Roughly 13,000 or so Haitian refugees were accepted by the U.S. and settled down in Springfield, OH.
The administration is wanting to rip that status away to send ICE into that community.
By definition, that’s ethnic cleansing.

Now that we have evidence in black and white of horrific abuse of young girls, what’s the republican response? Make it harder for women to vote.
The SAVE ACT is making its way around Congress. Again. This time it’s turbocharged. The bill, meant to “secure our elections,” is a trick that would make it harder for millions of eligible Americans to register to vote and cast their ballots. Let Congress know: (202) 224-3121 @lwvus.bsky.social

Neither Trump nor the GOP in congress have this power, & the only way they do this is if we decline to stand up for our rights. He's had a string of electoral defeats & rightfully fears the midterms. His outbursts are real threats, but they come from weakness. Tough shit, he's going down. No Kings.
Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"

The reason rank and file Dems are pissed at their party is because their party doesn't lead in key moments. The good news is it's primary season, and now's when we get to demand better leadership. I recommend everybody adopt 1 or 2 DINOs and dedicate yourself to replacing them with Dems who fight.
DHS spending bill passed 220-207
7 Democrats voted in favor:
Henry Cuellar
Don Davis
Laura Gilles
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Jared Golden
Vicente Gonzalez
Tom Suozzi
Massie voted No
Andy Harris didn't vote
Might not have passed if every Democrat voted No, but leadership wasn't whipping them to do so
