This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.
ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
Lorenzo Salgado Araujo spent 35 years building the American Dream. A business, a home, three sons in college. On Tuesday, ICE agents killed him, then started blaming him before there was ever an investigation.
This is the same agency that killed Renée Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. The tactics haven't changed. The impunity hasn't changed.
There must be a thorough, independent investigation immediately. And we cannot allow another innocent life to be taken by this rogue agency, we must abolish ICE.

Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.
They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.
France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend
The opponents of Medicare For All expect you to believe that the wealthiest country on the planet cannot afford the very thing that other less wealthy countries have been able to afford for decades — and many of those other less wealthy countries have longer average lifespans.
Inflation is at a three-year high. Everything costs more — groceries, gas, healthcare, a plane ticket.
The math is simple. Every American dollar spent overseas on war is a dollar that could’ve been spent here at home to pay for a dignified life. It's time we change the equation.
@BrendanVogt@Adam_Mares Love Jamal yet that’s a shocking quote after getting bounced by them 2 years ago - they needed to lose to them again to maybe take it as personally if there’s a next time?
