And every night, Brett Kavanaugh sleeps soundly in his bed without a second thought about a single one of them.
Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.
They’ve had their necks kneeled on.
They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.
At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

We. Are. NOT. Shutting. Up.
Previous generations fought fascism in nearly every corner of the earth. Today it’s on our streets, silencing opposition and attempting to control the airwaves.
The GOP has declared all out war on free speech. It’s up to us to fight for it.

And now they want 100,000 beds and more planes to scale up?
They’re not deporting “illegals”—they’re running a kidnapping ring with government contracts.
