20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

HA! How much is Stephen Miller a propagandist? He’s saying the building in Chicago raided by DHS, where children were zip-tied and citizens dragged out, was “full of Tren de Aragua terrorists.”

Even DHS’s own account claims just TWO gang members total — and even that is a highly suspect claim!
Stephen Miller just said that Chicago ICE raid was one of the most successful law enforcement operations ever. I asked Pritzker to respond.

"If this was Pinochet’s Chile, if this was Argentina under authoritarian rule, maybe you’d call it successful," he said. 2/

We are grateful to @BishopSeitz @DylanCorbett23 @HopeBorder and the El Paso delegation for sharing their humanitarian hopeful message, and from the migrants themselves. We are honored that footage from "Running To Stand Still" was included in this beautiful video.

I had the pleasure of talking with Bishop Seitz before an event we were both speaking at, and of listening to him speak on immigration. He's a true humanitarian who believes in the fundamental dignity of human beings. Also, really nice guy!

The Trump administration’s continued escalated attacks on this country’s democracy to push their anti-immigrant and mass deportation agenda have only intensified in recent weeks.

This is shattering. The Oloffson wasn't just a hotel. Not even just a landmark or historic site. It was a spiritual home for thousands of people over the years, Haitian and foreigner, including me.
Hotel Oloffson is gone. The iconic Port-au-Prince gingerbread was set alight and burned to ash last night. #Haiti

“They don’t want to deport their uncle or their wife or their brother-in-law,” Woolford said. “... Some of the language people have used is: ‘I joined to defend my country, and that’s really important to me — but No. 1 is family, and this is actually a threat to my family.’ ”
