If the Speaker refuses to swear in a member, Congress or the courts can act. A member-elect can sue under Powell v. McCormack, colleagues can force a floor vote or resolution, and public pressure can make it politically impossible to delay. No one is above the Constitution… except you 😘

This was never about deporting criminals. It’s about Stephen Miller’s campaign of ethnic cleansing.

Tweet from Alex Tabarrok reads:
“Sergio Garcia, celebrated Chef who came to the US before ICE even existed. Deported after 36 years.
The picture tells you a lot about the decline of the Republican party.”
Attached photo shows Sergio Garcia standing with Laura and George W. Bush outdoors. The photo is signed: “To Sergio Garcia, With best wishes – George & Laura Bush.”
