A Mexican woman was grabbed by ICE right after a c section.
She was suffering eclampsia and other complications, and her baby was alone in the NICU
They wouldn’t even give her a breast pump
She has a pending visa for victims of violent crimes… and then ICE committed a violent crime against her.

During the shutdown, the Senate approved adding $32B to Trump's already record breaking $1 trillion Pentagon budget.
The Senate still hasn't voted on extending ACA subsidies — which would cost $35B.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Bovino would see video evidence of him slamming someone to the ground and then, w a smirk, say he didn’t do it.
That’s not a one-off. That reflects a culture across all of law enforcement, abetted by the legal syst, that has created a sense of general impunity.
