ICE stalked an elderly woman who works in homecare for her grandchildren on her way to pay her rent. They stopped her, broke her car window, and roughed her up enough to cause a concussion, bruised ribs, and a torn rotator cuff. Then found her passport in her purse and fled. gofund.me/b7afaa65e

They used "anti-semitism" as a pretext to deport foreign-born students and chill free speech, and their deportation chief -- the one with the nonstandard Hugo Boss-style greatcoat -- was spouting anti-semitic insults at a US attorney

There needs to be a shift in the conversation from “Schumer and Jeffries are bad spineless and bad at being the opposition” to @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social are knowingly collaborating with the Trump administration.

Graham objected to unanimous consent.

And he blocked the business of the Senate.

Any Senate Democrat could do this.
NO SENATE VOTE TONIGHT

Couldn’t get all senators to allow a speedy vote. Schumer tells reporters Lindsey Graham is blocking it. “That’s the holdup,” Schumer tells reporters. Graham wants to keep a provision letting him sue to pocket $500,000 over J6 phone records seized.

Right now, Democrats have the power to defund and abolish ICE. We should do it. This is about right and wrong—and the murder we are seeing on the streets is just plain wrong. Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is supporting the murder of Americans. We can stop this.

It appears several clergy were just arrested as they staged an anti-ICE protest in the Russell Rotunda in the U.S. Senate office building.

A number of faith leaders, who were in town urging Senators to vote against additional ICE funding, were led away by police: www.facebook.com/FIAnational/...

I think it’s pretty clear that the @democrats.org are now the #pedoprotectors
Oh god I didn't want to be right about this one, but I am. They wear masks and gaiters because they're on sexual assault and kiddie raper lists. Any funding for ICE means you want more kids to be assaulted. Do Dems want more kids raped?
Oh wonderful.

"We've been through a lot. Like voting yea to confirm Marco Rubio, Sean Duffy, Doug Collins, and Brooke Rollins. Also making the Laken Riley Act worse & helping it pass. You know, standing up for what's right! Together, we can keep going through a lot."
Minnesotans, we’ve been through a lot.

And I believe this moment calls for grit, resilience, and faith in each other.

I believe we must stand up for what’s right. And fix what’s wrong.

Failures both of you.
Two people have been abducted from Scotland in the middle of the night by the US military. Despite an order from our highest court that they be kept here.

The Scottish Government must show that actions have consequences by evicting American troops from their base at publicly-owned Prestwick Airport

I once had an immigration client that had been in Richmond, VA disappear for a few days then pop up again in Tacoma, WA. We had to engage local counsel in Washington State to continue to represent her. This was during the Obama administration.
Excellent explanation of how ICE moves immigrants from one prison facility to another to deny them access to justice.

Rand Paul already making more sense than Biden admin letting Israel investigate their own war crimes…
Rand Paul: "There has to be an investigation. I don't know who trusts an investigation done by DHS when they're the ones calling this person an 'assassin,' a 'domestic terrorist,' saying he was assaulting police. How can they be in charge of an independent investigation? Something's got to happen."

So for Dems, the win is: reiterating 3 things that are already law, 1 thing that is a best practice, and 1 thing that was already a rule up until 6 months ago?

From the bottom of my heart: fuck off with this.

And they didn't even include ICE out of hospitals, healthcare facilities and daycares.
Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:

DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools

"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:
