Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

ICE was "responding" to the chaos ICE itself created. It was not responding to the way LA is without intentional provocation from ICE. And now the National Guard is "responding" to the chaos ICE created. It is not responding to the way LA is without intentional provocation from ICE.

good morning friends 💚✨

The situation in Los Angeles is about to plunge us into a national emergency, except the people that normally solve national emergencies are the ones creating it.

This will be this generation’s Kent State photo, mark my words.

DHS officials requested 20,000 National Guard troops three weeks ago. A memo dated May 9 from Andrew Whitaker, the executive secretary at DHS, states they need up to 3,500 Guard personnel to "Attempt to Locate—Fugitives." An additional 2,500 Guard soldiers are required for detention support.

Meiselas: As we wrote on the MeidasTouch account—Trump lit the match, poured the gasoline, and now wants to use the blaze he created as a pretext to burn it all down.

Republicans’ budget bill earmarks a staggering $45 billion for immigrant detention centers. The biggest beneficiaries? Private prison companies like CoreCivic and GEO Group – who both donated hefty sums to Trump’s inauguration. Always follow the money.

This Memorial Day we remember the fallen. But also remember the disrespect the Republicans have for the not only the fallen but veterans and active service members. #memorialday
