Public health should never be politicized.

In the wake of the federal government abandoning science for conspiracy theories, it's up to governors to step up.

Proud to join my colleagues in the Governors Public Health Alliance to keep communities safe and put our people first.

Graphic of the Governors Public Health Alliance that reads Disease doesn’t stop at state borders - and neither should state preparedness.

I automatically dislike anyone who demands that I like her NO MATTER WHAT and, failing at that, I am oppressing and persecuting her - this woman is a horror show - and I dislike her -

Bari Weiss launched her own path to stardom with the argument "it is oppression to dislike me for being bad" and now we will get to see what an entire media ecosystem built with that philosophy looks like

Kaine: "We should not be allowing the president to create a secret enemies list and make the unilateral decision about whether to kill people without sharing that information at least with the Armed Service and Intel committees. So this is very troubling."

“the constitution forbids race conscious remedies” would be news to the people who wrote the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments

Griem goes there, arguing in response to Justice Jackson that there can be no race-conscious remedy absent a finding of intentional discrimination.

I can't believe people are getting kidnapped out of their homes by people who refuse to show ID. All law enforcement officers are required to carry and show ID. If any person claims to be law enforcement and refuses to show me ID, I don't have to believe they are law enforcement.

Well, the Taliban is probably in better shape physically than ICE is given the videos I've seen. I'm in bad shape (260 lbs) but they'd probably hire me if I was American (thank goodness I'm not).

Targeted states must (1) arrest ICE when they enter the state (2) establish their own active militias (3) protect their citizenry from ICE terrorists -THIS is the tyrannical government our founders warned us against - THIS is the 'inside' destroyer of our nation Lincoln warned us about -address it!

Repubs think they can have it both ways. They say they are cracking down on crime, while giving ICE and border patrol agents free rein to commit every crime imaginable. Makes no sense, and it’s way past time to do something about it. Dems should be on this all day, every day, until it stops.

ICE Impersonation Incidents Reach Record High in 2025, Outnumbering Four Administrations' Combined Total

Experts and local officials have linked the spike to the government's expanded, highly visible immigration operations and the use of masks and plain clothes by agents during raids

If a random guy in a mask grabbed someone and threw them in a vehicle—we'd call that a kidnapping. Until an alleged ICE agent identifies themselves, that's what this is.

For all we know they're a rapist murderer stalker looking for their next victim. Indefensible. Dem leadership must act NOW.

ICE targeted an apartment building near my home. Masked agents in unmarked cars. I've said this before. Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents.

This anonymous denial of due process is deadly.
