He Came to the U.S. to Support His Sick Child. He Was Detained. Then He Disappeared.
Like most of the more than 230 Venezuelan men deported to a Salvadoran prison, José Manuel Ramos Bastidas had followed U.S. immigration rules. Then Trump rewrote them.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

I know you’re new to Congress, Mr. Fine, but we don’t call our colleagues terrorists here. It just makes you look idiotic. At a time when MN Democrats have been targeted for assassination by a right-wing extremist, your rhetoric is seriously dangerous. Apologize now.

The builders behind Alligator Alcatraz and other detention sites are top DeSantis donors.
They scored no-bid or “emergency” contracts worth tens of millions—while funneling cash into his political machine.

NEW: the Trump admin has moved to terminate TPS for Honduras and Nicaragua, covering over 50,000 people
Both of these designations date back to 1999, meaning Trump wants to strip legal status from people here legally who have had a background check every 18 months for the last 26 years.

The 4 Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research labs (under the NOAA umbrella) that would close under the Trump administration's proposed 2026 budget.
This would effectively end Colorado's status as a global leader in climate research. An absolute travesty.
