When I saw Liam at the Dilley Detention Center, something was clearly wrong. He was lethargic, not eating, and depressed.

Thankfully, Liam and his dad are back home in Minneapolis with their family.

No child should ever endure this. We will not stop until this cruelty ends.

If Pamela Jo Bondi's DOJ is willing to release documents about Epstein making snuff/torture films, I can't imagine what's revealed in the files DOJ deems too incendiary for Donald to release.

What do these corporations have in common?

-Amazon
-AT&T
-Home Depot
-Microsoft
-Palantir

They all reaped billions in tax breaks from Trump's Big Ugly Bill — and are actively collaborating with ICE's deportation machine.

Always follow the money.

Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.

Do not forget who is profiting from cruelty and human suffering.

The Trump admin is snatching people off the streets.
Killing protestors
Threatening invasion of allies
Seizing ballots.

And now arresting journalists.

This is Trump’s America.

As ICE itself would say, "Boo hoo."
What's morale like at CBP & ICE right now? New survey data are damning.
*21% of CBP respondents (9% of ICE respondents) believe their agencies' political leaders maintain high standards of integrity.
*Only 23% at CBP (18% at ICE) feel confident they could report illegal acts without retribution

Donald Trump said anybody who disagrees with him will never be Fed Chair. Kevin Warsh – who cared more about helping Wall Street after the 2008 crash than millions of unemployed Americans – has apparently passed the loyalty test.

Of course the president will do anything to avoid talking about his economic failures.

Press conferences and social media posts have not changed conditions on the ground. Another person taken today off of Central Ave and Northeast middle school had to delay letting kids leave because of ICE presence in the area. The federal government continues to make our community less safe.
