For the @NLGnews's Week of Abolition, we sat down with Robert Saleem Holbrook of the Abolitionist Law Center about why abolishing ICE should be a baseline, whether you consider yourself an abolitionist or not. #abolishice

Ford worker who heckled Trump still has job, 'no discipline' on record, per @UAW @ShawnFainUAW: "That's a union brother who spoke up. He put his constitutional rights to work. He put his union rights to work." detroitnews.com/story/business… via @detroitnews

We congratulate the 2026 NLG #Law4thePeople Awardee Katherine Franke for her courageous and unwavering support for Palestinian liberation and speaking out against Israel’s genocide of Palestinians.

All language is made up.

@CynicalPublius All language is made up.

To those who don't already know, "legal observer" is a made-up, Marxist doublespeak term that has zero basis in any federal, state or local statute. It's a BS term contrived by propagandists to give illegal behavior a veneer of fake legality. Don't fall for it.

Congratulations, Samantha Santoro, 2026 #NLG recipient of the C.B. King Student Award for commitment to the abolition of carceral and colonial systems and Michael McLaughlin the 2026 recipient of the Karen Jo Koonan Legal Worker Award for coordinating NLG legal support. @NLGnews

We congratulate Marc Van Der Hout the 2026 recipient of the #NLG's Ernie and Bill Goodman Award for his outstanding litigation and advocacy in immigration law. @NLGnews

@NLGnews @InsiderWire Yeah, no thanks — I’ll gladly skip that donation.

#BREAKING: Nick Sortor was just attacked moments ago at an ICE protest in New Orleans.

@RheinDAmacher @InsiderWire The NLG wears green hats, not yellow vests.

The vultures in their neon yellow vests are none other than the @NLGnews, or as they’re infamously known, the ‘𝘼𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙖 𝙇𝙖𝙬𝙮𝙚𝙧’𝙨 𝙂𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙙.’ These are the same legal ‘𝘦𝘢𝘨𝘭𝘦𝘴’ who defend rioters and undermine our justice system, all while claiming to fight for ‘𝘴𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘦!’

Unironically, this logo kind of slaps.

🚨 UNIFIED CALL TO CONFRONT FAMINE IN GAZA Israel has blocked all humanitarian aid since 2 March 2025. UNICEF: Children are “going to bed starving.” WFP & UNRWA have run out of supplies. This is deliberate. This is starvation as a weapon. 📢Launch the Diplomatic Humanitarian Convoy NOW. Details: law4palestine.org/unified-call-t… #DiplomaticConvoyNow #LetAidIn

The U.S. continues to stand increasingly alone its position to support Israel's genocide against the Palestinian people. truthout.org/articles/us-an…

Today, we celebrate International Workers Day with a call for workers of the world to unite against imperialist repression and genocide. We will see you in the streets!

These guides have helped thousands of people who take to the streets, and demand an end to the atrocities committed by the U.S. at home and abroad.

On this May Day, the NLG remains in solidarity with Palestine, workers, and immigrants.
