ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

As long as NYT is asking “Did women ruin the workplace” can they also ask: •Did men ruin safe workplaces? •Did men ruin domestic safety? •Did men ruin public safety? •Did men ruin global peace? Or is a clear “YES” to all these questions just too difficult for fragile men to accept—so NYT avoids it?🤔

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse. I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

A man was arrested for playing Darth Vader's theme music, "The Imperial March," behind National Guard troops walking through Logan Circle. Now the ACLU is suing on his behalf. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Did anyone spot moving vans outside the White House recently that could have been used to remove precious, historic furniture, mantel pieces, fixtures, chandeliers, lamps, and portraits from the East Wing to safety?

Ignore all laws about altering historic properties ✅ Pave over Rose Garden for tacky Mar-A-Lardo Patio ✅ Demolish East Wing after lying that "It won't interfere with the current building. It'll be near it but not touching it" ✅ Build gaudy $250M Ballroom as public struggles financially ✅ #Ugh🤢✅

ICE and DHS are bullies. They’re bullying immigrants. They’re bullying citizens. They’re bullying children. Then they come here and try to bully us digitally. It’s designed to make people afraid to resist. Afraid to speak up. They hadn’t even been here 12 hours & they quote dunked me.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection. Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.
