The administration took the next logical step in the stunning capitulation of social media giants to Trump. It has convinced them to rat on Americans who criticize ICE.

Without a peep, major tech companies have complied.

ProPublica spoke to kids detained in ICE’s Dilley detention center.

How are these beautiful children in an unsafe, unsanitary prison camp and yet the wealthy and powerful child sexual predators in the Epstein files are still free?

Raskin to Bondi: "You're not showing a lot interest in the victims. Whether it's Epstein's human trafficking ring or the homicidal government violence against citizens in Minneapolis, as AG you're siding with the perpetrators and ignoring the victims."

You owe it to yourself to read Rebecca Solnit's latest essay from Meditations in an Emergency--a prodigious piece that chronicles the many ways we are defeating Trump. It is comprehensive, but worth every word. As always, it is a pleasure to read the work of such a gifted writer.

Democrats must stand firm on this point. Compliance with a protection present at the birth of our republic should be “non-negotiable.” If complying with the Constitution is intolerable, ICE must be abolished and replaced with an agency that views the Constitution as its charter, not an obstacle.

The requirement of a warrant based on probable cause to enter a person’s home is a touchstone of the Bill of Rights. According to John Adams, the British practice of issuing “general writs” authorizing unbounded searches of homes led to the “first Act of opposition” in the Revolution.

Donald Trump’s DOJ just tried—and failed—to indict me in front of a grand jury.

We will continue to fight back against their rising tyranny.

Don’t Give Up the Ship.

This is about fear, not fraud. The GOP's poll numbers are tanking, their agenda is unpopular.

Their response? Nationwide voter suppression bills to stop Americans from voting them out.

This administration is a criminal administration.
Rep. Kennedy: "Do you believe your agency has a legal obligation to follow court orders?"

ICE Director Lyons: "Yes."

Rep. Kennedy: "You have a very strange way of showing it, with a federal judge finding that your agency is in violation of 96 orders in one month alone."

Honored to be endorsed by the Georgia AFL-CIO.

Working folks deserve leaders who show up, listen, and fight for them.

That commitment comes from a lifetime of service to this country and long days working the farm back home.

This week, Trump hopes to push through the so-called SAVE ACT. This is an effort to steal your vote. If you are a woman, in the military, a college student, poor, a migrant, a retiree, or native American your right to vote is under attack.
