Trump told the military to use American cities as "training grounds". He told soldiers not to help their black or transgender minority colleagues. He told them to forget the NATO military alliance and pitched the option of attacking an allied country. He demeaned their international comrades from Afghanistan. And he ridiculed the fallen.

I predict, when the revolution comes, and revolutionaries close in on The White House, Trump will call the military, only to realize they have already arrived.

A disabled woman named Alma Bowman spent 30 months, nearly three years, in ICE custody during the first Trump regime.

The daughter of an American veteran, they revoked her status because she wrote $1200 in bad cheques twenty years ago. Which she paid back.

When she finally got out of the camps, she worked with the US government as a whistleblower to prosecute detention centre employees who were sterilizing immigrants without consent.

Who were performing unnecessary hysterectomies and tubal ligations.

She used her real name. She stood up for injustice. She tried to protect others.

Now ICE has taken her again, and the media have been largely silent.

The MAGA crowds are cheering because they have no compassion.

No one should be treated this way.

I’m going to keep saying her name until she gets the attention she deserves. She needs to be released.

Justice for Alma.
