Dr. Clark is mounting a strong challenge against David Scott, a conservative Democrat in a safe blue district who didn’t even bother to vote in the 2024 election. While voting for Kamala Harris was too much effort for him, Scott did join Republicans to formally express gratitude to ICE months ago.

We’re a few days away from the DHS funding deadline, which means Democrats have real leverage to stop the regime’s secret police.
Demand that Democrats refuse to fund DHS without ironclad limits on ICE and CBP, actual accountability for abuses, and clear guardrails to stop raids and intimidation.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

One plane will fly from Mesa AZ to Denver to Las Vegas and back to Mesa.
Monday, they will start painting the six “white tail” planes back in Avelo livery.
Avelo says they were losing money on the contract 😬

Why are so many undocumented immigrants being held in detention for so long instead of being deported?
Simple. The billionaires who own the detention centers get paid for keeping people here. They don't get paid for people who get deported.
It's not about the law, it's about taking your money.
