It sometimes feels like we're living in a ridiculously exaggerated folk tale with wildly implausible villains. For example, as the president takes billions for himself and his family and *coats his things in gold,* the soldiers fighting his war can't get toothpaste, hot water, or a clean toilet.

I met with NJEA to discuss the needs of educators in New Jersey and learn about the challenges they’re facing, including ICE presence around schools and bus stops. Every kid deserves to feel safe going to school and we must do everything we can to support teachers and students.

A woman’s Global Entry was revoked days after she legally observed ICE agents. ICE agents showed up to a polling place to demand a worker remove an anti-ICE post. A man was sentenced to 30 years in prison for moving a box of left-wing magazines. Trump’s crackdown on dissent is here. Be warned.
