The Royals were one strike away from being the first team in the history of baseball to win a nine-inning game in which they had 11+ hits, 4+ walks, a home run, but only scored one run.
They will have to find another way to make history tonight.
DURBIN: How does taking a father from a child dying of cancer qualify as a violent crime?
NOEM: I don't know what you're speaking of
DURBIN: You know exactly what I'm speaking of. Ruben Torres two weeks ago buried his daughter Ofelia. When he was arrested at Home Depot, he said to your agents, 'Please let me go home. My daughter is dying of cancer.' They said 'No.' They arrested him and deported him for two weeks. Finally he returned for a court hearing. His daughter lived to see that hearing where the court said he was treated unfairly by your agency, and she died 3 days later. I was at her memorial service. Was he a violent criminal?
NOEM: Sir, we enforce the law
DURBIN: What law?
Never imagined a theologian I once looked up to would became so unbelievably WOKE while weaponizing scripture to justify the illegal invasion of a sovereign nation.
Matthew 5:44-45.
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[a] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good”
This is horrifying! 2,300 times a court has found ICE illegally detained some one SINCE JULY! Read a few of these stories. It’s unthinkable how ICE is behaving. This has to stop.
Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.
This is one that stands out:

I'm a lawyer with the non-profit @IJ.
We have the nation's top federal accountability practice and recently won an FBI wrong-house raid case in the Supreme Court.
If you can put me in touch with the Pretti family, I would very much like to speak with them.
We work for free.
So many ironies.
NYT, WaPo (and NPR and others) gave up Pentagon passes rather than sign a restrictive media policy that cast them as a security threat.
It didn’t stop them from learning critical information, which they handled responsibly as they so often have.
