Here's the truth about ICE & qualified immunity...

Today, the Department of Homeland Security shared a video of non-lawyer Trump lackey Stephen Miller offering an alarmingly incorrect legal conclusion to all ICE agents on X (formerly Twitter).

~Apparently...We’re Not Done Yet!

Some might call us overachievers, but we take our cues from the best of us – YOU! We increased our EOY goal to $100k, and you showed us that we should aim higher - so we’re heeding the call.

Between now and January 20th, we are flying high with our final goal of $150k! And, we even have a generous donor who is offering a match up to $15k for the next two weeks.

Make your final contribution to maximize our end of 2025 fundraiser goal - cldc.org/donate

Fundraising update graphic with silhouetted forest treeline against dawn sky. Header reads 'WE'RE NOT DONE YET!' followed by text explaining CLDC increased their End of Year Fundraiser goal to $100k and is responding to donor encouragement to aim higher. Bottom section shows five black ravens in silhouette, one wearing a small red scarf, with text: 'Like a flock of ravens, we will fiercely protect our own. The more staff we can hire, the better we can protect our flock. Will you answer the call?' CLDC logo (raven with gavel in circular badge) appears in top right corner.

📢 Announcing: Political Activists & Grand Juries

The attorneys at CLDC have put together an incredible resource regarding political activists and grand jury noncooperation. Grand juries are just one of many tools of state repression that seek to weaken the power of the people to organize against government and massive corporations. Political movements must learn their history or be bound to repeat it.
