Cary López is a U.S. citizen. ICE agents violently detained her while she was visibly pregnant, pushing her hard enough to make her lose balance. This isn’t “law enforcement.” This is state violence. Against women. Against citizens.👇

My husband @robertcooper-us.bsky.social and I just returned from our youngest daughter’s destination wedding in Aruba. Her lifelong dream was to get married on a beach on a private island, and she got her wish! 🏝️🥰 Walking our daughter down the aisle was one of the greatest pleasures of our lives! ❤️

Why is ICE arresting employees but not employers? DOJ policy is to charge the most culpable people. The employers would seem to qualify.

Instead of using this money to fund, say, the National Weather Service right before hurricane season, they're using it to send Marines to Los Angeles. THIS is waste and abuse.

The fact an American President got members of the military to boo American citizens should send chills through everyone. There's going to be a rump of the military that's prepared to do whatever he wants.

Antisemitism is very real in our world, the attacks in D.C. and Boulder showed that. But it is not antisemitic to say the Palestinian people deserve food, water and medicine. Dignity is not political, it is humane. It's never too late to do the right thing.

Right off the gate #JayLies by creating a false sense that Americans don't believe scientists/researchers have best interest of public in mind. NOPE.

Trump told Americans he’d focus on deporting criminals. Instead, he’s set quotas that shift the focus to people with legal status and removing their protections. The Republican budget bill gives this effort more resources and tools, encouraging more dangerous crackdowns. 🧵

The indictment brought by the Trump Administration’s Department of Justice against @replamonica.bsky.social are clearly politically motivated and aimed at punishing representatives for doing their job. I stand with Rep. McIver and call on this DOJ to drop these baseless allegations immediately.
