"You don't liberate people at the barrel of a gun. Have we learned nothing from Iraq or Afghanistan? All we seem to have learned is from Gaza. Israel has learned that you can bomb hospitals & schools with impunity."

Obama: Every day you wake up to things you just didn’t think were possible. Each day we’re told by those in high office to fear each other. Everywhere we see greed and bigotry being celebrated, and bullying and mockery masquerading as strength.

Our campaign is surging. And Donald Trump should be scared shitless.

Because when I’m in Congress, his presidency is over.

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Holy shit! This is a whole ass shit show. This is an American woman living in the UAE. My country is being run by complete imbeciles right now. Not to mention how badly they’re lying to us with little amount of information they are putting out. I’m just ashamed. #TrumpsEpicFailure

The Trump administration doesn’t want you to remember that Tom Homan was the architect of family separation during Trump’s first term.

πŸ“Œ Homan publicly advocated for separating families as a deterrent and repeatedly defended the policy on TV and before Congress.

Parents are afraid to send their kids to school, classrooms sit half-empty, children are being taken to detention facilities. We’ve crossed a line.

I stood with education leaders to discuss the growing harm federal actions are causing to children, families, and our schools.

Garcia: I want to remind the American public of Stephen Miller. There's probably no single person in this government that has done more damage and more harm to people across this country than this man right here. It's our job to hold him responsible

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

Protestors in LA projected anti-ICE video onto ICE detention facility. This is a clear message of resistance.

Share this widely to support this movement.

Bonvino:
Look, Dana, they're trying to portray Border Patrol agents and ICE agents as Gestapo, Nazi, and many other words.
Stephen:
Yes, do not compare ICE or Border Patrol agents to the Nazis. That's an unfair comparison. The Nazis were willing to show their faces.

Tim Kaine is a NO on the funding bill πŸ’₯

Every Democrat should be a NO on funding ICE’s cruelty, family separation, abuse, and disappearances.
