PSA: Do not let the Musk & Trump feud distract you from the fact that both want to rob us of basic healthcare, civil rights, & economic security—all while lining the pockets of billionaires. This childish feud is a distraction. Stay focused on ensuring we stop this horrific bill from becoming law.

Pretty much every detained imm. court session now includes someone who is subject to mandatory ICE detention under the Laken Riley Act for no better reason than they were once charged with extremely minor theft offenses. Even if those charges were dismissed. I'm never forgiving Dems for this
