Ilhan Omar: "It's completely disgusting. These are Americans that he is calling garbage ... it's also really important for us to remember that this kind of hateful rhetoric and this level of dehumanizing can lead to dangerous actions by people who listen to the president."

Himes: "I think it's really important this video by made public ... it's important people see what it looks like when the full force of the US military is turned on two guys who are clinging to a piece of wood and about to go under just so they have a visceral feel for what it is we're doing"

HIMES: What it raises is what happens when an apparently good man like Admiral Bradley is placed in a context where he knows that if he countermands an order he's uncomfortable with it's very likely he'll be fired

In Massachusetts and across the country, the Trump admin is turning the pursuit of the American Dream into an American Nightmare. This is wrong, this is immoral, and this is exactly why we must continue to fight back against Trump’s racist anti-immigrant agenda.

Toledo-Martinez answered a knock at his door to find a federal immigration agent posing as a construction worker, who claimed to have hit his car.

He went outside and another agent released the dog, which bit him repeatedly. Now Patty Murray calls for his release.

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown.

Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

Trump's claim that ICE is only going after violent and dangerous criminals is false. Instead they've terrorized communities and caused kids to stay home from school, all while less than 30% of those they've arrested have been convicted of a crime.
