BREAKING: No deal on ICE reforms, DHS shutdown is set to occur at midnight

SLOTKIN: So the fact we have ICE agents saying out loud to people they're trying to arrest that 'we're gonna put you in a database,' they are making that up?

Rand Paul to ICE officials on Pretti's killing: "Because people within the government made conclusions immediately that he was a terrorist and an assassin, people aren't believing that it's gonna be an honest investigation ... there has to ultimately be repercussions ... it's inexcusable."

Hanne Engan was deprived of insulin in ICE detention.

She has Type 1 diabetes & needs insulin to survive.

They deprived her of urgent medical attention & she almost died.

This isn't a one off. This administration is torturing immigrants to get them to sign away their rights.🧵

As I said in my State of the District, the chaos, cruelty, and cuts from Trump have made the past year a long one.
 
In NE Ohio, we have felt the pressure from every side.
 
But pressure makes diamonds – and we are not backing down.

So, since the Felon wants his name slapped all over everything, we should ALWAYS refer to the Trump-Epstein files.

Always.

It’s the Epstein Administration.

No wonder Bondi spent the entire hearing screeching and deflecting.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

Hey there Pam Bondi if you have nothing to hide why were you tracking what congressmen were searching on the Epstein files?

Why uh…. Why…. Why so nervous?

Maybe I missed something but it seems like the only people that have been ‘found guilty’ are Epstein and Maxwell. Who else (donors & politicians) is he talking about??

JFC. Epstein's tentacles are everywhere. All need to be scrutinized & held accountable. What shocked me in the hearing is when Bondi promised to talk w/the MOC, after the hearing who had privacy concerns, but didn't offer to speak to the women standing behind her. A fixer like Ruemmler. EVIL.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

None of what’s happening is a surprise. When you put a pathologically dishonest, cruel, idiotic, psychopathic, anti-democratic, corrupt, lawless fascist in the White House who’s humanly capable of acting ONLY in his own interests, then bad, un-American shit is gonna happen.

❗️Finnish President Alexander Stubb stated:

Putin wanted to make Ukraine Russian — it has become European.
He wanted to prevent the expansion of NATO — and Finland and Sweden joined the Alliance.
He wanted to keep our defense spending at a low level — and now it is rising to 5%.

The Finnish President shows no fear nor any appeasement. If we only had an American President who could and would make such a lucid and strong statement.

I’m currently writing a book about the attempted Nazi demonstration in Skokie in 1977. This is indistinguishable from how American Nazis talked in public.
Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.
