An ICE official told NBC News on Friday that the agency is "a law enforcement agency, not a social services agency" after news reports revealed that many children of suspects detained this week were left homeless in the immediate aftermath of the raid, though local media reports indicate that all are now staying with family members.

Woody Harrelson Gives Insight After Trump Dies
Oscar-nominee Woody Harrelson has taken on many roles, but an enthusiastic dinner guest of Donald Trump's, long before he was president, may have been his most challenging...Harrelson did admit Trump "did say one thing that was interesting, though."
"He said, ‘You know, I’m worth four billion dollars,’ or maybe he said five billion dollars—one of those numbers, I forget," he said. "'But when I die, no matter how much it is, I know my kids are going to fight over it.’ That was the one true statement he made that night.
REMEMBER WHEN #DonaldTrump SAID HE COULD SHOOT SOMEONE ON FIFTH AVENUE AND GET AWAY WITH IT? WELL, HE DIDN’T SHOOT SOMEONE HIMSELF, BUT HE INCITED OTHERS TO DO HIS DIRTY WORK FOR HIM, AS HE HAS DONE HIS WHOLE LIFE. - Bette Midler

Being black is not illegal.

A woman’s choice to control her body is a Constitutional right.

I Wonder How the People of Color in the DOJ Feel About This.
Alleged white supremacists were responsible for all race-based domestic terrorism incidents in 2018, according to a government document distributed earlier this year to state, local and federal law enforcement.
The document, which has not been previously reported on, becomes public as the Trump administration’s Justice Department has been unable or unwilling to provide data to Congress on white supremacist domestic terrorism.
45 Years Ago Today
August 9, 1974.
Gerald Ford is sworn in as president of the United States after the resignation of President Richard Nixon.
When Nixon left office, I was so relieved that a president was held accountable. I was so naive then.

In the wake of one mass shooting and the threat of another in its stores this week, Walmart has made the courageous decision to remove violent video game displays — but not actual guns — from its stores.
