More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

FYI Kimmel’s return is especially good news for the entire crew behind the scenes that would have lost their jobs in an already hurting industry. So yay for them.

I cannot stress this enough. We are protesting Broadview because of the human rights violations happening within the ICE facility. If they are willing to assault me on camera, imagine what they are doing to detainees behind boarded-up windows.

ICE agents held a man’s five year old autistic daughter and taunted him with “Is that your daughter” in an attempt to get him to come out of the house. They were rebuffed but two days later took him from his car.

Kenvue, which owns Tylenol, is issuing mildly worded statements when they need to say “we are going to sue you into the middle of next year.” There is no scientific basis whatsoever for people with zero medical expertise telling anybody to not take Tylenol, cut and dried interference-with-commerce

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

I know it's frustrating when lawyers point out when something the administration is doing is not legal. But responding with "the law doesn't matter anymore" is really unhelpful and defeatist. Clarifying the law is important because it reminds us not to comply in advance and to resist and take action
