I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

Remember this moment. Trump is reveling in the narcisisstic and sadistic thrill of threatening others with violent death. He will start to crave that feeling.

They’re cranking up the propaganda machine again: claiming Brad Lander “unlawfully interfered” and that ICE is just “enforcing Trump’s policy.” Reality: Lander stood up for civil rights. ICE’s conduct reflects a deeply troubling use of federal power.

Hi, it’s Meg again. Brad is still in ICE custody. We are grateful to the many friends, supporters, and allies who have gathered in Federal Plaza. Together we are standing up for those with no voice.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

My office has received many calls from veterans worried they will be denied care by the Department of Veterans Affairs because of their political affiliation or marital status. I call on Secretary Doug Collins to provide a full briefing to Congress and release all relevant documents to the public.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife. While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE. This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Judge William Young was born in 1940 and was appointed by Reagan in 1985. Judge Amir Ali was born the year Young took the bench and was one of Biden's final judicial appointees. On Monday, they were doing the same job — and showing how to be a judge in this moment.

It's good to see district court judges when they lead the way, in the spirit of Constitutional law, with bold honesty. If only the majority of SCOTUS justices could be relied upon to do the same.

This is freaking weird. Trump just posted a text message he received from Mike Huckabee, his ambassador to Israel, urging him to attack Iran: “I don’t reach out to persuade you. Only to encourage you. I believe you will hear from heaven, and that voice is far more important than mine.”

This is exactly why I press Democrats to push back. The media might do this kind of fact-checking on its own, but when a prominent Democrat makes the case for them, it's much more likely they'll run a piece like this. Well done, @amyklobuchar.com and @sltrib.com
