Garcia: The oversight committee and Democrats launched our official oversight immigration enforcement dashboard. The dashboard that allows our committee to investigate and document and archive for the public record, possible misconducts by federal agents, ICE, and DHS.

Let’s go!
So I’ve made it official folks: I’ve filed the paperwork to run for Governor of Alabama. It’s time to remind this state of who we are and what we can accomplish together.

I’m done funding cruelty. Target cuts DEI, Amazon bankrolls this administration, and Home Depot lets ICE terrorize workers on their lots.
My money stays with small shops and people-first businesses. How about you? #WeAintBuyingIt

Reminding people in the military and law enforcement of their oath and duty to the Constitution is only a bad thing to someone who wants to rip up the Constitution.

You have to follow the link to Twitter to see Vindman's actual statement. He calls on Trump to release the transcript of his call with MBS after Khashoggi murder. But he makes pretty clear that Trump gave MBS a big high five after he ordered JK sawed into parts. x.com/RepVindman/s...

Stephen Miller is scared because Democrats are calling on U.S. military service members and intelligence professionals to honor their oaths to the Constitution.

Miller knows they can’t do that and enforce Trump’s unconstitutional agenda - which Miller himself has shaped.

While Democrats whisper about avoiding another female nominee, @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social suggests the opposite: "I really wonder whether, you know, they shouldn't just nominate Spanberger and Sherrill ... They'll win 40 states."

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

As Karoline Leavitt concludes her press briefing and walks off, @andrewfeinberg.com asks: "What was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?"

She did not respond.
