While we're at it - it would be nice if they needed to show proper ID and state exactly why they are there and where they're taking folks.
I want a law passed in Congress that FORBIDS ANY law enforcement, ICE, DHS, or CBP from hiding their faces.

I cannot stop thinking about this woman & the community that tried to keep her family together. We are not powerless. Call your reps, raise your voice, get her reunited with her loved ones. Families belong together. And yes: under this lawless regime, if they can do it to her, they can do it to you.

Yes … THE Project 2025, which Donald Trump pretended to know nothing about. He lied.
It’s crystal clear, this is the blueprint for the coming administration.
