We scoured social media, court records and local stories for instances of immigration agents holding citizens against their will. The administration doesn’t track these cases. So we have. We’re sharing our database with you.

Housing director Bill Pulte lies his ass off: "The cost of a new home is in some cases 20%, 30% lower than it was under Biden ... President Trump was crushed inflation."

I'm retired. I admit to missing some of the ways work gave me a chance to use my head. But for much of the population, I think talking about the dignity of work is really about the dignity of having a paycheck and money for your life. Lottery winners don't lose their dignity by not working.

Trump traded GEO Group and CoreCivic stocks, two private prison corporations, nearly 30 times in 2025. GEO Group’s profits increased by 700% that year and CoreCivic raked in $650 million in ICE contracts — both benefiting Trump’s stock portfolio. Cashing in on his own cruelty.

We have a President with zero qualifications for the job, who had zero experience. So Democrats decided, Why not? Why can’t we put in a guy with zero experience, zero qualifications, since the Republicans do it? What could go wrong? #Platner gregpalastinvestigates.substack.com/p/platner-fa...

I look at a president who claims unlimited power, ignoring the law and all checks and balances. A House that does his bidding, surrendering the power of the purse. A DOJ that thinks their role is to go after one man's perceived enemies while protecting him from scandal. It's too much.

I can't celebrate. I watch the interviews with the military and I think of bombed children, summary executions of people on small boats, kidnapping the president of another country, and following an ignorant man to war in Iran. I think of SCOTUS ignoring the plain words of the 14th amendment.

It is not only immoral to send people back to unsafe countries experiencing war, famine, and devastation –– it will hurt communities across this country. Haitian workers are integral to the home healthcare industry. The consequences of deporting them would be huge.
