I'm not the only one making this observation... They want a less intellectual, *more compliant population* molded by education that does not focus on a college track. 👉Not everyone needs to go to college (& take on that debt). 👉But *their* kids will go to Ivys. 📺 youtu.be/DydIwlQYdtQ?...

Linda "A1" McMahon is promoting trade schools in this way bc the RW wants worker bees w/o focus on critical thinking skills, media literacy, or civics ed — the means to criticize/challenge govt. (Note: education today on that front is already a FAIL; this will cement it.) 📺 t2m.co/1iouMsAb

Every Democrat in Congress should put out a video saying troops have an obligation to refuse unlawful orders. Make them prosecute all of you. This isn't a close call. I'd add Republicans too if I thought any of them had the courage to actually cross Trump on this.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.
One attorney, Lizbeth Mateo, said ICE officials slated several of her clients for check-ins at the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building in downtown L.A. but when they showed up on Tuesday, they were detained and immediately escorted to the basement.

Mateo said a couple and their two children, one of whom is a U.S. citizen, spent the night in a room with no beds and limited access to food and water. Mateo said the father had previously been issued a stay of removal, barring him from deportation but he and his family were detained anyway. His wife was released Wednesday evening along with their children since she needed medical attention due to a high-risk pregnancy. He was still being detained early Friday, Mateo said.
