Thank you, @GovTimWalz, for your leadership in Minnesota and your dedication to fighting for justice and accountability.
Along with nearly 30 members of Congress, I’m with you today in Minneapolis-Saint Paul today to conduct oversight and seek out the truth.
It’s easy to watch the news and feel overwhelmed or even helpless at everything going on. I need you to fight that feeling.
I’m an optimist. You have to be when you strap yourself to a rocket for a living. But there’s real reason to be hopeful this year and l’ll tell you why.
AOC: They are sending ICE into the streets. They’re invading other countries. They are tweeting crazy shit. But what they’re not doing is lowering the price of groceries. What they’re not doing is raising people’s wages. What they’re not doing is creating jobs, because we’re having horrible unemployment numbers, especially for young people
Thanks. NPR ratings are way up and local stations are receiving more contributions. Many Americans want to learn about the world from firsthand reporting.
Other people just want to be affirmed by their side’s propaganda. If that’s you, other outlets will gladly take your money.
AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.
1. He wasn't hit by a car, which we believe because we have eyes
2. I didn't realize "hey dude I'm not mad at you" is harassment that warrants a death sentence
3. He killed an innocent woman
4. Shooting her in the face did nothing to protect him. Stepping out of the way did
Trump and ICE must be reined in by Congress and the courts.
We cannot wait for even more horrific atrocities to confirm what we already know:
These escalating ICE raids don't make us safer—they intentionally stoke fear and tear communities apart.
BREAKING: Massive Crowds of Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, Minnesota as we speak. The tide is turning. America is Fed Up.
Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.
Remember though to stay 100% peaceful and avoid violence at all cost. They want violence in order to send the military in.
WATCH THIS NOW!
Doctor on scene: I'm a physician.
Ice agent: I DON'T CARE
They shot her three times in the face and head and then denied her medical care and it's all ON CAMERA.
Walz: "It's beyond me that apparently from the federal government, the Homeland Security director herself, has already determined who this person who, what their motive was, and they hadn't even been taken out of the vehicle. We're not living in a normal world."
This morning, an ICE agent murdered a woman in Minneapolis—only the latest horror in a year full of cruelty.
As ICE attacks our neighbors across America, it is an attack on us all. New York stands with immigrants today, and every day that follows.
I just left the Venezuela briefing.
It's worse than you thought.
Oil company executives seem to know more about Trump's secret plan to "run" Venezuela than the American people.
We need public Senate hearings NOW.
AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.
Renee Good was trying to drive away.
The ICE agent shot her twice through her side window.
The ICE agent walked away uninjured.
We all saw this on video. They all know we saw this on video.
They're lying about it for the same reason they lie about everything: they think they can get away with anything, even murder.
They are despicable, garbage human beings.
@TheEmilyDBaker can you give your legal perspective on the litigation happening with the Sister Wives TLC when you have some time please please please 🙏
