1. The message, if you are a democrat, get off X now. There are many here who I applaud, but I know you are still on X! Full stop! Our lawmakers are finally coming to BlueSky, but hardly enough. I will seek them out on X. open.substack.com/pub/artistli...

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

ICE arrested & held a US-born citizen even 𝗔𝗙𝗧𝗘𝗥 a judge accepted his birth certificate as evidence of citizenship. They will do this to ANYONE. They don't need a reason. This is why we're all watching what happens with the people who were trafficked to El Salvador. 𝘞𝘦'𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵.

Senator, thank you for doing this. Thank you for letting his family see him and know he’s still alive. Your standing up for Kilmar and the rule of law is a model for all members of Congress, both sides of the aisle. Again, thank you. ~ An American in California

BREAKING: The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is firing 1,500 workers, and will soon have only about 200 remaining. That means the CFPB will be largely unable to carry out its mission of overseeing financial institutions and regulating companies that scam consumers.

The most relevant piece of information here is the R which Senator Murkowski keeps next to her name. She and three other Senators could take full control of the government out of the hands of the organization she herself describes as using terror tactics.

Let’s be clear… The data shows Biden deported more people than Trump—BUT with due process. Trump’s authoritarian regime is snatching people off the streets without IDs, harassing U.S. citizens with Hispanic last names, and showing up at schools to intimidate children.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it. Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids. Don’t let this go!!!

In America, the President is not a king. Our government cannot grab people off the streets, bypass the courts, and send them to foreign prisons like they did with Abrego Garcia.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen said he spoke with the American embassy in El Salvador today and they said that they’d never been told to in any way facilitate the court ordered return of Mr Abrego. That sure sounds like evidence of criminal contempt to me.

I just watched the Rachel @maddow.msnbc.com Interview with Daniel Berulis and I have never seen anything so compelling, brave & terrifying in my life. I'm afraid for this man, but so blown away by his courage. Rachel lays out the story so clearly. We have traitors in the government.

The Trump regime's ICE forces attacked a couple and smashed their window to abduct 29-year-old Juan Francisco Méndez, who hadn't committed a crime, while he waited for his lawyer. Regime forces can be seen attacking the civilians with a sledge hammer. #3E

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

The Supreme Court ordered this administration to facilitate Kilmar’s release. Marylanders and people all across the nation are calling on the President to bring him home. Enough is enough.

Putin doesn't respect Trump — he never has and he never will. If he did, he wouldn’t be bombing civilians in Sumy while Trump calls for cutting off aid to Ukraine. This is a deliberate strike on civilian infrastructure, once again targeting innocent people who just want to live free.
