The Trump regime is building a massive human trafficking operation run by armed contractors.

Remember Acting ICE Director, Todd Lyons, said, “We need to get better at treating [deportation] like a business… like (Amazon) Prime, but with human beings.”

We have 50501 organizers on the ground right now, and they just got confirmation a bus with more detainees is coming. They also just overheard the cops on site say they have a minor in the car, so one of the detainees may be under 18. Will send more updates as we get them.

Please help boost this!

If one of us stands up, they can pick that person off. If ten or a hundred or a thousand, they can pick those people off. And they're picking off people--immigrants, dissidents--to make an example of them. But if ten million people stand up, they cannot stop us all.

Senate Democrats will launch a war room Tuesday dedicated to fighting back against the Department of Government Efficiency's cuts to Social Security.

Scoop: Senate Dems to launch Social Security war room

The war room will serve as a central hub for Senate Democrats to plan messaging, create content, provide oversight, make field visits and host town halls to pummel the GOP on the issue.
