Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?
A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

The first person arrested by the Marines is an Army veteran who was on his way to work at the Veterans Administration. It appears he was arrested for crossing a yellow line which the Marines did not realize was not designed to exclude federal employees from reporting to work.

Marines deployed to Los Angeles carried out the detention of a civilian on Friday, the U.S. military confirmed after being presented with Reuters images, in the first known detention by active-duty troops deployed there by President Donald Trump.

James, over 14,000 of Oklahoma's nursing home residents rely on Medicaid. Passing this bill means our parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, neighbors and friends will be homeless or forced into homes far away from loved ones . . . but hey, you keep on calling yourself a Christian. We see you.
In claiming that those dropped from Medicaid will be put on employers’ insurance plans instead, James Lankford just enunciated Trickle Down 2.0: Healthcare Edition. It’s a lie, just like classic trickle-down economics. This budget plan will give us a sicker America.

I say without any irony or sarcasm: yes, thank you, we want parliamentary sabotage.
Again, I'm 100% serious. It's one of the few things a minority party can do, and which Republicans themselves did. It's essential.

They wanted to pass this evil budget to take away healthcare from millions earlier today. It’s still stuck in the rules committee cause House Dems introduced over 500 amendments and we are lined up to debate on them. Delaying is important. Keep up the pressure on these Congressional Republicans.
