The Department of Homeland Security is murdering American citizens. Congress cannot allow that to continue. Getting these people out of Minnesota and cutting off funding should be a minimum response. This is an outrage and an assault on our rights and freedom and it must stop.

As with the murder of Renee Good, this video immediately established that DHS was lying about the shooting. The video shows that this was murder. And once again, DHS is obstructing local authorities from investigating a homicide in their community perpetrated by DHS agents.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

The safest place to be during a winter storm is inside. If you encounter someone you believe needs housing support, call 3-1-1.

And please make sure you're prepared! Pick up any medications or essential. Charge any external batteries if you have them, make sure you have a few flashlights at home, and an extra set of batteries just in case.

We're expecting snow this weekend, and weather reports indicate this may be one of the DC area’s biggest winter storms in years! Keep an eye on the weather with @capitalweather.bsky.social: www.washingtonpost.com/local/weather/

I voted against the House Republican bill to redirect federal funds to fraudulent so-called “crisis pregnancy centers,” which are just forced birth clinics. The last thing pregnant women need is someone playing pretend doctor when they are experiencing a health crisis. youtube.com/shorts/mohwo...

Roe v. Wade affirmed a woman’s right to bodily autonomy and reproductive freedom, but Republicans have since rolled that progress back and continue attacking women’s access to care. We must pass the Women’s Health Protection Act to codify Roe's protections into federal law.

I just voted against the appropriations "minibus," including the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act. Here's my statement explaining why: beyer.house.gov/news/documen...

ICE and CBP are spending taxpayer dollars to terrorize our cities. We absolutely cannot continue to fund this lawlessness.

ICE agents in Minnesota detained at least four children from the same school district, including a 5-year-old, deepening skepticism about the Trump administration’s claims of targeting violent criminals. https://wapo.st/4sQVmpA

Israel is actively stealing Palestinian land in the West Bank. Palestinians are being forced to leave and their homes are being destroyed. Secretary Rubio has acknowledged that these actions undermine peace. I joined my colleagues to demand Secretary Rubio stand up against Israel’s bullying.

Trump promised to lower prices, and broke that promise. He's failing miserably on inflation. Prices for health care, electricity, groceries, housing, and transportation are shooting up. Trump's stupid tariffs and other policies are making it worse.

Glad to see @governorva.bsky.social and the General Assembly moving to ensure Virginia rejoins the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative. RGGI helped bring millions of dollars for clean energy and flood mitigation, and will help lower costs for Virginians. A good deal for our Commonwealth.

Immigration officers assert sweeping power to enter homes without a judge's warrant, memo says

An Immigration and Customs Enforcement memo obtained by The Associated Press reveals that the agency allows immigration officers to forcibly enter homes to make arrests without a judicial warrant.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

The Gravamen of the Disclosure

4. The gravamen of the disclosure is as follows:
a. By memorandum dated May 12, 2025 (“the May 12 Memo”), Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons authorizes ICE agents to forcibly enter into certain people’s homes without a judicial warrant, consent, or an emergency.

b. Specifically, in the May 12 Memo, the Acting ICE Director authorized ICE Agents to rely on Form I-205 (which is not a judicial warrant) to enter the residence of an alien subject to a final order of deportation, without consent, including by “a necessary and reasonable amount of force.”2c. While addressed to “All ICE Personnel,” in practice the May 12 Memo has not been formally distributed to all personnel. Instead, the May 12 Memo has been provided to select DHS officials who are then directed to verbally brief the new policy for action. Those supervisors then show the Memo to some employees, like our clients, and direct them to read the Memo and return it to the supervisor.
