ICE’s abuses go beyond the headlines. Residents are afraid to go to schools, to grocery stores, to even step outside. Agents are patrolling the streets like a military operation. A 20% reduction is not enough. All of ICE needs to leave Minneapolis now.
Federal agents tear-gassed demonstrators and children in Portland. An agent in Colorado stole a woman’s phone and threw her to the ground. The disgraced former head of Border Patrol urged mass arrests. This isn't what Americans signed up for. We must rein in ICE.
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE: End the roving patrols and racial profiling. Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police. Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
I want to be very clear: Kristi Noem doesn't get participation points by saying agents will start doing what they should've done all along. This is the bare minimum and should apply to agents nationwide. And there is still so much more to do.
A headline by CBS News reads "All immigration officers in Minneapolis will start wearing body cameras, Noem says"
Democrats will fight and block Trump’s calls to nationalize elections. The very pillars of American society, democracy and the rule of law will prevail over cult of personality.
Trump called for Republicans to, “take over voting in 15 states in the country.” Trump calling on his own party to nationalize voting is just more dangerous, autocratic poison. Our democracy is at risk, and it’s all the President’s fault.
Americans from all walks of life agree that the status quo cannot continue. What's happening in Minneapolis and other cities around the country is not law and order, it's thuggery. We will keep working to rein in ICE’s abuses.
The SAVE Act is nothing more than Jim Crow 2.0. It would disenfranchise millions of Americans. Every single Senate Democrat will vote against any bill that contains it. Speaker Johnson should tell SAVE Act Republicans to stand down or else this shutdown will be on them.
This is the type of man that Donald Trump allowed to rise to the top of America's immigration enforcement. Disgusting, but not surprising for this out-of-control and despicable administration. We must weed out all of the Dan Bovinos from positions of power—and there are A LOT more of them.
A headline from NYT reads: Bovino Is Said to Have Mocked Prosecutor’s Jewish Faith on Call With Lawyers
3. Your numbers keep changing. You say you collected 6 million pages but you’re only releasing 3 million. What’s in the 3 million that are missing?
1. You say all the documents are released. Does that include ALL of the co-conspirator memos, the corporate protection memos, the original Palm Beach Police Department reports, etc.?
42 days, and counting, after violating the law by failing to release all the Epstein files, Trump’s DOJ has released millions more pages. I’m reviewing the files, and I’ve got some questions for AG Bondi:
Trump's number one priority has been to make the wealthy, wealthier—it has never been the millions of young Americans looking to buy their first home. He’s giving the middle finger to our youngest generation. @democrats.senate.gov are focused on making homeownership possible for everyone.
Trump: "People that own their homes -- we're gonna keep them wealthy. We're gonna keep those prices up. We're not gonna destroy the value of their homes so that somebody who didn't work very hard can buy a home."
The Senate is scheduled to take the first procedural vote on a funding package including DHS funding tomorrow. Let me be clear: Until ICE is properly reined in and overhauled, the DHS funding bill won’t have the votes to pass the Senate.
The attack on Rep. Omar tonight was a despicable act of political violence and intimidation. I am glad Rep. Omar is OK, and I thank USCP and local police for their quick action to apprehend the suspect.
