Why are ICE agents masked to begin with? Our law enforcement officers shouldn’t be anonymous. Ever.

We are at a tipping point where the national debt is an existential crisis, yet the King-of-Bankruptcy is driving us right over the cliff with his Big Beautiful Bill. This bill should terrify everyone. We already have to restructure $9.2 trillion. This will add $7 trillion to that burden.

A plane to LIBYA on Wednesday?
This is Cruel & Unusual Punishment. Life in prison in a "HELLSCAPE," with no due process? Paying Libya with our tax dollars, while cutting dollars (and people) that could help babies, or clean national bathrooms.
THIS IS NOT AMERICA. This is immoral.

Headline from CNBC. As of this posting, the Dow is down 2,106. Many retired people, like my husband and I, who live off their investments, will now get to decide which meal to skip so they can save money.

🚨UPDATE: The judge has ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to be returned to the United States by Monday. This is great news for his family and our country.
In America, we have due process. This should never have happened and he must be returned NOW.

Today a federal judge in MD is hearing the case of Mr. Garcia — the Maryland dad whom the Trump admin refuses to bring back to the US after they admitted to deporting him due to an "administrative error."
What they're doing is unacceptable. Mr. Garcia has a right to due process.

It is extremely revealing that Corey Booker was able to stand for 25 hours and talk and make sense, and that every time the GOP open their mouths their utterances are insensible, incomprehensible, ungrounded in fact. Trust people who tell the truth. People who lie and fabricate are not trustworthy.

I am sure Bully-in-Chief could get Abrego Garcia home from El Salvador. Kristi Noem can fly back with her fancy Rolex and get him. To say "oh well" is unacceptable.

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky
