@democrats.senate.gov Like I told the House, y’all should be buying Netflix ads to bring awareness to Kilmar Garcia & Mahmoud Khalil’s cases.
Knowledge of the cases are associated with a 9% and 14% drop in presidential approval. Inform disconnected folks!

Gangs are just mini-governments that form where society breaks down. They’re corrupt, they pay the bills, keep people safe from dangers [that their organization is causing], and collect dues from unwilling members to fund murders elsewhere.
Like our government.
