My daughter’s speech therapist went out of business because Medicaid reimbursement rates were too low. We do not have Medicaid. I’m going to keep posting this until people understand that when Medicaid gets cut *everyone* loses services.

I've been clear: if President Bukele doesn't want to meet here in D.C., then I intend to go to El Salvador this week to check on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's condition and discuss his release. Kilmar was illegally ABDUCTED and deported by the Trump Admin. He must be brought home NOW.

For folks who don’t know, ethnic studies programs like African American/Africana Studies, Asian American Studies, Chicano Studies and the like come directly from civil right era campus activism. Attempts to disempower such programs should be framed as attacks on civil rights same as much else rn.

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Professor, nurse & hero Rachel Robinson is still with us at age 102. It's a savage indictment of this country that 78 years(!) after Jackie Robinson broke Major League Baseball's color line, she has to see his name dragged by a new generation of white supremacists www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Jackie Robinson Teaches Us to Never Back Down to Bigots
An article on Robinson’s military career was restored to the Defense Department’s website. It’s reminder that we can beat back the racist right.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

Via @maketheroadny.bsky.social: If ICE shows up, know your rights. “ICE does not have the right to enter your home without a valid warrant signed by a judge.” maketheroadny.org/we-protect-us/
IF ICE SHOWS UP, KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!
If immigration (ICE) comes to your door or stops you in the streets, you have rights!
1. DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR
ICE does not have the right to enter your home without a valid warrant signed by a judge.
POLICE ICE
?
ICE will not always identify themselves as
ICE. If there is a knock at your door and they say "Police" it could very well be ICE.
ICE will often say they are police to gain access to homes. If at any point they try to enter, or do enter, continue to say
"I DO NOT CONSENT"
If they insist they have a warrant ask them to slip it under the door.
2. REMAIN CALM
Don't run and most importantly do not lie about your name, age, immigration status, etc.
Anything you say or do can be used against you.
If ICE questions you, under the 5th Amendment, you have the right to remain silent and to not incriminate yourself.
If you are detained, ask for an immigration attorney immediately. Although immigration does not provide attorneys, once you ask for an attorney they should no longer question you.
3. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING
Ask to have documents translated. If you do not speak English ask for an interpreter.
Have an attorney look over any documents that ICE gives you.
5. MAKE A FAMILY PLAN
If you have children, identify a caretaker.
4. RECORD
If you witness someone being detained by ICE, you have the right to record as long as you do not interfere with the arrest.
Pictures, videos, and any information you can gather, can help verify an immigration raid and also help someone's immigration case.
Make sure your family is prepared if ICE arrives at your home. Have all your personal documents and finances secure.
Make sure you have at least one number memorized in case of an emergency.
