We’re collectively raising our voices against Trump’s morally bankrupt policies and rhetoric toward immigrants. Today we're rallying in streets across the country to say: #FamiliesBelongTogether. #EndFamilyDetention #TheMarchContinues

Ripping children away from their parents and locking them in cages, and stripping immigrants of due process rights offends the Constitution and our fundamental principles of justice, fairness and equality. #EndFamilyDetention #FamiliesBelongTogether splcenter.org/news/2018/06/2…
We #StandWithImmigrants in Atlanta, Georgia. #FamiliesBelongTogether #EndFamilyDetention
In Jackson, Mississippi, we say: #FamiliesBelongTogether.
#EndFamilyDetention
In Montgomery, Alabama, #TheMarchContinues for immigrant justice. #FamiliesBelongTogether #EndFamilyDetention

Last year, we won a temporary stay of deportation for journalist Manuel Duran, who was arrested in Memphis in April, then detained & threatened with deportation.

This year, we'll keep fighting for immigrants in the Deep South. #SPLCWinterReadingList bit.ly/2Bb112a
Like so many others who have been deported or are detained & awaiting deportation, Manuel Duran would be in grave danger if her were deported from the US. splcenter.org/news/2018/12/1…
Law students volunteered with us to help defend our clients. "Immigration prisons exact an enormous emotional toll, & they make it nearly impossible for prisoners to find legal representation for their asylum cases," one wrote. splcenter.org/attention-on-d…

"Let me be clear: walls work and we have them we are stopping illegals from getting into our country.” — DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.

Let’s be clear: walls don’t work and no human is illegal.
Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA): How many children 17 years old or younger have died in DHS, ICE or CBP custody since you took office?

DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen: I will get back you.

That number should be 0.
"I'm not a liar. We've never had a policy of family separation." — DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen

We represent parents who have been separated from their children. Secretary Nielsen's claims do not reflect the facts that we are seeing on the ground. bit.ly/2Ltf7iV

Peter Brown is a US citizen who was mistakenly detained by ICE after local sheriffs arrested him. We're suing. npr.org/2018/12/18/677…
In January, 17 Florida counties signed Basic Ordering Agreements, which compensate local sheriffs for their collaboration with ICE. Our lawsuit is the first to challenge a Florida sheriff for unlawfully detaining people at ICE’s request as part of a BOA. splcenter.org/news/2018/12/0…
Peter Brown was released from detention but as a result of the ordeal he lost his job and was unemployed. He also lives with the fear that he’ll be sent away from his family and friends. splcenter.org/seeking-justic…

Trump and Mussolini: 11 Key Lessons from Historical Fascism

Italian fascism provides a better model for our moment than Nazi Germany—and the comparison is not encouraging.

By: @Anis_Shivani for @AlterNet

Fascism is a religion. The 20th century will be known in history as the century of fascism.
〰️ Benito Mussolini

2/
I’d like to draw some comparisons and contrasts between our present situation and that of #fascist Italy between 1922 and 1945. I choose fascist #Italy rather than #Nazi #Germany because it has always seemed to me a better comparison.

Against Normalization: The Lesson of the “Munich Post”

By Ron Rosenbaum @RonRosenbaum1

THE TRUMP-HITLER COMPARISON.
Is there any comparison? Between the way the campaigns of Donald #Trump and Adolf #Hitler should have been treated by the #media and the culture? The way the media should act now? The problem of #normalization?
2/
Because I’d written a book called Explaining Hitler several editors had asked me, during the #campaign, to see what could be said on the subject.

Until the morning after the election I had declined them.

Like so many others, I am horrified and heartbroken by what is happening to immigrant kids and families because of this administration’s disastrous policies.
We now know that more than 700 kids were separated from their parents between October 2017 and April 2018. As a mother and a grandmother, it’s devastating to even imagine.
Not only that - this administration built on their "zero tolerance" policy earlier this month. The result? Nearly 700 more kids were separated from their families in the first two weeks of the new program. Think about that. Hundreds of families torn apart in two weeks.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
