I'm so jealous of my dog. The worst thing she can imagine is that there is a squirrel outside or she gets dinner 30 minutes late.

Sen Chris Murphy (D-CT) just now:

“You could literally walk
down the street and the first 100 people you’d find would be less dangerous as the head of HHS than Robert F Kennedy Jr. He will get people killed”

The only reason ICE would be at schools is to take innocent children into custody in order to lure their parents. Family separation 2.0.

🚨 Los Angeles school police says it will not comply with ICE.

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.
 
In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour. 

Let's steal those ideas.

Trump said he wants to “clean out” Gaza and push the millions of Palestinians living there into neighboring countries.

There is a name for this — ethnic cleansing — and it’s a war crime.

This outrageous idea should be condemned by every American.

If ICE shows you an administrative warrant, make sure it's been signed by a judge. If it hasn't, you have no obligation to comply.

This is a trick they frequently used the last go around.

Big air hi-five across the internet to anyone else who knew they were dead serious about project 2025. No one writes that many pages without meaning it.

Spoke with a woman who was going to adopt a dog from our shelter. She can no longer adopt the dog. She is in her 80s and owns a large farm. All of her help left yesterday in anticipation of ICE raids. She is alone now, trying to run her farm, in one of the poorest counties in my state. #fuckICE

In the new Trump presidency, we have got to remain focused. We can’t panic.

No matter how many executive orders he signs or statements he issues, our goal is the same:

We must fight to create an America based on economic, social & environmental justice.
