ICE, HSI, & CBP are detaining people without cause aka kidnapping, refusing to ID themselves, and violating constitutional rights.
We must protect our people.

Share these graphics.

Help our communities know their rights—and use them.

DeLAURO: Are you planning to break the law by impounding appropriated funds?

RFK Jr: If you appropriate the funds, I'm going to spend them

D: We have! You're cutting the NIH by $18b. Congress appropriated those funds. How can you justify cutting billions from the biomedical research budget?

This is an ethics violation of enormous magnitude.

They are telling us who they are, and people just refuse to believe them.

This is nuanced, there isn’t a one size fits all narrative - it’s designed that way. Confusion and chaos helps their cause. As for RFK jr - he seems to be following a playbook from the 1930-40’s

This guy gets it.

Brad Schimel is the complete opposite of what the WI Supreme Court needs. He supports banning abortion and sued to overturn the #AffordableCareAct.

We can’t let him on the court - vote for Judge Susan Crawford by April 1st.

Coincidence??
You know how sometimes you come across a puzzle that’s hard to complete?

This is not one of those times.

@schumer.senate.gov’s brother, Robert, is a partner at the infamous Paul Weiss law firm. You know, the one that just caved to Trump.

Now where have we heard that before?

STEP DOWN CHUCK

New — Sen. Chuck Schumer's brother, Robert B. Schumer, is a partner at the powerhouse law firm Paul Weiss that caved and agreed to $40 million in pro bono legal services to Trump.

Bob Schumer chaired the firm's corporate department from 2008-2020.

A climate scientist on the melting Arctic:
“The sound of going to Greenland has changed. We used to have quite extensive sea ice cover, which meant that we didn’t have any waves. The sound of breaking waves wasn’t there 10 years ago, and that’s very obvious now."
