Exactly right. Why should we respect a president who doesn’t respect the constitution he swore an oath to uphold?

Our politicians are speaking for us in Chicago: Homeland Security needs to get the hell out and leave us alone.
Federal agents pepper-sprayed a baby girl in Little Village this weekend. There's no limit to what these thugs will do.
To make Chicago safe again, we need ICE and CBP to get the hell out of our city.

The people arresting these hardworking men have never known real “labor” like these innocents being detained. Just because you were born on one side of a border does not make you right. CBP/ICE are perpetrators of oppression, abuse, and crimes against humanity.

Unacceptable. There are 189,000 people in my district who will be paying 50–300% more for the same, and in many cases worse, healthcare.
I won’t do that to the people I represent. I’m a NO on this “deal.”

Just like the lack of outrage over Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been held in solitary for months.
