In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.
He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.
At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.
Wael died on Friday at age 30.
ICE caused his death.
They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Do people realize how wide Minneapolis streets are? Filling the streets like they did today takes real numbers. Media may focus on the shrinking minority who like this administration, but they're making themselves less relevant by the day.

I will not vote for any budget deal that gives more power and funding to Donald Trump so he can make life more dangerous and more expensive for American families.
Congress must restrict spending on forever wars overseas and stop ICE’s terror here at home.

We’re living under a #RepublicanHealthcareDisaster. My health insurance cost went up 21%! I pay more every single month, because they cared more about tax breaks for billionaires than our health or our lives.

Perhaps the Prime Minister missed when the felon called our soldiers "suckers" and "losers" or when he attacked John McCain for being a prisoner of war.
Cadet Bonespurs has NEVER respected our troops yet he expects total obediance from them.

UK PM Keir Starmer reacts to Cadet Bone Spurs claiming that allied troops stayed back behind the front lines in Afghanistan to avoid combat: “457 of our armed services lost their lives, many more were injured. So I consider Trump’s remarks to be insulting and apalling.”

Let’s be clear: ICE is now one of the wealthiest law enforcement agencies in this country, and they continue to prove they are ineffective and unqualified.

FWIW:
Golden is retiring.
The filing deadline has passed in NC; Davis is the only Dem running.
The filing deadline has passed in TX; Gonzalez & Cuellar both have primary opponents.
Gillen has several Dem opponents as well, as does Perez.
If you want to primary Suozzi, you still have until 3/30.

Supporting violent, masked state police is inexcusable, especially after all the videos have shown them to be domestic terrorists who constantly ride roughshod over both people and the Constitution.
