It's racism. It's fascism. Senator, fight with all you have!

Senator Dick Durbin @durbin.senate.gov · 5d

We just heard from a Chicagoan who called it like it is.

ICE is profiling and arresting Americans, just because of how they look and the language they speak.

It’s totally inappropriate.

We are horrified to learn of the shooting of Charlie Kirk. Political violence has no place in democracy. The foundation of democracy rests on the principle that differences can be debated vigorously, but peacefully, without intimidation or acts of violence.

Trump is considering suspending habeas corpus — a core constitutional right — just because he doesn’t like losing in court. That’s not national security. It’s authoritarianism.

We must resist.

The WH says Trump is considering suspending habeas corpus. What would that mean?

The move to expel migrants would curtail a constitutional right to due process.
