At EWR, headed to D.C. where State Department is hosting their "Partnerships in Action" event to honor those who have stood up to help with the #AfghanEvac effort. Why does this feel like a farewell trip 😐

America isn't "headed for bankruptcy," no matter what South African Michael Scott says here.

But if he's really concerned about the federal government's balance sheet, he should urge Trump to raise taxes on individuals like him and businesses like the ones he owns. Problem solved.

39/ VERY IMPORTANT: we need to quickly normalize the idea that immigrants are people who make mistakes and resist the hard-right labeling of anyone who has ever been arrested as a "criminal." People are far more beautiful and complicated than that

Get ready, they are fully prepared to tell you with a straight face that concentration camps aren't concentration camps.

ICE already prioritizes people with criminal convictions so let’s be clear, if they want to ever get the high numbers they’ve been bragging about they’ll have to expand much more broadly to people without criminal convictions.
Notable - Mike Johnson on CNN walks back Trump's promise to deport as many as 20m people, saying "I'm not sure that's what's gonna happen. I think what the president is talking about is beginning w/the dangerous persons that we know are here. There are criminals, known criminals"
