Here's an idea. Dem Governors & Mayors should be ordering their local law enforcement to arrest any & all unidentified and masked alleged ICE agents. If a random guy in a mask grabbed someone and threw them in a vehicle, we'd call that a kidnapping. Why not here? 1/2

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS. How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share. I’ve got a bill to get it done.

Republicans tried to eliminate the CFPB. Senator Warren and Senate Democrats stopped that from happening. It’s simple: Democrats are fighting to hold big companies accountable and return money to consumers. Republicans are fighting to give tax breaks to billionaires.

These are not police. By law, they have to identify. If they won’t—copy their plates, call the actual police and let them know you are witnessing armed police impersonators.

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

Every time I post about ICE tactics, I get replies, “This is what I voted for.” Really? You voted for a mother crying for mercy while her child is still in school—about to come out and find her missing? There isn’t another way to go about this that preserves our humanity?

I suspect in the days ahead we will hear a large number of people saying publicly what no one has been saying publicly. I suspect everyone reading this knows what I am referring to. A POTUS who falsely accuses Democratic leaders of paying for a military invasion of the United States is a madman.
