They kidnapped Liam Ramos.
They just executed a man on the street.
Unmask them. Prosecute them. No more secret police.
Joining ICE does not give you license to murder.
The President is escalating the situation—and I have no faith he will stop. The Republican Congress must join us to end this. Enough.

They had the man down on the ground, with half a dozen agents holding him down, beating him, when they shot him, multiple times. They were *holding him down and beating him.*
All the charges. Everyone of those agents should be in prison.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

There were just special elections last Tuesday (five days ago) in AL, CT and VA.
The US is in a very bad and dangerous place, but elections have not been canceled.
