I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Horrible news for Wisconsin
I know there's a lot going on but this is a huge deal: Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin will stop providing abortions next week in an apparent bid to keep accepting Medicaid. The GOP budget law "defunds" PP affiliates that offer abortion care after October 1
We broke the story on @autonomynews.co

I've never been prouder of my Dutch ancestry than I am today.
Netherlands Queen Máxima is the wife of King Willem-Alexander.
She became queen consort upon his accession to the throne in 2013.
Real Queens know when they are standing next to a fake, tacky, wannabe king. 👑
#Respect 🇳🇱

AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.
