Generative AI is already killing our planet (and endangering public health). The last thing our communities need is AI infiltrating the so-called "justice" system. Good on the Durham City Council for listening to their constituents. www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

Of the first things that immigrant advocates have said is "Do not open the door unless they have a warrant", and now that is no longer an option. ICE is now allowed to enter your home based on an administrative warrant that gives them the authority to arrest someone with a final order of removal.

A notable uptick of executions have happened this year - and many things are to blame. NC hasn't had an execution in over 19 years, but now our General Assembly is thinking about revisiting resuming them again.

To all the people shouting "just come here legally" - then why is ICE detaining people doing what they're supposed to do? Going to court and legally seeking asylum just to get arrested? You can read more about this disgraceful tactic here: ncnewsline.com/2025/08/08/i...

Incarcerated people frequently face abuse by guards, but without video evidence, their voices often go unheard and justice denied. A recent New York trial exposed how lack of cameras lets alleged violence inside prisons stay hidden. www.themarshallproject.org/2025/06/02/n...
