Bowser: "I think I speak for all Americans -- we don't believe it's legal to use the American military against American citizens on American soil."

Odd, how South Park is covering Kristi Noem and her ICE hooligans more accurately than The New York Times.

ICE memo outlines plan to deport migrants to countries where they are not citizens The dramatic shift in policy could result in thousands of immigrants being deported to places where they lack family ties or even a common language.

Breaking news: Federal immigration officers may deport immigrants with as little as six hours’ notice to countries other than their own, even without assurances that the arrivals will be safe from persecution or torture, a top official said.

Why are folks mad at the working mom with kids on Medicaid and SNAP rather than companies like Walmart that refuse to pay her a living wage and provide health insurance?

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane β€œAlligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

Just heard Bill Kristol, former chief of staff for Dan Quayle, say he thinks ICE should be defunded and that the entire DHS should probably be disbanded, which puts him to the left of maybe the majority of elected Democrats. Truly wild times we’re living in.

McGovern: "A family making less than $50,000 a year? They get less than $1 a day in tax cuts. You can't buy a damn cup of coffee with that. But those making a million dollars or more? They'll get more than $250 a day in tax breaks ... that's how rigged this bill is to benefit the wealthy."

What has been reified for me over the last week is how out of step many MA electeds are with their constituents. MOST people don't want their neighbors kidnapped by unmarked vans. It's a layup position.

Too few journalists are noting that this otherwise braindead demand for America to recreate CECOT on Alcatraz is tied to ongoing efforts by Trump, Miller, Homan and Prince to figure out how to get a supermax that violates human rights on U.S. soil so political dissidents can eventually be sent there

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"
