Donald Trump deployed more than 700 active U.S. Marines — men and women trained in foreign combat, not domestic law enforcement. We honor their service and bravery. But we do not want our streets militarized by our own Armed Forces. Not in L.A. Not in California. Not anywhere.

The Trump Admin is trying to disappear almost 200 more people to El Salvador. This is a violation of due process. If we let Trump get away with disappearing immigrants under the Alien Enemies Act, there is nothing stopping him from disappearing U.S. citizens next. (1/2)

Trump is thoroughly enamored with the idea of sending American citizens to a hell-hole prison in El Salvador: “I call them homegrown criminals…We want to do it. I would love to do that.”

UPDATE: El Salvador’s brutal far-right dictator, Trump and Musk friend Nayib Bukele, has confirmed that he will never return any person sent to him from America. And Trump has confirmed he wants American citizens sent to El Salvador to die in a foreign gulag. This is a five-alarm fire for democracy.

📌All of this surrendering and capitulation by “marquee” Democrats points to a larger problem within the party itself. People are sick and tired of their sick and tired act. 📌Either you believe the grotesque Trump is an extreme threat to America and the values you claim to care about, or you don’t.

Let’s be clear: Trump’s plan to fine migrants $998 a DAY and steal their property is NOT about border security. It’s about pushing fear-based rhetoric—and it’s giving fascism.

Sen. Cory Booker breaks the record for the longest Senate floor speech, passing former Sen. Strom Thurmond's 24 hr, 18 min filibuster of the Civil Rights Act of 1957. As Sen. Booker neared the record, he invoked the late Rep. John Lewis and called on the Senate to get into "good trouble."

Donald Trump has illegally invoked The Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a wartime authority, to detain and deport Venezuelan immigrants he deems to be members of criminal gang Tren de Aragua. This was last invoked during WWII to justify the internment of Japanese-Americans.

WNY’s economy relies on our strong relationship with Canada – one we cannot afford to destroy. A tariff on Canada is just another name for a tax on the American consumer. I’ve been meeting with Canadian leaders to salvage this relationship and protect your hard-earned money.

Much of the chaos of the past few weeks can be understood as part of the Trump administration’s "central ideological project: restoring America’s traditional hierarchies of race and gender.” Call it the “Great Resegregation."
