I’m just a girl, standing in front of her state’s government, asking them to listen.

I just witnessed, in real time, how X disappeared a bunch of responses that were leading to a lively debate. So much for that virtual town hall thing. SMDH

ICE take 10 year old boy to court to deport him—all alone without even a lawyer.

He urinated on himself and wet all his clothing—no one offered him a change for many hours.

"I was scared because it was my first time in court," he said.

Separated from his mom for 4 months now after she was detained during a traffic stop.

Wilfredo and his mother are originally from Venezuela with a pending asylum case.

ICE is now trying to deport him alone without legal representation to Ecuador—a country he's never been to and does not know a single person.

He is temporarily staying with his mom's former boss in Houston, Texas.

This is a good reminder that John Roberts is exactly who John Lewis told us he was.

Jeffrey Epstein, Trump, Peter Thiel... The insidious plot to destroy America was always the billionaire's dream. Devastate American working class families and buy up everything on the cheap — and turn America into a fascist authoritarian oligarchy.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

Federal law prohibits armed federal agents from being deployed at polling places and bans any conduct meant to intimidate voters. Courts have enforced these rules for decades.

What Bannon describes is textbook voter intimidation. It violates election law, civil rights law, and basic democratic norms.

There is no legal gray area here.

Hello, fascism. I could save them a lot of trouble. Just come ask. I’ll tell you exactly what I think of you, with my whole heart exposed, directly to your face.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

Horrifying and unnerving. DHS sent an administrative subpoena to Google for this retiree's records and even sent armed agents out to his house for the "offense" of writing a plea to have mercy on an asylum seeker to a federal official's email address he found via Google.

@RpsAgainstTrump Well, I’m right here MFers.

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets. Learn more from @David_J_Bier.

I’m living in the upside down. What Massie said.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Selling stolen oil and putting billions of dollars in a bank in Qatar to be spent without Congressional approval is not Constitutional.

Only Congress can appropriate money.

The President can’t legally create a second Treasury overseas for his own piggy bank.

Wake up Congress.

Dr. Randall Woods permitted me to share letter to D-G today about the U. of Ark. trampling 1st Amendment by reneging on hiring of law dean who (Repubs whined) participated in legal cases about a transgender athlete and abortion and supported Ketanji Brown Jackson for SCOTUS.

[Slick McGee @Slick_McGees]

Well yes, obviously. That’s how tariffs work.

My opinion is that conservative free speech champions are OK giving 1A a pass when it comes to liberal speech. Say whatever you want as long as you agree with me.

[Arkansas Blog @ArkansasBlog]

Sen. Hester proud his threat to cut UA funding axed law dean pick for her legal brief in trans case. Queen Sarah and shameless Tiny Tim join cheers. What other litmus tests to be set for state employment? National black eye for UA. https://t.co/OmFK803tbX

ICE and CBP have become criminal enterprises

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

ICE agents choked a 16-year-old when they arrested him alongside his undocumented father. He filmed much of it, but ICE didn't give his phone back when he was released. He later found it in a vending machine for used electronics; suggesting an agent stole it and sold it for cash.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨 BREAKING: ICE agents are crashing into civilian vehicles on Minneapolis streets to make arrests.

Residents scream “He did nothing wrong!” as federal agents ram cars, smash windows, and drag people out in broad daylight.

This is not law enforcement.
This is state violence.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

Your reminder once again that the Trump administration does not care about fraud. In fact, it sure seems they're fine with it so long as you're a supporter who donates.

In Minneapolis, fraud is an excuse to go after an ethnic group Trump thinks is "garbage"; no more, no less.

[Maine @TheMaineWonk]

NEW: Trump Admin shelved a massive welfare fraud investigation in Mississippi involving public funds funneled to Brett Favre and others.

Because, of course they did.

[Melanie D'Arrigo @DarrigoMelanie]

The Insurrection Act was always the plan, and Minneapolis is the test case.

They sent ICE in to terrorize and attack Black and brown communities to provoke a response that would justify deploying the military domestically in Blue cities.

This has never been about immigration.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

In many situations like this, the use of armed officers is 100% for show: they could have just called the guy in and arrested him at a standard check-in.

Instead, they’re deliberately sowing fear while creating propaganda for the many cameras they bring along with them.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

BREAKING: ICE threw tear Gas into a Minneapolis vehicle with an African-American family and a six month old baby inside. The baby stopped breathing.

Anybody who stands for this crap needs to re-examine their patriotism.

Please don’t give these horrible people a reason to escalate even further. That is what they want.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

This has been the plan all along.
- Foment violence and chaos in the streets of MN
- Implement the Insurrection Act
- Declare Martial Law
- Suspend elections
