I am deeply concerned about Liam and every child at the Dilley Detention Center. No parent should have to worry about whether their child is eating, getting medical care, or deteriorating in detention. What I saw was alarming — and unacceptable. Liam must be released immediately.

Congress has the power to stop ICE from terrorizing our communities. Let’s use it.

See, the “immigration crisis,” “border emergency” etc - it’s 100% made up. There is NO crisis except panicked, violently racist white people. That’s it. All this suffering and death is caused by that and only by that. The rest is bullshit: an excuse to grab power by a white supremacist regime.

Violence & then lies. Lies about the violence, about the victim, about the law.

I think it's important to be the person you wish there were more of in the world. In an effort to be that person, I want to own my mistakes, apologize when appropriate, and learn from them. This is the Internet, so I fear that this will somehow make this worse, but I'm still going to try. 1/

We all saw Alex Pretti, a lawful observer exercising his rights, murdered in cold blood by federal agents. And we are all seeing this administration lie to our faces about it. That cannot be how things work in this country.

Today, Rep. Castro and I visited precious Liam and his father, Adrian, at the Dilley Detention Center. My heart absolutely breaks for Liam, his family, and every person being wrongfully detained.

Republicans gave ICE a blank check, funding untrained federal agents who've been attacking, detaining, & even killing Americans. Republicans have talked for years about government overreach—well, here it is. Now's the time for senators to prove they care about the Constitution.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Exactly right, and therefore important not to give credit for an investigation of an obvious atrocity. Appropriate responses are apologies, resignations, firings, impeachments. The individuals who killed people should be tried before a judge and jury.

Join us at Constitution Ave NE and Delaware Ave NE by Russell Senate Office Building until 7pm today Tuesday. The Senate has a vote scheduled in 20 minutes. Call your members of Congress and tell them to support a just and lasting peace for Ukraine. #CrimeaIsUkraine 🇺🇸🇺🇦

Democrats are ready to avert a GOP shutdown. But Republicans are threatening to block the 5 bills we all agree on. Why? After people have been shot & killed in broad daylight, they're insisting ICE—which they admit has enough money—needs MORE money without any new strings attached.

What good does it do to demoralize people who are fighting against a criminal regime? They should be empowered, not chastised. Be careful of where you direct your anger.

In just 4 years, russia has murdered tens of thousands of Ukrainians, while making 11 million people refugees and internally displacing a further 4 million. Mass graves, torture chambers and kidnapped children — courtesy of a permanent member of the UN Security Council. Still.

The Holocaust is one of the most horrific crimes against humanity. It took the lives of approximately 6 million Jews, 1.5 million of whom lived in the territory of present-day Ukraine. As well as millions of people from other groups that the Nazi regime deemed "unworthy of life."

The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

AI-Powered Disinformation Swarms Are Coming for Democracy #cybersecurity #infosec

Meanwhile, don’t forget Georgia. For over a year, protests against a repressive, Russia-linked goverment takeover have endured. The regime's latest escalation is arresting people for peacefully standing on sidewalks. On a bus, an activist asks: if you think this deserves jail, raise your hand.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

I have already called for an impeachment inquiry into Noem & am now signing onto the articles of impeachment for her abysmal conduct.

The party that has spent unlimited resources and energy getting states to pass laws to allow citizens to openly carry loaded weapons anywhere - now believes that exercising this right is permission for law enforcement to murder you. Honestly, how dumb do they think we are?

when they say that everyone should have a right to carry a weapon in public they mean only loyal Republicans have a right to carry a weapon in public. if you don't agree them politically and you carry a weapon then that's justification for them to shoot you dead.

🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: Ultimately, history punishes those who stand aside. In many respects, the wars of the 20th century were the result of the indifference of those in power in the 19th century.

In his 2022 address to the US Congress, President Zelenskyy quoted Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I have a dream" speech, adding "I have a need: I need to protect our sky." 4 years later, that need remains. Wish the President a happy birthday by donating towards safer skies: u24.gov.ua/nafo-dark-ni...

Happy birthday to President #Zelenskyy. I wish you and the people of #Ukraine continued strength and a victory which will bring you lasting peace.

The Senate should not vote to keep funding this rampage. We are not powerless. We do not need to accept this.

It just get worse. Instead of administering CPR to a man who might still be alive, DHS officers were leering over the body, counting the bullet holes.

Becoming clear that Kremlin strategy now seems to be focused on keeping Ukraine’s allies chasing phantom negotiations, providing "diplomatic" cover while Russia destroys Ukraine. No new sanctions, no additional pressure on Russia, attacks continue.

Today is the International Day of Education. In Ukraine, the educational process remains a daily challenge due to war. Thousands of children have to learn in shelters instead of classrooms. Let’s help make these spaces comfortable: u24.gov.ua/merry-kidsma...

During UAE talks, Russia attacked Kyiv with all missile types, including Zircon and Kh-32.

Everyone freezing on the East Coast or in the Midwest remember: Kyiv has the same weather, except that hundreds of thousands of people don't have electricity, heating or running water

Zelensky's speech in Davos upset some Europeans. They say, "but we pay for Ukraine to defend itself". That's right, we do. What we don't do is defend Europe. We've outsourced that even though we have a stake in all of this - Russia winning and Ukraine falling would be disastrous for us. 👇🏻

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

Minneapolis says no to ICE.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

Essentially, what stops abductions is when crowds outnumber the masked kidnappers. When people aggressively follow ICE with whistles and horns, crowds are ready to show up. If they show up fast enough, ICE leaves and a family is not broken. (People here understand the stakes).

Day 422 of #GeorgiaProtests 1. Further international isolation of the regime, which is an enabler and sanctions evasion tool in the Russia-Iran-China axis; 2. Further targeted sanctions. It works; 3. Aid to CSOs and independent media. Please amplify! Thank you. 📷 Dato Simonia

ICE, as it exists today, needs to be dismantled.
