🇺🇸 Today’s the day! Join Democrats Abroad UK in Lewes, East Sussex for an afternoon celebrating democracy, civic action, and the enduring legacy of Thomas Paine: www.democratsabroad.org/american_cri...
Promotional graphic for a Democrats Abroad United Kingdom event in Lewes celebrating the legacy of Thomas Paine and his influence on the Declaration of Independence. The text announces the event on Sunday, July 5, and says it will feature speakers, live music, comedy, food, drinks, voter registration support, and more, with a QR code linking to event details.

The graphic combines an engraved portrait of Thomas Paine, the title page of Common Sense, photos of historic buildings in Lewes including The White Hart, and a vintage-style “Americans Must Vote Against Tyranny!” poster.

The data we are getting out of ICE now conclusively destroys their "worst of the worst" narrative. Since the Los Angeles raids began in June last year, there has been a massive expansion of ICE arrests against people with no criminal record, while arrests of others remained flat.
Chart showing Average Daily ICE Arrests by Criminal Record, 7-Day Rolling Average, October 1, 2024 to March 5, 2026. The data shows that arrests of people with any prior conviction or any pending charge fluctuated between 300-400 a day from June 2025 to March 2026, never spiking much below or above that. By March, arrests of that group had fallen from 380 a day in June 2025 to around 300 a day in March 2025

Arrests of people with any pending charge have fluctuated between 250 and 375 a day. In June 2025 it was around 300 a day. As of March 2026, it is also around 300 a day.

By contrast, arrests of people with no criminal record spiked to nearly 600 a day during the Los Angeles operation, and have consistently been above 350. Arrests of this group were above 500 a day from the start of Operation Midway Blitz in September through January. As of March 5, they had fallen to just over 400 a day.

Gerald Ford vetoed naming a post office after himself.
(archive document) 

Memorandum of Disapproval

I have today vetoed H.R. 11897, a bill which would name the United States Courthouse and Federal Office Building in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the "President Gerald R. Ford Federal Office Building."

Although I appreciate the honor expressed by the Congress in enacting this legislation, I intend to continue the policy of past Administrations that the executive branch not endorse the naming of Federal office buildings. Generally, the executive branch has deferred to the desires of the Congress on such matters.

Although several Federal office buildings have been named for incumbent members of the Congress, I know of none that have been named for a President while still in office. I consider it improper for me as an incumbent President to approve legislation which places my name on a Federal building. This is a precedent I do not wish to establish.

In general, I feel this way: office buildings which house the functions of Government should not be used as monuments to Federal officials, but rather as workshops for the people's business.

In particular, I would hope our Presidents will be remembered for their labors in building better Government rather than for their efforts in constructing public works projects to themselves.
