Not one more cent for DHS and ICE. We have the power to end this.

Masked federal agents just shot and killed a man in Minneapolis in what is being described as an execution. We have to stop funding DHS and get ICE out of our cities now.

A federal judge just unsealed the court records and confirmed what we’ve known all along—Rümeysa was taken from Massachusetts and sent thousands of miles away to a horrific detention center in Louisiana when she had committed no crime. No funding for Trump's ICE thugs.

Watch this video. Trump’s lawless ICE thugs are apparently so empowered that an officer told someone recording them on camera that she’s now in a database as a domestic terrorist. This must end now.

I want to talk to you about Liam Ramos, the five-year-old who was kidnapped by masked ICE thugs in his own driveway. I am disgusted. I am heartbroken. And I am angry. ICE is out of control. We need accountability now.

It would be a mistake of radioactive proportions to resume nuclear testing. It does nothing more than give Russia and China the green light to escalate and drags the world toward a new arms race. More from me in The Nation.

ICE detained a five-year-old child and used him as bait in Minnesota. Let that sink in. This is sick. No more funding for Trump’s ICE thugs.

I don’t take corporate PAC money—no one should. On the 16th anniversary of Citizens United it’s long past time we get dark money out of politics once and for all.

My message to transgender young people whose rights are under attack by right-wing bigots: You are seen. You are valued. You are loved. Trans rights are human rights. And we will never stop fighting to protect you.

End Qualified Immunity now. Hold the ICE officer who blocked aid accountable for Renee Good’s death.
UNFORGIVEABLE: A Minnesota doctor just revealed Renée Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. A physician on scene offered to administer aid and was denied. In any courtroom, preventing medical aid after using deadly force isn’t just cruel, it’s an

We don’t need a Golden Dome, and we don’t need Greenland. Trump’s quest to get both is fool’s gold.

Here’s what you didn’t hear in Trump’s rant yesterday: Electricity costs up 13%. Coffee up 20%. Beef up 16%. 22 Million Americans cut off from the Affordable Care Act cuts. Trump is completely out of touch. Enough about Greenland. Lower costs for the American people now.

At this years MLK Jr. Memorial Breakfast we asked the question: “What would Dr. King demand of us in this America?” I believe Dr. King would want us to fight. Honored to be in community with so many leaders who are heading up that fight every single day.

Always an inspiration to join the @EmbraceBOS Honors MLK as we celebrate the legacy of Dr. King and recognize the community members who keep his legacy alive. Congratulations to Bishop Dickerson and Lady Luella Dickerson, as you are recognized for your essential work.

Dr. King won a Nobel Prize as a paragon of peace. Donald Trump wants to invade ice-covered Greenland while terrorizing ICE-covered communities at home. Invoke the 25th Amendment now.

Today in Dedham we called for justice for Renee Good and everyone who has experienced violence at the hands of Trump’s ICE thugs. ICE out of our cities now.

Good question, Nancy. Here’s a start: Get ICE out of our cities: No votes to fund DHS and ICE thugs who are murdering Americans. Prevent more chaos: Impeach Kristi Noem. Hold ICE accountable: Pass my and @ayannapressley’s Qualified Immunity Abolition Act.
But how do we accomplish this?
