A THREAD 🧵 HOW DID WE GET HERE? The day Decarlos Brown Jr. crossed paths with Iryna Zarutska on a NC light rail train ended in tragedy. Minutes later she was dead. This was not an isolated event. It was the outcome of decades of broken policy on serious mental illness. The IMD Exclusion is one of the quietest rules in Medicaid law yet it has fueled homelessness, incarceration & tragedy for decades. This thread traces how we got here & why it must end.

Baltimore, MD — Leaked footage from the ICE Baltimore Field Office shows roughly 50 detainees crammed into a holding cell with no beds or bathrooms for more than 10 days, with detainees alleging beatings, lack of bathing, and hunger, including claims that U.S. citizens are being held alongside non-citizens and “kidnapped” in conditions meant only for short-term processing. #goodmorningbadnews #ice #iceout #trump #baltimore





🚨🇺🇸 NEW FOOTAGE SHOWS ICE AGENT HIT BY CAR BEFORE FIRING IN MINNEAPOLIS CHAOS The woman hit the federal agent with her car before he fired back. A moving vehicle is legally a deadly weapon, and the agent responded in what appears to be self-defense. Protesters quickly swarmed the scene, chanting “Nazi” and accusing ICE of murder before facts were confirmed. With the footage now public, the narrative pushed by some officials and activists is falling apart. Source: @nicksortor
