In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

Today in Politics Chat, I talked about how power sloshes around when a president is checked out, and noted that right now unelected officials like Stephen Miller are trying to grab it. But instead, We the People can take it back and create a better nation.

Wes Moore: “A prerequisite to keeping the government open should not be cutting people off of healthcare. My message to President Trump is clear. Stop this shutdown. You’re the one causing it. We’re the ones dealing with it.”

What we know so far: The guns are safe. The guns were not harmed. It was just people who were killed and injured, the guns are safe.

Video below: “I am American. I am American.” A man pleads, “Ayúdame, ayúdame. Help me!”

Meanwhile, an ICE officer pulls a gun on innocent bystanders — in Hyattsville, MD. This is happening in America. Right now.

What are we doing about this? It MUST stop. @SenateDems @HouseDemocrats

Establish these rules for yourself...it will serve democracy well:

The more you sense Trump's orbit wants you to be quiet, the LOUDER you become.

The more fear you feel, the MORE ASSERTIVELY YOU FIGHT (legally) in the name of FREEDOM.

Nothing else aligns with stopping this horror show. NOTHING.
