Fuerza responds to scenes where alleged ICE enforcement is reported. If officers are indeed with ICE, they hit record and spread the word. They also speak directly with those being detained. They are part of a growing scrappy network of volunteers protecting neighbors from ICE. bit.ly/4lgke5N

Try to imagine how the Iraq War would have gone differently if, instead of producing evidence that Iraq was stockpiling WMDs, the intelligence community had produced evidence it wasn’t, and Bush was like “Screw it we’re going to war anyway.” (It wouldn’t have happened and he’d maybe be impeached)

When ICE agents look like this, it is ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for state and local law enforcement to step in and demand they identify themselves and show judicial warrants before detaining anyone from an immigration court. Democratic mayor and governors can take action on this.

This was always a head-scratcher. Muslims for Trump because he “promised” peace in the Middle East. Never mind the Muslim ban and all the hateful things he said about immigrants. 🤷🏽‍♂️

They've got enough money to throw us into another war, but not enough money to fund the suicide prevention hotline. Very "pro-life." Very "pro-family." So "GREAT."

It should be illegal for law enforcement to wear masks and not show ID. This makes it too easy to impersonate law enforcement and murder people in their homes.

🦋 The real reason Brad Lander was detained. Kristi Noem’s goons detained Lander on his 3rd visit accompanying migrants, a day after New York's lawyers amended a complaint about the theft by DHS of $80m awarded to NY City to house migrants. It was Lander, NY Comptroller, who insisted on suing. 🦋

If I – as a U.S. Senator and Vice Chair of the Intelligence Committee – have no answers on what this administration’s policy is when it comes to Iran, what signals does that send to our allies? To our foes?

Dems mostly skipped that hearing, which they see as a pointless John Cornyn exercise designed to give him free media ahead of his tough 2026 primary.
