I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.
What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?
I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

New, from me: Trump finalized his Schedule F policy, allowing him to remove job protections from career civil servants.
The new rule is dishonest and unmoored from reality in its effort to formalize the politicization of the federal government 🧵

By happenstance, we encountered both agents at this Speedway on January 13. Inside, Vazquez, center here, waited in line for the bathroom with others from Bovino's crew:

This wasn't the only incident where Vazquez has been seen aiming or firing directly at folks' heads (sometimes it's OC rounds, sometimes tear gas canisters) He did it in Chicago as well. Here he is on January 15 once again doing it to protesters and press outside Whipple:
