That’s what I said. Read 👆🏽it’s wild that these ever existed. It’s particularly weird to me because I have a pace maker. And I have to have a new battery put in within the next 5 years.

George Retes is a US Army veteran who spent 3 days in ICE custody after being grabbed during the California farm raids.

He did nothing wrong … he was just trying to get to work.

They pepper sprayed him, broke his car window & dragged him out.

He’s a US citizen 🧵

1. Federal agents from ICE and other agencies are wrongly detaining U.S. citizens, sometimes detaining them for days, on suspicion that they are undocumented immigrants.

The raids are done without search warrants or other procedures designed to protect civil liberties.

How federal agents are terrorizing American citizens

Last week, hundreds of heavily armed federal agents descended on an apartment complex in Chicago, arriving in Black Hawk helicopters and moving trucks.

Republicans own this shutdown—every job lost, every family hurt, every service gutted is because of their decisions.

The sickest children from around the country are brought to Children's National Hospital for treatment.

The doctors who care for them work days on end for starvation wages.

These doctors deserve a fair bargain. NOW.

This isn't just cruel to these dedicated public servants — it also harms the millions of Americans who will lose the vital services they provide.

Trump's been illegally withholding funds and slashing services since Day 1 — and is on even shakier legal ground now.

Back to court.

White House budget director Russell Vought said reductions in force were underway.
