NEW: McCarthyism returns to immigration law, as @USCIS announces that it will begin screening applicants for immigration benefits for "Anti-America ideologies or activities." The term has no prior precedent in immigration law and its definition is entirely up to the Trump admin.

Just considering how Trump gets so worked up when reporters say, "Epstein!"
Just thinking if we all called our Congress folk and said, "Epstein!"
In every protest, they held up signs that said, "Epstein!"
Every public appearance, hold up a sign that says, "Epstein!"
Just imagine his reaction! 🤣

Hillary called them “deplorables” and the GOP acted like she’d committed war crimes. Meanwhile, they just voted to rip healthcare from 20 million Americans like it’s a group bonding activity. Turns out “deplorable” was the polite version.

Every single Republican now owns the fact that 17 MILLION people will lose health care.

This is what I’m so worried about
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
