Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

If Stephen Miller is still in the White House, that means the white nationalist gameplan is still all systems GO.

What we're witnessing is just window dressing and distractions.

Tom Homan is just as bad as Bovino, but less openly Nazi.

Keep your eyes wide open.

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) is planning to fly to Minneapolis tomorrow. Ro Khanna flew in today.

We've been telling Dems to do this last week. You have to be in Minnesota. You have to be with the people. You have to stand next to Walz and Frey.

Coordinated effort, leadership, and pushback.

Bye Bye Bovino. Now we must demand Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and Pam Bondi resign. We have the power.

The 50501 Movement is mobilizing for the ICE Out of Everywhere National Day of Action on January 31st.

We are also organizing the No Housing for ICE boycott, the #dontserveice movement, and the Primary Pro-ICE Dems campaign.

THIS. Strike while they're vulnerable.
The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

Go on offense. Press, pressure, blitz.

Lead.

The polls are on your side, Democrats, but they won't do it because they're not built for this. This is why we have to push them relentlessly.
The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

There is 0.0% chance that we will be fooled by a bs compromise in the senate on DHS funding. Package it, put a bow on it, try to sell it however you want. Not gonna work. If you aren’t sure about that, spend more time in your states with constituents.

Today, I am joining my colleagues in a lawsuit against the Trump-Vance Administration for illegally blocking us from doing our lawful duty of performing Congressional oversight of ICE detention facilities.

An unchecked executive branch is a danger to our democracy.

That's exactly right. They want to be secret police but we have the power to make sure they cannot operate in secret at all.

We can record and monitor every step they take in our city.

But we also have to then tell the world what we see.
"The secret police wants to conduct its attack in secret"

the task is to make such secrecy impossible
The observers weren't the only link on the chain. We needed media, politicians, and reporters to get the message out. The people who wanted to go it alone - please recognize that we relied on these institutions.

But it started with us, with the record we made, peacefully but relentlessly.

Exactly right.

Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.

Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.

Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.

Every possible angle.
They are wounded and flailing. Press the advantage.

This wrinkled walnut needs to retire and go spend the rest of his life with his imaginary friends. Gtfo, Chuck.
Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.

So pathetic and weak.
Senate Democrats plot strategy as DHS standoff deepens heading into shutdown week
Two sources who were on a Democratic caucus strategy call Sunday said Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told the group the message must be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL:

When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.

These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

As we await Senate action on the remaining spending bills, remember that Susan Collins could make a difference by stripping out DHS from the rest of the government funding bills. But she won't because she is just as MAGA as the rest of them.

When grand juries have been impaneled to hear testimony and evidence on the killings of Renee Good & Alex Pretti, then we can begin to talk about the Trump admin doing something tangible. Until that, all this is just PR damage control that only the extremely naive will fall for.

Don't let up. Don't forget. Don't give them a slap on the wrist.

The terror campaign in Minnesota is intentional and deliberate. ICE behaved as trained. This is what Republicans celebrated.

Promote accountability. Promise to impeach and prosecute or risk seeing this happen again and again.
