"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.
This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

And here she is again, WA’s darling “Democrat” breaking with the party to support DHS funding for ICE, because apparently South Washington’s priorities include federally funding the abduction of 5 year olds. SLOW CLAP 👏
As a member of the Appropriations Committee, I worked with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to make sure that Southwest Washington’s priorities made it into these bills.

As the bill moves to the Senate, Democrats have a responsibility to draw a line. Putting actual guardrails on ICE is the bare minimum here. Allowing Trump’s brutal secret police force to operate with essentially a blank check is unacceptable.

Acc to @npr.org ‘s own reporting, 1% of its funding comes from CBP. About 32% of its funding comes from individual contributions (Pro Publica 2023). Yet they thought it was a good idea to let @steveinskeep.bsky.social interview Steve fucking Bannon on air, twice? Make it make sense. 🤔 ⚖️
Trump says he's ending federal funding for NPR and PBS. They say he can't
In an executive order, President Trump directs the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to stop funding NPR and PBS. They say he can't. PBS chief Paula Kerger calls it "blatantly unlawful".

Over the last two months, ICE has ramped up detentions of international students, visa holders, and green card residents — not because they’ve committed any crimes, but because of their First Amendment-protected speech.
This is an attack on dissent. Period.

BREAKING: SCOTUS orders the government not to remove from the country, for the time being, any of the individuals slated for possible deportation to El Salvador. The vote is apparently 7-2, with Justices Thomas and Alito in dissent

The Trump-Supreme Court battle is not really the crisis.
The crisis is here now. Trump is enacting an insidious coordinated attack on our institutions of democratic accountability, designed to crater democracy before next fall.
1/ A long 🧵to explain the plan & how we stop it.

Yesterday, we sent a historically big message to Trump, Musk, and the GOP — and we also sent a signal to all those who agree with us but have spent the last few months feeling shaken, hopeless, and afraid. #handsoff
