IMPORTANT THREAD 👉🏽 In 2017, Tarrant County, Texas voluntarily signed an agreement to cooperate with immigration to enforce federal laws. We must stay informed about how this program impacts our families and communities NATIONWIDE.
The ICE out of Tarrant #End287g campaign is led by community members and organizations who aim to protect immigrants and bring awareness about the harm created by this program.
THIS MONTH the the 287(g) agreement will come up for a vote and we are asking EVERYONE to join us in asking that this program not be continued. No matter where you are, please sign the petition to join your voice with others fighting for immigrants: bit.ly/2KO98qI

On #worldrefugeeday we're launching the Build a Bridge campaign to change the way we think of immigrants, to change the terms of the debate.

We need bridges. Not tents. Not cages.

Let's build the society we all dream of. Take the #BuildABridge pledge NOW bit.ly/2x44s7R
America needs a new vision for immigration to ensure that every new member of our society is afforded their rights and treated with dignity.

Migrants are human beings like every other person in this country.
For too long we’ve been wrapped up in the broken idea of “comprehensive immigration reform” and in trying to stop bad policy from being implemented.

When you all hear of ICE raids, remember this:

“I think that what the companies right now that are holding the power need to recognize is that the government could not do what it is doing now without them," - @jonathandryan in convo with @karaswisher

nytimes.com/2019/06/19/opi…
@jonathandryan @karaswisher "@ErikaAndiola noted that the tech companies’ tools are helping a “machine of deportation.”

“If tech wants to walk hand in hand with our government in this experiment in tyranny,” @jonathandryan told the crowd, “then go for it.”

If your workplace is raided by @ICEgov remember:

👉🏽You have the right to say that you want to speak to an attorney.

👉🏽 You have the right to remain silent.

👉🏽 You have the right against unlawful searches by ICE agents.

👉🏽 You don't have to sign any documents.
Read more about your legal rights you have if ICE raid your work place in this helpful fact sheet @LegalAidAtWork put together: legalaidatwork.org/factsheet/work…
@LegalAidAtWork It's not surprising Trump made this threat as he launches his re-election campaign.

Truth is: he describes normal ops that already take place every day.

Those of us who work with & are part of immigrant communities know that these attack are taking place every day, all along.

#THREAD: Details from yesterday's closing arguments in the federal trial against #NXIVM leader Keith Raniere. The day began around 9:30 with AUSA Moira Penza giving the prosecution's arguments. news10.com/news/local-new…
She began by describing many known NXIVM locations in Clifton Park. Penza says 127 Grenadier Court was Allison Mack's condo where the branding of women took place with their "arms above head like a sacrifice."
2 Flintlock where she says Raniere took sexually explicit photos including those of a 15 year old. 120 Victory Way, where she says DOS witness Nicole was tied to a table, blindfolded, not knowing she was being videotaped.

Robert Mueller today, in part: "If we had had confidence that the President clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so. We did not, however, make a determination as to whether the President did commit a crime. #thread
Under long-standing Justice Dept policy, a present President cannot be charged w/ a federal crime while in office. That is unconstitutional. Even if the charge is kept under seal. The Special Counsel office is a part of the Justice Dept. and by regulation is bound by that policy.
Charging the POTUS with a crime was, therefore, not an option we could consider. The opinion permits the investigation of a sitting POTUS because the evidence and recollections need to be fresh and documents available.

O corte dos recursos para as universidades públicas representa o fim do sonho de ascensão social para muitas famílias que viam, nos filhos, a possibilidade de ter uma velhice melhor. Isso não é o que eu acho, não é exagero meu. É a realidade que eu presencio. #Thread
Vai ficar mais difícil para os sertanejos do Pernambuco se formarem. A Universidade Federal Rural perdeu R$ 23,6 milhões. Na Univasf, o corte de R$ 11 milhões vai impactar no programa de assistência a estudantes pobres. E no sertão, meus amigos, eles são muitos.
A Universidade Federal do Cariri, no interior do Ceará, perdeu 47% do seu orçamento. Em seis anos de existência, a instituição já tem 23 cursos de graduação e cinco cursos de mestrado. A reitoria emitiu nota dizendo que se a decisão não for revertida, a UFCA deixa de existir.

'Heroism & patrotism. A lesson from Kenya.'
#Thread

The world has come to accept the fact that just like burglary & carjacking, terrorism has come to stay. I personally have come to terms with the fact that just like you can never tell when the next carjacking will happen
so are acts of terrorism unpredictable. This now makes me wonder at the lives of our men/women in law enforcement & first responders who show up at the scene bearing in mind that no day on the job is ordinary. What they don’t know for sure is what danger they will face when they
rush out on a call. Will they walk into a hostage situation like Kenya hotel a few hours ago? Or get caught up in an explosion from a suicide bombers vest? Or walk smack into a hail of bullets from the rounds of an automatic weapon fired by the devils sent to stop our peaceful

A: Depends!
