The Constitution isn’t optional.

The point of the Fourth Amendment’s warrant requirement is to hassle the government.

It’s supposed to be difficult to search or arrest people. That’s not a bug; that’s a feature of our American republic.

We’re currently at the “well if you just didn’t protest the masked government agents abducting people off the street and executing American citizens no one would die” stage of the second Trump administration.

3. Blocking the bill won't stop ICE, but at some point, Democrats have to draw the line and say what's happening in Minnesota and across the country is unacceptable

[Dan Pfeiffer @danpfeiffer]

2. To do so would be to reinforce every negative image voters have of Democrats. They think we are weak, full of shit, and unwilling to back up our warnings about Trump with action that is commensurate with the gravity of those warnings

[Dan Pfeiffer @danpfeiffer]

1. I understand the political risk and the substantive challenges, but Democrats must do everything they can to block the ICE funding bill in Congress.

You can’t call out the fascism of ICE's actions one day and then vote to fund them the next.

[Rachel Fuerer @rfuerer]

@SenGaryPeters Quit your job now and let some else be appointed if you cannot do better than this statement. This is a national emergency. Truly. What will you do to fix it?

[David Hogg 🟧 @davidhogg111]

To all the congressional Democrats who say they’re in the minority so you can’t do anything here’s an idea- start whipping together the votes to replace Hakeem Jeffries who let this happen. Maybe for once think about what the country needs not just what preserves your own power.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

We have a responsibility to protect Americans from tyranny.

DHS just shot a man in broad daylight two weeks after they shot a mother in the face without consequence.

They need our votes to continue. We cannot give it to them. Every Senator should vote NO.

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

Impeach and remove Kristi Noem.

Congress must not fund DHS.

No more money without disciplined leadership and massive reforms—real training, body cameras, no masks—and clear rules for how federal agent misconduct will be investigated, prosecuted, and punished.

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

BREAKING: @AOC just completely went off on Trump after ICE murdered Alex Pretti.

"Donald Trump [is] accusing a Veteran Affairs ICU nurse (Alex Pretti) as being a terrorist against the United States. A man who was treating services members to our country, who was dedicating his life to serving Americans. Who in his final act on this earth was helping a woman pushed to the ground. And they are calling him a Domestic Terrorist, in order to defend their gross abuse of power, their absolute breaching of the law and in order to precipitate greater conflict."

[David Hogg 🟧 @davidhogg111]

To the Democrats in Congress saying you can’t do anything because you’re in the minority we’re not fucking idiots- we can do the math. If you can’t think of a better way of fighting back against Trump/ICE in congress and your community then resign and let somebody else run.

[Chase Oliver @ChaseForLiberty]

This is Dean Withers
He is probably 100% opposed to Charlie Kirk's politics, and he is rightfully upset and showing empathy to Kirk's wife and kids.

Those who want to paint this horror onto everyone on "the left" need to think for a moment and realize that most people don't celebrate murders.

This isn't left vs. right. It's right vs. wrong, and the human decency most of us have vs. the actions of a violent sociopath.

Don't let the murderer win

[MASA @MASASupts]

Today in Lansing, MASA Exec. Dir. Dr. Tina Kerr and superintendents urged lawmakers to finalize the education budget. With jobs, programs, and meals at risk, leaders later showed unity at the State Capitol for fully funding Michigan schools. #MASALeads #MichEd

Iceland is the world’s biggest consumer of SSRIs. They’ve had less than 10 gun homicides since 2020; in the US, there have been over 90,000.

Japan is one of the largest video game markets in the world. They have 10 gun deaths per year; the US has nearly 50,000.

It’s the guns.

[Fred Guttenberg @fred_guttenberg]

This afternoon, in addition to Charlie Kirk, there was a school shooting. Bullets don't know and don't care if you are a Republican or Democrat. It is time for Republicans and Democrats to find a way to work together to reduce gun violence.

[March For Our Lives @AMarch4OurLives]

Gun violence spares no one.

The shooting of Charlie Kirk makes clear that this crisis doesn’t care about ideology or politics — it endangers us all. We know the solutions: stronger background checks, extreme risk protection orders, accountability for the gun industry, and more. What stands in the way is not a lack of answers, but political obstruction. Every day of inaction costs lives.

It’s long past time for leaders of every party to choose people over politics and act.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Political violence from any party or any ideology is a direct assault on the foundations of democracy and the rule of law; it seeks not to persuade but to intimidate, not to debate but to destroy. In every instance it corrodes the public trust, diminishes our shared institutions, and replaces reasoned discourse with fear and coercion. Whatever our differences, they must be resolved through the peaceful exchange of ideas, the ballot box, and the institutions that safeguard our freedoms, not through threats, intimidation, or bloodshed.

[Mike Cerulli @MikeCerulliCT]

In a display of unity across the political aisle, the Young Democrats of Connecticut and Connecticut Young Republicans have issued a joint statement offering prayers for Charlie Kirk and condemning political violence:

[Fred Guttenberg @fred_guttenberg]

Hoping this reaches @realDonaldTrump. I saw your confirmation that Charlie Kirk, someone who you loved, has died. During your first term, someone I loved, was murdered. My daughter Jaime was killed in the Parkland shooting. I had hoped to work with your administration then to reduce gun violence. I am sorry for your loss today. I would still love to work with you to stop the next one.

[David Hogg 🟧 @davidhogg111]

Horrifying news that Charlie Kirk has been shot. Gun violence and political violence have to fucking stop. Charlie, his family, and all the students who had to witness the shooting are in my thoughts. We have disagreements, but we all agree something has to change.
