DHS wants to detain people in warehouses with no sanitation, medical care, or kitchens. That’s not public safety. It’s dehumanization. No ICE detention in our communities.

Glad to report we are dragging in heads of ICE, CBP, and USCIS to testify before the Committee of Homeland Security.

As ranking member of the Oversight, Investigations, & Accountability Subcommittee, I will not rest until we see accountability for ICE terrorizing our communities.

Today, we remember the six million Jewish people murdered during the Holocaust. As antisemitism rises around the world, we must redouble our fight against the world's oldest hate, and never forget the horrific lessons of the Holocaust. #NeverAgain

The Department of Homeland Security must be held accountable.

Trump continuing to protect pedophiles and MAGA blindly accepts it like sheep. www.the-independent.com/tech/tiktok-...
TikTok users in the US can’t write ‘Epstein’ or see anti-Trump videos
Alleged censorship comes after investors loyal to Trump take over social media platform

A big winter storm is coming. If you or someone you know needs a place to stay warm, Wayne County has shelters and warming centers. For more information: www.waynecountymi.gov/Government/D...

I couldn’t leave DC without calling out ICE’s cruelty. It’s time to ABOLISH ICE.

ICE just aggressively detained a Black American (citizen) law enforcement recruit, despite him showing his ID and proving who he was.

This isn't "a few bad apples," it's a a comprehensive systematic racial profiling operation.
The Sheriff in Cumberland County, Maine confirmed that ICE detained a U.S. citizen who is a Black corrections recruit.

This is racial profiling, unchecked power, and state violence happening in real time.

No more funding for ICE.

Job growth plummeted by more than 70% since Trump returned to office.

Grocery prices are rising at the fastest rate in 3+ years.

America lost 72,000 manufacturing jobs since Trump implemented his tariffs.

A -28 approval difference is generous if we’re being honest.

But Trump said that "affordability" was a "fake word by Democrats."

Trump promised lower costs on day one. Michiganders are paying more.

Today marks one year since Trump returned to office. Since then:

Job growth has PLUMMETED by more than 70%

Prices have SKYROCKETED

Unemployment rate hit a 4+ year high

And all of that is on top of him illegally hiding 99% of the Epstein files.

Happy heavenly birthday to Aaliyah, a Detroit legend whose music helped define 90s R&B.

She would have turned 47 today.

While she's not with us anymore, her legacy, as she would put it, goes on and on and on.

We need the Trump administration to focus on the affordability crisis, not Greenland.

ICE shot another person in Minneapolis last night.

I warned yesterday that more violence was inevitable if ICE continued terrorizing our communities.

This must end now, or it's only going to get worse.

Yes! I fully support #MedicareForAll.

In fact, I'm a co-sponsor on the Medicare For All bill.

Inflation just rose again, even faster than it was predicted to rise…

Someone tell Donald Trump. He asserted yesterday that he had “defeated” inflation.

He must have thought that “Inflation” was the name of a Venezuelan fishing boat.

ABOLISH ICE

TJ Sabula, my constituent & a UAW worker, has been suspended after Trump flipped HIM off and said "F*ck you" to him.

This is unacceptable. NEVER believe MAGA when they cry about the 1st amendment.

Since Trump can't fire me, I'll say it:

Donald Trump is a pedophile protector.

Trump protecting pedophiles while flipping off an American auto worker is actually the perfect metaphor for this administration.

Detroit does not need any more lies.

Today’s awful inflation report shows that prices jumped once again last month, with inflation WAY above the target rate.

Donald Trump—you will be bringing this up when you come to Detroit today to give your speech on the economy, right?
January 13, 2026 at 3:04 PM
Detroit needs results not insults.
