I live smack dab in the middle of (R) central. Do NOT mistake the bullshit “support” for ICE you see on social media that appears to be coming from R's, as something legit. I don’t hear many Republicans in real life saying “I support ICE and what they are doing.” Most, that I encounter…are repulsed.

Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

Ossoff: "There's a wickedness to the program. I don't know, pastor, where it is in scripture that it says deny care to the sick, take from those with the least to give to those with the most, violate the house of worship to hunt down the refugee. Where in the scripture are those lessons taught?"

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

If your representative is voting to cut health care while giving tax breaks to billionaires, they should at least be willing to stand in front of you and explain why.

Attempting to criminalize the actions of an independent public servant, Fed Chair Jay Powell, for the sin of acting independently is an outrage. It's bad economics, bad politics, bad for the rule of law, bad for the public sector, bad for American credibility and bad for Americans.
