- Reposted by Suzanne KelleherNEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program. This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE. Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.

- Reposted by Suzanne KelleherRepublicans apparently want to focus on Obama-era deportations. This isn't smart. Obama showed that it was possible to focus on deportations without terrorizing communities and sparking a national backlash. Team Trump should stop referencing Obama’s policy and start emulating it.

- Reposted by Suzanne KelleherStriking from new Quinnipiac poll: *Voters prefer path to legalization over deportations for most undocs by 59-34. Among independents it's 61-33 *Majority says Trump on immigration is making America less safe Again, there's broad rejection of the whole project, not just ICE tactics (see below)
- Vast camps are central to Trumpism. Stephen Miller has long been very excited about them. Backlash is another sign that opposition to Trump/Miller runs deeper than revulsion at ICE. There's real resistance to the whole ideological project of mass deportations. 4/ newrepublic.com/article/2060...

- Reposted by Suzanne KelleherElon Musk's net worth just hit $800 billion. How? One of his corporations acquired another one of his corporations. Meanwhile, Elon's companies pay next to nothing in federal income taxes and get billions of dollars in government contracts. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Transpo Secretary Sean Duffy doing TV hits about ICE? Sure. Small Business Administrator Kelly Loeffler railing against Dems over wildfires? Why not!

- Reposted by Suzanne KelleherThe hallmark (the “brand”) of the Washington Post has been accountability journalism. Thus, today’s staff decimation is Bezos’s greatest gift to Trump, so much more valuable than the Melania movie, inauguration money, etc. This disaster began, for real, with the Harris endorsement he killed.
