Four Key Takeaways From Yesterday’s Primary Elections & Capitol Hill Testimony

americasvoice.org/press_releas...

Four Key Takeaways From Yesterday’s Primary Elections & Capitol Hill Testimony - America's Voice Washington, DC — Below are four takeaways and implications from yesterday’s busy news day: According to Vanessa Cárdenas, Executive Director of America’s Voice: “In both primary elections and in Capit...

Yesterday offered more compelling evidence why Americans are broadly rejecting the Trump administration’s cruelty, chaos, and misplaced priorities.

“Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Tuesday she plans to review the case of a Sacramento mother deported within 24 hours of arriving for her green card appointment last month.”

What is there to look into? BRING HER BACK

Today, I questioned DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and shared the stories of four U.S. citizens who’ve been wrongfully detained by ICE under her leadership.

She simply doesn’t care that they are illegally detaining U.S. citizens.

new from @tusk81.bsky.social:

Women have always been at the heart of movements for justice, and that includes the more than 23 million immigrant women.

"This #WomensHistoryMonth, we celebrate the immigrant women who continue to better our country not just for themselves, but for all."

DHS has admitted to deporting 86 #DACA recipients and detaining 261 others—that we know of.

One DACA recipient was abducted at her green card interview.

“It seemed like we walked in and she never had a chance,” her daughter said. “It felt like we just walked into a trap.”

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem testified that detainees receive medical attention within 12 hours.

That’s just plain false.

Listen to the U.S. Citizens who were wrongfully detained and denied critical care.

ICE training was slashed, records show, corroborating whistleblower claims Previously unreported records also offer new details about what was cut from ICE’s basic training program. Concerns about the quality of ICE agents’ training have mounted for months.

"The initial cuts eliminated more than 100 hrs. dedicated to hands-on instruction and practice scenarios, incl. half the 56 hrs. once spent on firearms training... Also eliminated were dozens of hours of classroom learning on such topics as case processing and deportation officers’ legal authority."

RASKIN: Is it lawful for federal agents to shoot and kill a person for engaging in peaceful protest?

NOEM: No

RASKIN: Is it lawful for agents to shoot someone just for driving away from them?

NOEM: No


RASKIN: Well, I'm glad you got the law right

Our client Leo Garcia Venegas and two other victims of DHS’s lawlessness got to introduce themselves to Secretary Noem today.

The room fell silent when they stood.

I want to know Secretary Noem's plan to stop masked ICE and CBP agents from killing American citizens like Renee Good and Alex Pretti. We can enforce our immigration laws without terrorizing American citizens and immigrant communities.

Florence ICE detainee dies after untreated tooth infection, official says An ICE detainee, who had been at a Florence detention center for four months, died Monday following an untreated tooth infection.

“Emmanuel Damas, 56, died while in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, after struggling to receive timely medical care for a worsening toothache, Chandler City Councilwoman Christine Ellis told the Arizona Daily Star Tuesday afternoon." tucson.com/news/local/b...

Today, Secretary Noem takes some questions from House Judiciary Democrats. Here’s one: why are masked federal agents wreaking havoc in our cities—intimidating, attacking and killing both immigrants and American citizens?

I’ve been notified about another death in ICE custody.

This marks a stunning 40 deaths during the second Trump administration.

This cannot continue. There must be real accountability for ICE and DHS.

At today’s Senate Judiciary Committee Oversight hearing, Senator @hirono.senate.gov called out DHS Secretary Noem directly.

“The lies that you and this regime spread are creating a culture that fosters abuse of power.”

Trump Escalates His War Against Dreamers As Senate Hearing Exposes Ongoing Government Waste and Abuses DHS has admitted to kicking out nearly 90 DACA recipients and detaining 261 others despite long-standing protections shielding them from deportation.

The U.S. government made a promise to #DACA recipients: follow the rules, pass background checks, renew your status, and you can live and work without fear.

"But under Donald Trump’s administration, that promise has been fundamentally broken."

DHS confirmed what the #HomeIsHere tracker has been warning us about for months: DACA recipients are being targeted, despite the protections DACA was created to provide.

📢 Congress must act NOW to deliver permanent protections and stability to DACA recipients.

"While President Trump has unleashed a new war in the Middle East, his existing war against immigrants and American communities continues unchecked and unabated." Vanessa Cárdenas Executive Director of America’s Voice

Statement from @vcardenas.bsky.social, Executive Director of America’s Voice on Trump's new war in the Middle East and his existing war here at home.

And in a classic example of ‘do as I say, not as I do,’ the Trump administration encourages the Iranian people to stand up and use their voices to speak out against repression while cracking down on the American people who are attempting to do the same here at home.

KLOBUCHAR: Alex Pretti's parents said what you said was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine. Do you want to say anything to Alex's parents?

NOEM: I did not call him a 'domestic terrorist.' I said it 'appeared to be an incident of'

KLOBUCHAR: I think the parents saw it for what it was

PADILLA: If President Trump or Stephen Miller directed you to send ICE agents to polling places, would you say 'no'?


NOEM: There is no plan to send ICE officers to polling locations. Are you planning on sending illegal aliens to vote?

PADILLA: No. That's already illegal

wow -- Tillis goes ballistic on Noem, telling her "what we've seen is a disaster under your leadership"

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?

NOEM: Yes

WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?

NOEM: No.

SCHIFF: Are you saying it's just fortuitous that $143m went to a subcontractor that you worked w/ extensively as gov of SD?

KRISTI NOEM: I had no choosing of contractors.

S: Can you state for record that you or Lewandowski had no communication with any agency involved?

N: To best of my knowledge

SCHIFF: Don't you think in aftermath of a shooting you should provide only vetted information? How will you gain the trust of people if you're pushing out false info about the shootings of American citizens?

NOEM: I work every day to get out factual information

SCHIFF: Well, you didn't that day

Sen. BLUMENTHAL: Have you met with any citizens arrested and detained by DHS?

Noem: *dodges*

Blumenthal: I’d like to introduce you to three individuals who were wrongfully arrested by your department.

Detained citizens: *stand*

Blumenthal: U.S. citizens shouldn't be arrested.

@hispaniccaucus.bsky.social leadership strongly condemns DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's arbitrary and opaque targeting of DACA recipients by immigration enforcement agencies.
