according to an immigration attorney representing several arrested workers, ICE agents chose to arrest the Korean workers to fulfill the quota of 3,000 daily immigrant arrests set by Stephen Miller www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...

Stephen Miller’s Quota Likely Drove Korean Arrests In Immigration Raid
When ICE agents arrested over 300 Korean workers at a Georgia battery plant, a daily immigrant arrest quota was likely on their minds.

Saif Musallet was a 21 year old who lived in Tampa, Florida and worked at an ice cream shop with his father. He was visiting family in the occupied West Bank. Friday, Saif was beaten to death by Israeli settlers. The U.S. State Department must investigate the killing of a U.S. citizen.

FEMA will no longer go door-to-door to assist disaster victims
The move, says one agency worker, will “severely hamper our ability to reach vulnerable people.”

Senate Republicans are doubling down on the most harmful aspects of the House reconciliation bill, putting millions of Americans at risk of losing health care coverage while prioritizing the fortunes of the ultra-wealthy. Read Jeff Nesbit's breakdown:

The Senate GOP's budget bill is even worse than the House version
It's not a continuation but a dangerous escalation of the assault on American health care.

Federal law has a 48-hour rule that basically says if you’re arrested, you must either be charged and brought before a judge within 48-hours (not incl weekends/holidays) or be released. The family of the Colorado attacker have been held for 2+ weeks without charges filed. Charge them or release!

There are widespread reports of ICE agents abducting people while masked, without warrants or identification. Due to recent events, we strongly advise: do not open your door or car for anyone you don’t know. That’s the message. No need to elaborate.
