The husband watches as ICE arrests his wife at an immigration appointment.
"When you lose your compassion for those in need, when you cast aside your capacity to care, then the qualities that once allowed you to rise above and the virtues that once made you human are gone."
Let me make this simple:
1) People have been fired - our economy & governmental services have been interrupted because of the firings.
2) The proposed budget includes - cuts to federal worker’s benefits, cuts to Medicaid, cuts to food assistance, & deep tax cuts for the RICH,
3) an average ICE BONUS of ~$44k (BONUS 🤯)
4) And will there be a tax on tips? YES!
AND HERE IS THE KICKER, we still would need to raise the debt ceiling 5 trillion dollars! AFTER all the pain being inflicted on the 99 percenters. it still isn’t enough to pay for the TAX CUTS for the rich!
If you're OK with ANYONE being locked up in a foreign prison without due process, you're OK with YOU being locked up in a foreign prison without due process.
That's how due process works.
Do you get it now?
You paid $150K to float in space for 10 seconds and thought that was inspiring? Meanwhile, actual astronauts just survived 9 months in orbit and returned less than a month ago. You didn’t make history…you bought a moment. And in a world full of crisis and chaos, that flex wasn’t bold. It was empty. Read the room. You’re not admirable. You’re out of touch.
So they could figure out how to get the President of El Salvador to the White House & he couldn’t manage to help his new bestie follow a court order by giving Kilmar Abrego Garcia a ride to the DMV?
I’m grateful to Senator @VanHollenForMD for his actual leadership in this moment!
This is not partisanship… this is about Right v Wrong. The ADMINISTRATION ADMITTED they were wrong & multiple courts have also said they were wrong & to blatantly ignore a court order is an attack on ALL ORDER in this COUNTRY aka a Constitutional Crisis!

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.
The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.
