I honestly can’t remember any prior AG being this overtly disrespectful in a Congressional hearing.

They really think they’re never going to be in the minority.

Maybe I memory holed it, but personal attacks on members of Congress during testimony just seems so out of bounds.

Bad Bunny isn't an immigrant.

This shit is cooked through. 150 years of being a newspaper and now you're a 4chan comment thread.

Tweet by Rick Wilson in response to someone railing against the Virginia Dems redistricting map

"Today, I had the honor of standing with Governor Abigail Spanberger as she signed three constitutional amendments advancing healthcare freedom, voting rights, and marriage equality, officially sending them to the ballot for a statewide referendum. For the past two years, Virginia Democrats did the work passing these amendments to ensure Virginians would have the opportunity to weigh in themselves. This November, Virginians will vote on these three amendments during the midterm elections and decide what their Constitution should say about freedoms, equality, and opportunity. We trust the people of the Commonwealth to make the choice that is right for them and their neighbors. Additionally, Governor Spanberger signed a constitutional amendment to give voters a say in protecting our democracy. The Governor said it best: "In the face of efforts across the country to change maps, Virginia is moving forward with this temporary and responsive effort to redistrict." Now it is up to the voters to decide in a referendum on April 21." - VA Senate Majority Leader Scott Surovell

Immigrants commit fewer crimes.

Immigrants pay taxes.

Immigrants contribute over $2 trillion to the economy.

The problem isn't immigrants.

The problem is the bigots.

The fact that both are quite experienced—8 years and 12 years with CBP—is yet more evidence that CBP should be abolished and all of its agents fired. There's no way to "reform" or "retrain" that, it's just a violent gang with badges.

I genuinely have no idea how to convey this to the American people, but I think the biggest impediment to any kind of immigration reform is that people are convinced that "legal" and "illegal" are immutable, intrinsic categories instead of a rapidly-shifting arbitrary constellation of regulations.

Scoreboard showing a 39-0 vote for the bills on the uncontested calendar today, which included SB 97.

C. To receive a "Hunger-Free Campus Food Pantry" designation and receive funding under the Program, a public institution of higher education or an eligible private institution of higher education shall establish an: 1. An on-campus food pantry or partner with a local food bank to provide information to students about food services in the local area. All food provided from the on-campus food pantry shall be free of charge, and no student shall be required to demonstrate food insecurity to access such pantry. However, an institution may require that an individual show a valid student identification card to access food from the on-campus food pantry; and 2. If such institution offers a meal swipe program or equivalent student meal swipe plan, a student meal credit sharing program, whereby students may voluntarily donate unused meal plan credits to be distributed for use by other students at campus dining halls or at its on-campus food pantry, or to be used to support its on-campus food pantry. Each institution shall develop procedures for such meal plan credit donation program, including procedures for how a student may donate his unused meal plan credits and how a student in need can apply to receive any donated meal plan credits.

My fourth bill of session passed the Senate of Virginia this afternoon: SB 97, for four-year colleges/universities to include a meal swipe donations program in addition to a food pantry in order to qualify for the Hunger-Free Campus designation, which provides them thousands of dollars.

This morning, I signed on to Articles of Impeachment against DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.

Secretary Noem & DHS employees have systemically violated the rights and privacy of Americans, terrorized our cities, and obstructed Congress.

They think the American people are stupid.

It's been 2 days since the killing of Alex Pretti & this Admin continues to lie about what we all saw on video.

Americans are horrified & don't want their tax dollars funding this brutality.

Not another dime to this lawless operation.

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

The White House called Alex Pretti an “assassin.”

They called Renee Good a “domestic terrorist.”

And their investigations are shutting out local officials.

They tell Americans not to believe ‘their lying eyes.’

But no one can believe a word they say.

So, you can carry firearm across state lines to a protest and if you shoot two people Kash Patel will advise you to sue the media and the Biden Administration. If you are in your home state and never draw your gun, and get shot by ICE Kash Patel says its "illegal" to carry a gun to a protest. 🙄

❤️❤️❤️

Just staggered by the complete moral void of not even *pretending* to wait for more information before pivoting to “the opponent of the state deserved it.” It is so insanely depraved. Soulless.

Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and Minneapolis resident, was murdered by ICE today. He was a lawful gun owner. Our government saw his Second Amendment right as a threat and executed him in the streets.

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: If there was ever a moment for libertarians and conservatives to step up and join the rest of us, we’re in it. Americans have to unite and stop this descent from a freedom-loving nation into the kind of place where masked, militarized government agents are sent to politically noncompliant areas to roam the streets, terrorize civilians, and deploy violence with impunity.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

It has been confirmed that Alex was a lawful gun owner and did not threaten ICE with a weapon. Early video reports indicate the weapon was taken by ICE and shots were then fired to execute him.

Here’s one video shared with us of the state-ordered execution. The man was beaten in the head with a gun, shot once, then shot five more times while on the ground. State-ordered executions continue.

Live: Man shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis this morning, police chief says A video appears to shows federal agents wrestling a man to the ground then shooting him. The Department of Homeland Security said the man was armed with a gun.

This has to stop.

Another person shot and killed.

Another senseless loss of life.

We need ICE agents out of our cities.

Right now. www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi...

Why are they sending witnesses to Whipple?

WHY ARE THEY SENDING WITNESSES TO WHIPPLE?

Nine shots? NINE SHOTS

Another brutal killing by Trump’s ICE agents.

Trump, Vance, Noem, Miller, & the whole morally depraved crew have blood on their hands. These killings are happening at their direction. They must be held accountable.

Congress must cut-off funding for these heinous acts NOW!

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.
