The Trump regime will arrest you in the middle of the night because you spoke your mind.

And federal agents in plain clothes who refuse to identify themselves will be the ones to do it.

If you think I'm being hyperbolic, watch this clip.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

NEW: Trump has fired dozens of officials who run the immigration courts—even as he taxes the already broken system with mass deportations.

Former officials tell @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social it's causing severe strain. They worry that under Trump “the entire system will collapse"
“The entire system will collapse”: Inside the purge of US immigration courts
The "nonsensical" firings of immigration judges, managers, and senior officials spell more trouble for an already faltering system.

Remember: The fundamental issue isn’t the size of the government or how to make government more “efficient.”

It’s who our government is for.

Should it work mainly for big corporations and billionaires, including the richest person in the world — or for the rest of us?
