Despite what Trump says, working with other democracies and having free trade around the world doesn’t make us suckers. It makes us STRATEGIC and means lower prices for consumers and less chance of going to war.

The Insurrection Act in no way whatsoever suspends, closes, or bypasses the courts. It is not a suspension of habeas corpus. It is not martial law. It does not authorize rule by decree. It allows using troops for law enforcement but that's it. It's not an instant dictatorship switch.
Trump on the Insurrection Act: "It does make life a lot easier. You don't through the court system. It's just a much easier thing to do."

I've said repeatedly that I will not support one dime of funding for Trump's lawless ICE operations.
The funding bill released today fails to sufficiently rein them in or ensure people's rights are protected.
I'm voting NO.

These numbers are a shitshow.
The GOP knows they’re not sustainable, but they’re too afraid to actually do anything about it.
That’s why you’re seeing so many of them resign. They understand what’s coming in the midterms.

I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

The single biggest drop estimated by NFAP is among immediate relatives of U.S. citizens. In other words, a huge drop in family-based immigration, which the Trump admin has attacked for years (despite using it for Melania's parents).
New research concludes the Trump administration’s policies will reduce **legal** immigration to the United States by 33% to 50% over four years.
