck in a door.
DJ Rodriguez attacked Officer Fanone and repeatedly shocked him in the neck with a taser.
David Dempsey stomped on an officer's head and beat them with a flagpole.
All pardoned by Trump. Disgraceful.

A number of neo-Nazis were among the J6 rioters pardoned by President Trump tonight, including Anthime Gionet, the livestreamer known as "Baked Alaska, and Christian Secor, a former UCLA student who immediately called for the release of multiple racist killers he described as "political prisoners."

Dr. King faced hatred, but he never accepted it - and we cannot either. As we face troubled times, we cannot surrender as we carry on his dream. 2/
The skies were dark today but our spirits were full of light as we celebrated the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther Ling Jr. this morning. 1/
