ICE causing fires from their own tear gas and flash grenades, don’t get it twisted. They’re the ones causing damages to cities.

To be in public office right now is to constantly ask yourself: How do I make sure I'm standing on the right side of history? There's a simple answer. The wrong side of history will always tell you to be afraid - the right side of history will always expect you to be brave.

To anyone who wondered, what could go wrong if we elected as president a highly volatile, deeply dishonest, simple-minded cretin with a revenge fetish, the answer is THIS. All of THIS.

Everyone should say it: The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But that's not what's interesting about Miller. It's not brains. It's bile.

California representatives did a check in where migrants were being detained. They found no beds, no food and no water. Children were among the detained.

Whenever law enforcement agents are given a quota of a specific number of people to arrest or detain, especially with the WH policy director screaming at their superiors to hit those target numbers, bad things are going to happen. Quotas always result in civil rights violations.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

David Huerta, SEIU California president, was injured and detained during an ICE raid in Los Angeles. After hospital treatment, he remains in federal custody. His arrest, while peacefully observing, has sparked protests and calls for his release, seen by many as a violation of free speech rights.

People in ICE detention are being denied health care and adequate nutrition, often given spoiled food or nothing at all. Our government’s cruelty to immigrants is a moral failing — not a policy solution.

The House snuck a provision into President Trump's signature bill that could give the administration free rein to ignore certain court orders. The Senate must reject this dangerous measure that puts all of our rights in jeopardy.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

LOS ANGELES: Stay off the streets tonight. Stay home. Stay safe. Tom Homan says the National Guard might be deployed — and I’m telling you, he wants violence. They’re baiting us to react so they can escalate. Rule #1: Never protest at night. That’s when the worst happens—under cover of darkness.
