NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.

This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.

Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.

Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?

Maxwell is my hero!!!
Chair Comer denied our request for an official trip to El Salvador to advocate for due process and the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Pretty shameful.

Good thing I don’t need Comer’s permission to get on a plane.

Personally far less interested in news articles that read, “the government WILL do xyz,” instead of, “have past American presidents done xyz, why or why not, and who or what entities are enabling this dysfunction.” It’s not about making enemies of government officials; it’s about incisive reporting.
