Reps Carter, Thompson, Pressley and Sen Markey, went to a detention center where Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk are being held w/out due process.
They didn’t just stand up for their own constituents—they stood together for all because there’s power in numbers.

Is any Democratic senator circulating a petition to get signatures of ten Dem senators (20% of the conference) to force a meeting of the conference? Will anyone step forward to challenge Schumer, and can some number of senators insist at such a meeting on a vote on whether to replace the leader?

This statement from AG Bondi is a disgrace. The judge did not “support” terrorists. He decided a case, based on facts and law, finding the requirements of the Alien Enemy Act lacking.

🚨BREAKING: It seems very clear that the Administration decided not to abide by the court's order. The question now is what will the judge do. Does he proceed with contempt or something short of that to defuse.
Upping the stakes is the fact that the AG and her senior staff signed this notice.

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.
