BREAKING: Senator Chris Murphy just ripped Secretary Noem to filth on the Senate floor:
“Your department is out of control.”
Illegal spending. Shadow immigration policy. People disappearing for criticizing the regime.
We’re not teetering on fascism. We’re in it.

“The Republican Party is not the party I signed up with... The marginalization of Latinos and immigrants—many of whom have helped build this country—is not leadership. It’s fear-based politics.”
