So far, Trump has... 

-Fired federal workers who investigate firefighter deaths 

-Rolled back a rule that would have protected miners from contracting black lung

-Planned to shut down 11 of OSHA’s regional offices

Don’t believe his pro-worker posturing for a second.

Even if you accept the premise and decision, which I absolutely do not, it is the simplest thing to phone the visa holder, tell them their visa is revoked and say they have a month to leave the country. Accosting someone on the street like a kidnapping is just a spectacle of terror.
Marco Rubio on Rumeysa Ozturk: "We revoked her visa ... once you've lost your visa, you're no longer legally in the United States ... if you come into the US as a visitor and create a ruckus for us, we don't want it. We don't want it in our country. Go back and do it in your country."

Not a SINGLE Democratic senator should vote for the Republican spending bill. Doing so would simply further embolden and empower Trump in his effort to destroy our government and the vital services it provides.
