Hands off Arizona, you bastards.

By the way, FBI, how’s that intensive search for Nancy Guthrie going? We haven’t seen Party Boy Patel around Tucson recently, popping up on TV. Thank heavens.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

AZ friends! With the primary date change our Dem candidates need more help than ever to get enough signatures to get on the ballot. Voters can sign online using the Secretary of State’s secure E-Qual system. THIS is how we make this madness stop.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Now to get these young people to the polls!

Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration.

Congress can:
- Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage)
- Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes
- Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same
- Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction

It can be done.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
1-23-26

Rep Alma Hernandez released the following statement today after ICE agents conducted a stop & arrest near an elementary school near her home in South Tucson. “This morning, ICE conducted enforcement actions across the street from my home. I am in communication with the passenger who was not arrested but watched her three family members be taken. All of this happened in front of an elementary school while children were outside playing. This kind of recklessness is unacceptable. My neighbors called me to alert me of what was taking place. The passenger told me they were on their way to her doctor's appointment. Her husband was driving & noticed a car was tailgating them. He did not know why or who it was, ICE turned on the lights & when they pulled over, they asked why and were told that they were just conducting a 'routine operation’ & that they simply were just 'checking.' This family was not breaking any law. In fact this family is currently in their asylum process as they are from Venezuela they all had proper documentation to show they are legally here while their case is being processed & her husband the driver has already been granted asylum. ICE was made aware of this & still took them. This puts families, children, & entire neighborhoods like mine at risk, & demonstrates a blatant disregard for public safety. These actions do not make our communities safer. They terrorize neighborhoods, tear families apart & undermine public trust especially when carried out by masked agents operating with no transparency or accountability. What happened today is exactly why so many people in Tucson are living in fear: Fear of detention, deportation, & criminalization simply for existing. I stand in full solidarity with our Tucson community, particularly our immigrant neighbors who are being targeted, profiled, & dehumanized. Despite repeated claims by elected officials that only
'dangerous criminals' are being targeted, that is not the reality

Statement from Rep. Alma Hernandez saying that ICE took a family who are currently in the asylum process from her neighborhood in South Tucson this morning. Rep. Hernandez says this also occurred in front of an elementary school as children were outside.

Tim Steller's column: Code red for Tucson, blue cities to resist federal assault The immigration raids in blue cities around the country are part of a broader effort at repression against people who didn't vote for Trump.

Column: With federal agents rioting in Democrat-run cities, there's only one answer for residents of Tucson: Blanket resistance against immigration operations. These agents are the tip of the spear of a federal campaign to punish cities and state that don't support Trump. tucson.com/news/local/s...

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.
