I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.

Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.

We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.

This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

For the CEOs and university presidents and other responsible leaders who have been biding their time and waiting for him to cross the magic red line before speaking up, maybe when he starts arresting Senators is a good time to get off the fucking sidelines.

They actually tried to indict sitting members of congress for telling the military not to obey illegal orders. They failed because even the grand jury thought this was ridiculous.

We're asking ICE to do nothing
Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable.

We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow.

Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

A federal judge just ruled CA can ban ICE from wearing masks. The court also ruled the law must include state police, not just federal & local.

Today I introduced SB 1004 to add state police back so that we can enforce CA’s mask ban against ICE, CBP, and all law enforcement.

FOIA data shows ICE employees accused of harassment and abusing law-enforcement databases (including Palantir's systems) were often disciplined unevenly, with outcomes limited to verbal counseling, written reprimands, or short suspensions. The records are here:
