My office is suing Aneva Gym in Long Island City for unlawfully making it hard for New Yorkers to cancel their membership and failing to give people written contracts.   No one should ever have to struggle to get out of an expensive gym membership.

(🚨) BREAKING: Trump is now openly advocating for ethnic cleansing *inside the United States* via the ethnic-cleansing technique known as “remigration.” He admits that he’s not just speaking of “illegal aliens” but those with a criminal record who have “Third World” (in his usage, nonwhite) ancestry.

This is why I wrote my pinned report, which draws from my time as a criminal defense attorney. This jackass says he’s going to define “get violent” for the people in his county... ...but the *first six offenses he names* are non-violent offenses. They are changing definitions to justify fascism.

🚨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.

Jong-Fast: This would be the largest cut to food assistance in US history—and it will result in hungry kids. It’s also important to mention that this bill grows the deficit. I don’t know how it manages to do the two things you absolutely don’t want—starve children and grow the deficit—but it does.
