Iwo Jima. We bombed the hell out of Mt.Suribachi for days. The dead Marines on the beach showed how ineffective it was.

A Running List of Policies Rejected From the Republican Megabill (Gift Article) So far, the parliamentarian has determined that dozens of provisions do not pass muster to be included.

The Senate Parliamentarian has now rejected *47* policies from the Senate GOP's budget bill.

Much of this is due to arguments presented by Senate Democrats.

Check this GIFT ARTICLE for the full, running list.

As a physician, I can’t stay silent. $1T in Medicaid cuts, provider tax caps, and work requirements will cost lives. This isn’t reform. It’s a heist.

There are widespread reports of ICE agents abducting people while masked, without warrants or identification. Due to recent events, we strongly advise: do not open your door or car for anyone you don’t know. That’s the message. No need to elaborate.

Rep. Jackson and I were just denied entry to the South Loop ICE facility in Chicago.

We went to ask questions and perform congressional oversight of potential illegal ICE activities as Donald Trump's administration targets immigrant communities.

More to come.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Brad Lander kidnapped by ICE agents

Brad Lander kidnapped by ICE agents

Brad Lander wasn't detained by legitimate federal agents.

He was kidnapped by Trump's plainly clad thugs with guns.

Jeans, a hoodie and a mask is a common gas station robbery uniform.

Start telling it straight, media.

A child being taken from their parents like this is helping anyone. In fact it is creating generational trauma.

Pritzker and Newsom are showing Democrats how to fight backβ€”calling out extremism, defending rights, and refusing to stay silent. This is leadership. No more playing it safe. #StandUp #DemocratsFightBack

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

SEN. PADILLA: β€œSaying I lunged is a lie, but that’s par for the course for this administration… I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take. So I raise my voice to ask a question.”
