So executing a valid search warrant to recover stolen classified documents at Mar-a-Lago is an “illegal, partisan witch hunt” Yet when a racist president who tried to incite a race war against Somalis and called Ilhan Omar “garbage” has DOJ raid her home for this sham, it’s supposedly acceptable

After a woman obtained public records indicating a Google datacenter would cover only one-third of the cost of a new solar plant to power the facility — contradicting its promises that ratepayers would not be on the hook — her electricity company sued her.

In our new report, we document how ICE responds to hunger strikes: isolating people in “segregation units,” transferring strike leaders to other detention centers, and force-feeding through nasal tubes. This leaves many people feeling they have no other option but to resort to this extreme protest.
