Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

"So, Democrats have three words for this: no fucking way. It's literally life or death. We will not let Republicans blow up our health care system."

This is, hands down, the best comms work Chuck Schumer has done in YEARS. Surprisingly good.

A leaked White House draft memo suggests that the Trump administration is actively considering stiffing as many as 750,000 federal workers by denying them compensation while furloughed amid the ongoing government shutdown.

How to win friends and influence people.

Coons: "The government is assessing the authority to summarily kill people....in the Caribbean. Congress has never authorized such a use of military force...How did you conclude that these strikes on boats or ships in the open ocean are legal?"

I feel like one of the aspects we've not talked about on the National Guard problem is that we have state heads of the Guard that are following orders not from their governors (in CA's case)--who have the rightful control--and are invading other sovereign states.

Furloughed workers not guaranteed back pay after shutdown, OMB claims Federal workers may not be entitled to back pay after the government shutdown ends, the Trump administration’s budget office wrote in a new draft memo obtained by The Washington Post, ratcheting up te...

Trump continues to belittle and disregard federal workers. Denying them backpay during this Republican government shutdown is illegal, shameful and deeply unfair.

Hardworking Americans shouldn't be used as political pawns.

All these headlines saying “Bondi Goes on the Attack.” Really? She wasn’t in the octagon, she’s a public servant who was at an oversight hearing. Her job was to answer questions. She refused to do her job. Stop glamorizing and whitewashing this moronic, performative bullshit.

Let me be clear: It’s ILLEGAL to deny federal workers back pay after a shutdown.

There’s a 2019 law that guarantees it, but Trump is once again trying to break the law.

You don’t get to punish people for doing their jobs just because you’re failing at yours.

Perhaps you’ve noticed; the more immigrants they detain and deport…the more violent the United States is becoming. I see a clear connection.

Image of letter sent by Congresswoman Chellie Pingree to the House Chief Administrative Officer requesting to withhold her pay until an appropriations agreement has been reached.

On Day 1 of the Republican Shutdown, I requested that my pay be withheld.

~750K federal workers are now working for free. You’d think Republicans would feel bad about that.

Instead, they’re suggesting *not* paying furloughed workers what they’re owed—in violation of a law TRUMP signed in 2019!

It's so ridiculous that MAGAs believe the GOP line that "Democrats want to give free healthcare to immigrants."

My dudes immigrants aren't getting free healthcare in the United States. American citizens aren't even getting free healthcare. You know who is?

The people lying to you about immigrants.

After yelling and obfuscating to senators for hours, Dick Durbin hit her with this one: "Eventually you are going to have to answer for your conduct in this. You won't do it today, but eventually you will." Suddenly, she went SILENT.🔥 She knows.

You're phucked, Pam....just sayin'

This is out of hand. These agents are there to cause trouble and violence, not to keep people safe. These are the scenes that play out in war torn, destitute countries - not America.

Agree. Agree. Agree.

The “Moral Monsters” Among Us Immigrants are dying now. Will people of good conscience speak up?

Not to put too fine a point on it, but unprecedented numbers of immigrants are dying under the second Trump administration. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-moral-...

Sen. PADILLA: This Justice Department fired a 15-year career prosecutor who put away sex traffickers and transnational terrorists. She was marched out of her office. Why? Because she had the audacity to remind Border Patrol that it should follow court orders.

I have never in my life seen anything like Pam Bondi today. What a disgrace. If we don’t get the house back this country is FINISHED. The founding Fathers Must be spinning in their graves. #impeachBondi

It’s sad that some folks only ‘see the light’ when it hits home. We were sent here to represent hundreds of thousands of people, not just our households.

It’s time for Republicans to remember their oath and do right by the people they serve.

Hmm, what else is on the schedule for tomorrow? Oh that’s right, the Epstein survivors are returning to DC to continue demanding the Republican Congress vote to release the Epstein files: www.thedailybeast.com/epstein-surv...

Never before in American history has one state's military force been deployed in another state over its objection.

I say never because the Civil War involved states whose governments legally ceased to exist, their offices vacated by constructive resignation, with no legitimate governors to object.

I think the better question would have been:

"Pamela Jo, as a fellow taker of bribes, in your case from Donald Trump to shut down your Florida AG investigation of Trump University's consumer fraud, did you approve the shutting down of the bribery investigation into Homan?"

South Carolina's criminal code sentences a rapist to 30 years for rape, but if SC's new S 323 becomes law, it'd sentence a woman to death for getting an abortion

Meaning—if a man impregnates a woman via rape he may get 30 years, but if that impregnated victim gets an abortion she would be executed😐

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.
