My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.
Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.
We should get serious about sanctions. Russian missiles that kill Ukrainian civilians contain parts made in the West. And this repeated mass murder of civilians by Moscow should bring total boycotts on Russian gas and oil. And the Ukrainians should get everything they need to defend themselves
Have been thinking about “immigration has been tearing this country apart.” Surely I’m not the only person to think that it isn’t true, but inflamed rhetoric about immigration by politicians is what is tearing this country apart and so statements like that only makes it worse.
This thread is horrifying, and is only happening with the complicity of Congress and the Supreme Court

It’s a fact. Data from three decades of political violence reveals that right-wing terror attacks outnumber attacks from the left.

First, foremost and, most urgently, govt must stop its facilitation of X. But everyone needs to reconsider their use (and so, support) of that platform. It’s a fascist megaphone aimed at dismantling our democracy and you’re deluding yourself if you think your liberal voice on there is being heard.

As a survivor, I can't think of a more fitting metaphor than a rapist creating loud noises with planes as a survivor tries to tell her story. I mean... just wow. Nevertheless, she persisted.

If "mass unrest" ever happens, that will be an important news story.
But this fevered speculation every week on what *might* happen is downright irresponsible.
It's misleading, it's fear-mongering & it makes the press look like an apocalyptic cult, gathering every Friday for the end of the world.

⚡️Ukrainian soldier survives after 5 days crawling with throat cut by Russian troops.

Israel's own figures say 83% have been civilians.
Disproportionate numbers of journalists, medics & children have been killed.
