Trump: Everything we're doing is very lawful and what they're doing is not lawful.

And what the governor and mayor, as an example, you can say of Portland and certainly of Chicago, it's not lawful what they're doing. They have to be very careful.

ICE. IS. ALWAYS. LYING.

Bodycam footage shows ICE agent taunting Marimar Martinez before shooting her 5x in Chicago’s Brighton Park, contradicting federal claims that she drove toward officers.

The footage blows apart DHS’s fabricated story about the shooting.
Attorney for woman shot by Border Patrol claims agent said, 'Do something b----' before shooting

🚨I am saying this to everyone for FUTURE reference (if we get there). Please PLEDGE✋ to make healthcare a crucial issue ALWAYS. In 9 yrs as a Patient & Patient Advocate, it's always been: NO ONE CARES about healthcare UNTIL it's hanging by a thread. This MUST change if YOU want UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE!
