I'm just afraid we're going to hear people making that claim now that it's been seeded and that will open up an opportunity for Dems to get mocked/ accused of disinfo. 😬

Yeah, when I was pulling the numbers I thought it might be close if we were only looking at the GOP Senators who won/retained their seat in the most recent cycle.

Regardless, it was insanely unacceptable for DHS security/FBI to lay even a finger on Padilla!

CA is what, about 40M? If we're excluding TX, PA, & FL, the remaining red states still have a larger combined population than that. NC & Ohio each have between 11 & 12M. TN & IN are about 6.5M each. KY, LA & AL together are about 15M. That already gets us over the 40M mark.

A councilman in LA also says ICE went to a confidential DV shelter this week. Other domestic violence shelters are preparing for the same, especially in light of DHS guidance from the Trump administration that says they can conduct enforcement at DV shelters.

A domestic violence service provider in LA tells me a victim has gone missing and is “likely back with her abuser” because she was afraid to go to court to get a restraining order Monday with ICE staking out courthouses.

It is not great that almost 1,000 people reposted the claim without taking a second look.

Are there procedural actions you suggest they take that would make an impact, given they are the minority? Dereliction of duty lies squarely with the Republicans. Besides appealing to the courts and rallying citizens to speak out, contact GOP reps, & peacefully protest what else can they do?
