Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.
ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.

Congratulations to Georgia Democrats! They just flipped a seat that Republicans won by 22% last year! This rural district. Change is coming. Democrats are going to win all over the map.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

I interviewed Wayne Rogers who is running for Secretary of State in Alabama in 2026. We need to support good democratic candidates in the south.

Unpopular opinion: The Ravens are the real Browns. The current Cleveland Browns are an expansion franchise whose history begins in 1999. Despite what the NFL tells the citizens of Cleveland.

OK, look, I promise not to be snarky! Can anyone please explain the Medbed conspiracy theory to me? Since apparently the President is pushing this theory out into the wild.
