They think we’re all idiots As Jon Stewart says — if the goal is guaranteed income and jobs, why wait? Why is it only “socialism” if we don’t hand them trillions of dollars first?

New Yorkers: Do you have a form of immigration relief called withholding of removal? Have you received an ICE letter summoning you to 26 Federal Plaza? Here’s what  you can do:

1. Call our Immigration Legal Support Hotline at 1-800-354-0365, or call 311 and say "Immigration Legal" for free, confidential help in your native language.
