ICE just grabbed NASHVILLE Noticias reporter Estefany Rodriguez outside of a gym.

โ€œShe was with her husband, a ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ citizen โ€” her attorney says she came legally, sponsored by her husband, has a pending green card application.โ€

She also has a daughter.

Iโ€™ve been asked if I would support Sen. Mullin as Noemโ€™s replacement.

The answer is a resounding NO. The rot in DHS is deep, much deeper than any individual.

Itโ€™s a question of policy not personnel. The Senate should not consider any DHS Secretary nominee until DHS and ICE are reined in.

Markwayne Mullin is slated to replace Kristi Noem. Because if thereโ€™s one thing this situation needs, itโ€™s more chaos. Whatโ€™s the worst that could happen?

The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told thereโ€™s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money launderingโ€ฆ So if youโ€™re asking me if Iโ€™d support impeachment, I do

Watch this.

19 minutes and $12 to get meds at a public Chinese hospital. Without insurance.

As we slash Medicaid to start unnecessary wars and cut taxes for the rich. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

We should all be so much angrier than we are. It doesnโ€™t have to be this way. #MedicareForAllNOW

DURBIN: How does taking dad from child dying of cancer qualify as a violent crime?

NOEM: I don't know what you're speaking of

D: Ruben Torres 2 weeks ago buried his daughter. When he was arrested at Home Depot, he said, 'Please. My daughter is dying.' They deported him. Was he a violent criminal?

"On this day, 3 March 1991, Rodney King was brutally beaten by police in Los Angeles. Despite it being caught on film (almost unheard of in those days), the officers were acquitted, and the city went up in flames. "

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social perhaps it's time to revisit our conversation about Abolishing ICE?

Shelly Willingham and Nasif Majeed, two other Democratic lawmakers who also joined the GOP to help pass conservative priorities (though not the specific ICE bill I'm talking about here), also lost to progressive challengers tonight.

There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.

Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very oftenโ€”and her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.

We knew he paid, now we know how much. Will we do anything ?
And in the last year he's bombed 7 countries, killed innocent American protesters and Venezuelan fisherman and we are at war with Iran. Either we fight, possibly losing our lives or I fear our republic will be lost. Words are not working

How Epstein and Maxwell used an elite Midwest arts school to prey on girls Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell lavished money on the Interlochen Center for the Arts to gain access, documents show. In the process, two teenagers were pulled into their orbit.

Well, this is sickening and heartbreakingโ€ฆ

As a native Oklahoman, in my county, every immigrant has a job, goes to church, and are the most productive members of society.

Itโ€™s only the white folks who suck off the gov, wonโ€™t work, happy w/ welfare & food stamps. Their houses are trashed& spend the last dime they at pot dispensary.
