Trump's reference to the "enemy within" is not about immigrants. If you still think this is about immigrants, you're missing the plot. Trump has declared war on Americans who believe in democracy--all Americans who who oppose his incipient dictatorship. The majority of us.

Pete Hegseth is an absolute disgrace to the military.
Every person who has served in the military know what they must OBEY.
And absolutely what they must DISOBEY.
The fact he doesn’t understand this is why he should never have been given the position.

The FBI has requested interviews with six Democrats regarding their video, which reminds troops to follow the Constitution.
The Trump administration saw the now-infamous video as treasonous, called for them to be hanged, and is weighing court-martialing Sen. Mark Kelly. trib.al/ELXKBpd

I'm all for reform to improve our public schools—I'm the one who rewrote No Child Left Behind.
But Trump breaking apart the Department of Education isn't reform, it's sabotage.
I'm fighting every way I can to stop him and protect public education.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
