The SAVE Act would require Americans to show a passport or birth certificate in person just to register to vote. Millions of Americans don’t have access to these documents. This is voter suppression, plain and simple. Call your senators to urge them to vote no: (202) 224-3121

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

Khanna: There were two rounds of redactions. There was the original FBI redactions… and they did a second round of redactions at the DOJ. What they’re showing members now is the unredacted version of the DOJ’s redactions—not the original FBI redactions. They’re in blatant violation of the law.

Purchasing warehouses to house people is not OK. These buildings were meant to house things not humans. I visited Alcatraz, the cells each have toilets. I have visited large warehouses, there are 1 maybe 2 toilets for the entire warehouse, because warehouses were meant to store things not people.

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."
