Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

This is a critical point from Sen Chris Murphy: If Dems fold on ICE now, it could be a disaster in the midterms.

"The result will be a lot of voters who tend to turn out in midterm elections just won’t."

Here's our full exchange. It's powerful stuff:

"In the past, Republicans have just waited us out because they thought we would break. This would be a very dangerous moment for us to do that because of the specific moral question being put to the nation: Does the president of the United States get to murder American citizens?"

All 10 shots were fired AFTER they removed the gun from Pretti’s waist. Every single shot was fired after he was disarmed.

It was an extrajudicial execution. Anyone who defends this is defending a police state.

Protest peacefully, remember the 3.5% rule of political science, for authoritarian regimes over the last century, once 3.5 percent of the population protest non-violenty against a dictator or an authoritarian, that is an unstoppable force.

One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.
This dude is intense and correct

Once protest is labeled “insurrection,” the next step is labeling dissenters as enemies. That’s the slope we’re on. The Insurrection Act was meant for genuine emergencies—not for a president eager to silence anyone who refuses to fall in line.

Frey: "You cannot drag pregnant women through the snow. You're not allowed to take teenagers out of their car and detain them when they are in fact American citizens. That is against the law in every state. That is against our US Constitution."
