More than 500 U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE, according to ProPublica. 70% of ICE detainees have no criminal conviction. Trump’s promise to go after the “worst of the worst” was always a lie. It was always a pretext to terrorize Black and brown communities. Remember this.

Excuse me, but just how does the focus on the trans community help us solve the affordability crisis or end the Iran War? To say nothing of getting the Epstein Files released?

There is nothing antisemtic about opposing war crimes. In fact I would argue that Netanyahu is antisemitic because he is putting Jews everywhere at risk by conjoining zionism with Palestinian ethnic cleansing.

This is so stirring - a reminder of the AIDS Quilt. As a country we will suffer the guilt of the atrocities we allowed to be visited on our neighbors and friends who were sojourning here for many years. This kind of action at least allows the future to know not everyone was on board.
