They’re chasing quotas, not criminals!
The former head of Chicago’s immigration court, fired by Trump, is finally speaking out. A new lawsuit accuses the administration of unlawfully targeting documented immigrants who were already showing up to court, just so ICE could hit arrest quotas.

1. Trump’s strike on Iran was unauthorized & unconstitutional
2. Congress must reassert its war powers—immediately
3. I support the War Powers Resolutions in the House and Senate
No war with Iran. Full stop.
