The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.
This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.
If Democratic congressional leadership don’t lead an en masse halt to all legislative business after today, I don’t know why they’re worth supporting. What moment could more demand a response of intractable and tedious opposition? Shut it all down, and refuse to budge.

Today I'm announcing my campaign for U.S. Senate.
Because we don't have a minute to wait.
Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

Senate Democrats to force vote next week on Trump’s fentanyl tariffs on Canada.
The lawmakers are tapping a provision in a 1976 law that allows any senator to force a vote to block emergency powers being abused by the president. www.politico.com/live-updates...

They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.
29.03.2025 12:17 — 👍 32098 🔁 10249 💬 953 📌 672It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.
Dear @democrats.senate.gov a petition has been started. We can and will mobilize against you all. Keep in mind that the @bluestormcomin1.bsky.social group can organize very quickly. #nomoney #resist #3e

It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.
Chuck Schumer is a long term GOP sleeper agent.
Prove me wrong.
So why are you voting to support their budget? NO to Cloture or time for you to step down. No more bowing down to people robbing the country blind.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.
