I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I'm not a lawyer and I'm very tired, so excuse me if this is a stupid question:

But if the principles of birthright citizenship *were* ever dismantled ... what's the theory for how citizenship would be determined?

For the data nerds out there, here's a chart of the largest coordinated protests in U.S. history from my 2018 book HOW TO READ A PROTEST

Today's "Hands Off" protests, in 1000+ locations around the country, rank as one of the very largest decentralized days of protests EVER.

Donald Trump is treating the destruction of a democracy as a political show — throwing Ukraine to the wolves and doing a favor for Putin.

It's shameful and dangerous.

I've been to Ukraine, as have many Senate Republicans. I hope they speak up. Millions of lives are at stake.

Confirming what others have discussed or reported, 18F, the elite tech consultancy within TTS/GSA, was formally disbanded overnight. There’s a formal RIF, the legal system in which the government downsizes/layoff people. I’m told it’s 60 days on leave for all involved.

I stand with the men and women of the FBI who investigated the crimes WE ALL SAW TRUMP'S ANGRY MOB COMMIT on Jan. 6, 2021. They did the hard, honest, ethical work of protecting We The People & American democracy. Now it's our turn to stand with them. You in?
