Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

If you treat the First Amendment like it only applies to you, the Second Amendment like it’s a personality, and the Fourteenth like it’s a typo, I don’t want to hear about how you’re a “constitutionalist.”

Why are folks mad at the working mom with kids on Medicaid and SNAP rather than companies like Walmart that refuse to pay her a living wage and provide health insurance?

Granted the competition is cutthroat, with Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Pamela Jo Bondi, Ted Cruz, and Marjorie Taylor Greene in contention, but I think a case can be persuasively made that Stephen Miller is the *most* reprehensible person in American politics.

Note from a human rights lawyer to members of the U.S. military: If directed to execute illegal orders, remember, declaring “I was just following orders” was not a valid defense during the Nuremberg trials, & it won’t be here either.

Your oath is to the US Constitution—not to a 34X convicted felon.

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful.

Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.
