The government's decision to stop funding mRNA vaccine research is a paralyzing blow to America's ability to quickly develop these proven live-saving interventions. As a nurse and congressional candidate, I stand with science. Slashing medical research funding does not make America healthy again.

Tom Homan (Border Czar) is enabling ICE’s racial profiling and kidnappings.

Todd Lyons (ICE Acting Director) said mass deportation should be like “[Amazon] Prime, but with human beings.”

Stephen Miller (architect of ICE’s policies) is a known white supremacist.

ICE is a Nazi organization.

ICE agents were caught on camera unlawfully trespassing and urinating on the grounds of an LA public school, risking exposure to minors.

They’re not only terrorizing our communities—illegally kidnapping people—but also urinating on playgrounds.

ICE is a morally bankrupt, state terror organization.

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

Holy shit. India’s Foreign Secretary just shut down Trump’s claim he brokered peace between India and Pakistan. Modi told him: “There was never any discussion… about a trade deal or U.S. mediation… India has neither accepted mediation, nor does it do so—and never will.”

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

🚨Senator Alex Padilla dared to ask a question at a DHS press conference. As he’s manhandled, removed and thrown to the ground you can hear Kristi Noem talking about how ICE is being mistreated.

A DHS spokesperson defended the detainment, accusing Sen. Padilla of failing to properly identify himself during Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference.

But multiple videos show Padilla clearly identifying himself as a senator.
Sen. Padilla pushed to ground, handcuffed for demanding DHS not lie
Forcibly removing a sitting US senator, as they opposed the president's immigration policy, is a part of a broader slide.

Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.

Majorly fucking pissed!
Sen. Alex Padilla just got forcibly removed from Kristi Noem’s presser—for daring to ask real questions? Outrageous. This is what GOP “freedom” looks like: silencing truth. Padilla showed guts. Noem showed cowardice. I'm pissed? Are you?

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

BREAKING: An ICE vehicle just RAMMED into a civilian car in Boyle Heights.

Then they gassed it.
Then they dragged out the driver.
All three people in that car are U.S. citizens.

This is militarized racial profiling on steroids.
