THEY DID IT. EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT just voted on an amendment to DEFUND ICE (rescind the BBB slush fund that keeps ICE open during a shutdown.) This amendment failed, but it shows broad support! KEEP CALLING and make it a demand to vote for the DHS funding bill!!
👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

Tonight at 8 PM ET, when Don Lemon goes live as an independent journalist, it will be the biggest moment of his career. And it’s telling for two reasons. He’s no longer tethered to legacy media, and Trump and his administration tried to silence him.

A glaring absurdity in the EPSTEIN files-names of rapists appear; crimes are articulated; & these filthy old white men are penetrating kids with their fingers to measure and rate “tightness”.
What’s absurd? We are hashing out rape & assault as casually as discussing Taylor Swift’s latest hit.

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.
