This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

If the president cannot be sued while in office, then the president should not be able to file suit while in office. Fair is fair.

"I begged my wife for the last two months to stop calling me flaccid. That kind of rhetoric needed to stop. I said to her in March--if the rhetoric doesn't stop, there is gonna be a black eye. And there has been. I wish I wasn't right. I don't want to see anyone with a black eye. But I warned her."

🔴 One man was a plane spotting enthusiast who became an activist tracking #ICE flights in #Minneapolis

"The deportees are in shackles. They're chained at their wrists and their ankles, and they are checking them to make sure they are safe to get on the airplane, and then they hobble up the steps"

Separating them hastened the son's death! So they compound their cruelty by denying him attendance at the funeral. It feels like they actively hate this man and his family, but what for?

A president who combines hostility with intellectual emptiness isn’t just controversial...he’s structurally dangerous. It’s hard to tell which is more alarming: the policies or the lack of comprehension behind them.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

The next could be you.

What’s at stake isn’t just our democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.

This is personal — to every one of us.

They beat him. Took his gun out of his pants. Then when he was helpless. They executed him.

They shot him 10 times while he was face down.

It was a 3rd world style public execution

AOC: This is quite a bit of market concentration. Agreed?

CVS HEALTH CHAIR DAVID JOYNER: No. I'd suggest it's a model that works well for the consumer

AOC: It works well for CVS. Health insurance gets a cut, pharmacy benefit manager gets one, drug manufacturer gets one, & the patient gets screwed
