I still have my audible app for the books I had already bought there, you don’t lose your already purchased books. I just buy new ones with libro. Of course no author will complain if you want to buy their book again 😊

The ICE raids and cruelty we are seeing inflicted on children are unacceptable.

The federal government has stripped legal representation from hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied children. Many will soon face an impossible choice: navigate our immigration system alone or risk detention and deportation.

Our city is stepping up. We've invested $16.9 million in immigration legal services for unaccompanied children, with another $32 million in this year's immigration legal services budget, including rapid-response legal advice and representation for people in detention.

If you need immigration legal support, we're here to help. Our free, confidential Immigration Legal Support Hotline is available in your preferred language, regardless of immigration status.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Democratic politicians telling us today how sad they are about Lindsey Graham's death because he purportedly had such a "great sense of humor" are why Democrats are currently struggling with a base angry and resentful at the evil agendas promoted by the likes of vile toadies like Lindsey Graham.

A cartoonist named Daniel "Des" Rolando Sanchez Estrada was tried as a terrorist and sentenced to 30 years in prison for having anti-Trump comics in his car. Prosecutors connected him to a 2025 anti-ICE protest he didn't even attend because he was in the same book club as others who were.

Voting is important but it is also important to have Democrats to actually do their job when elected, otherwise it just keeps feeding into people’s disillusion and feeling of disenfranchisement. See for example Mikie Sherrill in NJ right now sending state police to brutalize protesters at ICE camp.

Note to media: police arresting peaceful protesters singing “give peace a chance” is not protesters “clashing” with police. It’s the state violating the First Amendment rights of people upset that human beings who did nothing illegal are being held without due process and being fed maggots.

People’s perception of inflation is impacted by the relationship to their wages. Which have kept up with CPI at a macro level since the pandemic, but just barely. Also, lower income households have had wages increase more slowly than for the overall population. So inflation is hurting them more.

When “undecided” is winning the race, it’s a sign that voters don’t find anything that particularly stands out from any of them. Either they’re not communicating their message effectively, or their message is “let’s try not to alienate anyone” (and as a result sound as bland as beige wallpaper).
