Kristi Noem has been a complete and total failure at her job. She has violated her oath and has allowed ICE agents to terrorize our communities.
That’s why I’m joining @robinkelly.house.gov in calling for her impeachment.
We deserve better, she’s gotta go.

Never forget: Trump supports Israel not because he likes Jews—he hates us—but because far-right evangelicals believe Israel must be kept safe for the Jesus's return.
Trump doesn't *need* AIPAC money when he has 10x more from the antisemitic Musk.
This regime endangers everyone.

Trump was famously quoted as saying in the 1980s that he has use for Jews when they make him money—as he believes us obsessed with money and uniquely able to get it.
Jared Kushner has made Trump rich—so he's an acceptable Jew. The rest of us get only his contempt.
Now you know.

At a time when multiple federal departments run by Donald Trump have posted Nazi slogans or imagery or songs in the last week—with the total number of incidents being impossible to count just on one hand—Trump is now demanding lists of Jews from U.S. institutions.

Koh: Trump has now spent $30 billion from the last bill for 10,000 more I.C.E. Agents that are going to be on the streets. That $30 billion would cover all the ACA subsidies for a year. It would eliminate all co-pays for prescription drugs for people from a year, and eliminate all medical debt.

A brave worker in Michigan confronted Trump by calling him out as a 'pedophile protector'; this infuriated Trump who responded with "fuck you! fuck you!" and flipped him off as he waddled away.

There is no legitimate reason for ICE to operate this way during immigration “enforcement actions,” especially in light of the recent history of documented abuses. Anonymity accelerates that kind of behavior. It tells the agents they aren’t accountable. joycevance.substack.com/p/should-ice...
Should ICE Agents Be Able To Wear Masks?

It's a sad state of affairs. On the plus side, several Democratic-led states are drafting new laws to restrict federal powers by entities like ICE.

A 1985 Supreme Court ruling says that police can't open fire on someone who is fleeing unless they pose a serious danger to the officer or others. But that was authored by activist judges appointed by woke presidents like Nixon and Reagan.

Renee Nicole Good was murdered by ICE. She wasn’t just killed, she was murdered.
The right was already trying to vilify her before we even knew her name. But I’m just going to say it…
They’re going to have a much harder time doing that this time.
She’s not Brown.
She’s not Black.
She’s white.
