I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Now we get to watch a handful of House Republicans act like they're super concerned about the bill, they get bribed and/or threatened behind closed doors, and they magically change their mind.

> Lindsey Boylan, the first woman to accuse Cuomo of sexual harassment: “I can’t even describe how good it feels to know that someone who was trying to obliterate me and all the other women that he harmed did not succeed… His path to victory was to destroy all of us… and it didn’t work.” More below:
Article text: 
Boylan worked closely with Lander's and Mamdani's campaigns leading up to primary day, door-knocking and attending rallies for months. During one rally, Boylan said, a Cuomo supporter accosted her 11-year-old daughter — yelling at her and accusing Boylan of lying about her allegations against Cuomo.
When Boylan finally came home from the restaurant on election night, confident that Mamdani was about to win, she went right to her daughter's room."She knows exactly who Cuomo is. She knows exactly what he's trying to do. She knows exactly what he's done to our family," she said, her voice breaking with emotion. "And the best feeling in my life was to be able to tell her that he didn't
win.”

When people ask why I bothered to make a video calling out Corey Booker for his vote to confirm Charles Kushner bc, “aren’t there bigger things to focus on?” My answer: •we can multitask •every post leaves a digital footprint •Voting records matter When he runs for president, may this find him.

there are at least 2 lessons here we should bear in mind today: 1. People in power rarely concede to the demands of those with less power without organized resistance & mass mobilization 2. Ideas that seem radical one day become can completely normal the next. 12/12
