So many videos are circulating of ICE agents acting with cruelty and aggression. Behavior that eerily mirrors the “domestic terrorism” they claim to oppose. No one is forcing them to act this way; it’s a choice.

I am so deeply ashamed of the human race, particularly the ones who think it’s funny to pick on the vulnerable.

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail.
Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

The EU doesn’t really do knee-jerk reactions.
And when it comes to trade wars, it prepares its case, builds a consensus among its members — and saves its most painful retaliation until last.

America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence.
Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

The Sunday shows are keeping it real—Schumer gave away the game for nothing.
Jen Psaki lays out what he could have done. He played this wrong on every level.
And with a Social Security, Medicare, and a tax cut fight coming, do you really want @schumer.senate.gov leading the fight?!

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
