- Tom Homan: “You’re not going to stop ICE. You’re not going to stop border patrol” Ilhan Omar: “Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it”

- Today I joined House Democrats at ICE headquarters in DC to demand Kristi Noem's impeachment & voted NO on funding for DHS. Not a dollar more until DHS ends its violence & abuse of power. Trump's federal agents killed two Americans in broad daylight. We are not backing down.

- Moulton: This is state-sponsored terror. This is what you would expect to see in North Korea or Iran or the old Soviet Union. We’ve got to crack down on the government before they crack down on the American people.

- HEADLINE: After Republicans push Clintons to testify on Epstein, Democrats warn they'll haul in Trump Absolutely comical. Piggy will tell them to pound salt (as always with a subpoena) and whine about being a victim. Then he'll say he doesn't remember, which is probably true.

- I don't often wear political t-shirts, but I'm proudly sporting this one today. I'm an immigrant. I teach American (and international!) college students, research the U.S. economy, consult with policymakers, write books, raise my kids, pay taxes, and try to make this a better place.
