JUST IN: Judge Schiltz cancels Friday’s contempt hearing but lights into ICE, saying the agency may have violated more court orders this month than many others have in their entire existence.

An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering.

Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law.

Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

It’s been 5 months since Trump’s first illegal boat strike, but today was the FIRST public hearing on the strikes and on the war in Venezuela. How novel! The American people deserve answersβ€”why is Trump refusing to give them?

RAND PAUL: If a country bombed our air defense missiles, captured & removed our president, & blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war?

RUBIO: We just don't believe this operation comes anywhere close to the constitutional definition

PAUL: Of course it would be an act of war!

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it’s important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.

Hi, what you saw in 2020 was states expanding access to mail in voting in response to the pandemic.

Republicans found out what happens when they make it easier for people to vote, and now they’re doing everything they can to stop that.

Hope that helps.

Periodic reminder that ICE still isn’t going after β€œhardened criminals”

We would all support that.

What do we gain from yanking this father away from his wife and child? What do we gain from deporting people who have been here for 20 years and never been in legal trouble?

If you capitulate to a bully, you will be bullied forever. If you stand up to him, he will back down. What’s true on the playground is also true in the office, in politics, and in international relations.
