ICE Blocked From Making Arrests. Jamal Bryant Calls Out Intruding White Pastor, Nicki Minaj & Trump

A federal judge in Oregon issued a preliminary order blocking Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from making arrests without warrants, unless there is a clear likelihood of escape. This ruling stems from a class-action lawsuit targeting the Department of Homeland Security's 'arrest first, justified later' approach to immigrant arrests. Oregon now joins Colorado and Washington D.C. in prohibiting such warrantless arrests without confirmed flight risk.

The ruling came as part of a preliminary order in a class action lawsuit targeting the Department of Homeland Security's practice of arresting immigrants. Oregon now joins Colorado and Washington DC as jurisdictions where the Trump administration is prohibited from conducting warrantless arrests without first confirming that the individual is a flight risk.

A federal judge allowed a class-action lawsuit to proceed, challenging the conditions of a work assignment at the Louisiana State Penitentiary, known as Angola. The suit alleges that the 'farm line,' which involves field labor on the site of a former slave plantation, violates the Eighth Amendment (cruel and unusual punishment) and the Americans with Disabilities Act. State officials contend the farm line is essential for prison operations.

Eighth-grader Jefferson Mcclennon spoke at a Prince William County school board meeting, detailing repeated racial slurs from other students. He highlighted the disparity in response: slow and silent when racism was directed at him, but immediate (a three-day suspension) when he reacted physically to a slur. He questioned why the school failed to provide a safe learning environment and allowed racism to go unchecked.

These are racial slurs said directly to me by other students. I have reported this harassment before. Nothing seems to happen and it keeps happening. Recently, after being told, 'Shut up, nigger.' I reacted. I hit another student for that. The school acted quickly. I was suspended for three days.

Historian Dante King frames Nicki Minaj's public support for Donald Trump as a manifestation of 'unexamined anti-blackness' and celebrity narcissism. He argues that it represents pandering to whiteness for personal brand and capital, sending a dangerous message to younger black people by disconnecting cultural power from historical responsibility and socio-cultural roots.

I think Nicki Minaj, she just positioned herself as um, you know, either kind of the Jezebel or or the mammy... she has she is dealing with unexamined antilackness as many people of African descent are... this is about how much more attention she can get for herself and for her brand and how that's going to translate into dollars uh into capital for her.

Fulton County officials filed a motion seeking the return of 2020 election ballots and records seized by FBI agents at Donald Trump's behest. Commissioner Marvin Arrington Jr. argues the seizure violated Georgia law, circumvented judicial processes, and broke the chain of custody, making it impossible to verify the integrity of the documents if returned. He frames it as a 'racist attack' on black cities to sow distrust in the election process.

The county filed a motion seeking the return of the original 2020 election ballots and records that were seized by FBI agents at the behest of Donald Trump... it is a violation of Georgia law for this information to be shared... now the chain of custody has been broken. Even if the judge orders them to give us all the documents back, we still won't know whether they gave us all the documents back...
