Gutting US counterterrorism and federal law enforcement capacity was a bad idea.

Sorry to get so partisan. I know the president wants to see more political violence in the US, and thinks it's important for federal forces to prioritize crackdowns on nonviolent, noncriminal migrants. I just disagree.

I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.

She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

Speaker Mike Johnson mimicked the accent of a Black man in his district giving him advice on the secret to a happy marriage:

“Lean in real close… There’s two things… Uh, let her think she’s the boss, and buy her a new car every three years.”

The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway.
