MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

I’ve now been notified of another death in ICE custody — the 26th since Trump took office in January.

We need oversight, accountability, and justice. I will keep fighting for the dignity of immigrants in Trump’s horrific detention centers.
I’ve been notified of two more deaths in ICE custody in the last 24 hours — meaning that 25 people have now died in detention since Trump returned to office.

That’s the most in more than two decades. The cruelty and inhumanity of this administration must end.

Congress just gave $900 billion to the US military in case you were wondering if there were any repercussions for blowing up civilian ships on the high seas. Meanwhile, the FIFA peace participation trophy guy still manages to keep the Epstein list out of the headlines.

ARKANSAS FARMER🧑‍🌾 : “Trump’s $12 billion bailout is a far cry from what we need. Just the loss in corn this year was over $16 billion. The loss in soybeans around $11 billion. Cotton & rice even bigger losses. $12 billion won’t make up for this 1 year.”

I just voted NO on handing more than $890 billion to the Pentagon — the only federal agency that has NEVER passed an audit.

I cannot support pouring taxpayer dollars into the military industrial complex while American families can’t afford food or health care.

Republicans have been silent as Trump bulldozes the East Wing and posts videos bombing protesters with feces, but they called Democrats' effort to save health care for working families "political terrorism."
