I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Thank you @ossoff.bsky.social for getting it! This is what I’ve been Paul Revering about on my pinned 🧵. Ossoff is on it.
Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

I am introducing the Cut It Out And This Time I Really Mean It bill. It provides an additional $57 billion to the murder goons but they will agree to wear business casual Monday through Thursday and if they do any murders they have to put a dollar in this jar.

An extraordinary document. Read it.

“Attached to this order is an appendix that identifies 96 court orders that ICE has violated in 74 cases. … ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”

“Whether it is the president's deranged rants attacking me, my family, and my community, or whether it is this deranged person showing up trying to assault me—they want to intimidate me from public life. And I am not one to be intimidated," says Rep. Ilhan Omar after she was attacked at a town hall.

Someone should play the video of Fátima Lucas Henrique’s screams as she was kidnapped by federal agents on the way to her early morning nursing shift to Sen Susan Collins wherever she shows her face. This is happening to Mainers on her watch.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

A good time to repost this, Ilhan Omar is awesome
A mutual aid organizer in Minneapolis told us that Ilhan Omar pops in to help with the foodbank.

No press, no photos, she just shows up and asks the organizers where she should pitch in.

I don’t know what he said or what he sprayed from that syringe, but Omar was squared up & ready to handle him.

And then continued her talk. I don’t know what’s in the water in Minnesota, but these folks have been underestimated.Later I’m sure Omar was shaking & maybe shed a tear, but..

Look, if you had a party scheduled at your house, and the pipes broke and the floor was covered in raw sewage, you’d tell your friends not to come over.

In that spirit: world, skip the World Cup until we get this sewage worked out. And don’t be too sure about the Olympics.

A Trump-appointed district judge described the conditions of ICE detainees with no criminal history held in a temporary cell in the Central Islip federal courthouse on Long Island for days — putrid, cramped, inhumane and unlawful.
