We had an immigration system before DHS (it was INS) and we can have an immigration system after DHS. One of the reasons ICE is out of control is because of DHS and the reframing of immigration as a national security concern leading to ballooning surveillance, lack of due process, and transparency.

I want the CDC and our relationship to the WHO RESTORED. I want RFK Jr IMPEACHED I want USAID restored and to claw back reparation from ANYONE who profited from DOGE. I want people in the EPA and the Dept of Education and all the dedicated civil servants to be restored and made whole

Sen. Warnock was just asked on CNN if Dems will focus on costs *or* corruption, and he responded "We can walk & chew gum at the same time." Hell yes, that is the message.

Here's the thing, loves. The work continues. We now push these Diet Republican motherfuckers to the left or in front of a train of political obscurity. MAKE THEM protect Black and Brown people. Queer people. Disabled people. No scapegoating trans people, Latinos, or Muslims for a false "peace."

The South is really killing it tonight. Saving our democracy AND showing that candiate quality really matters. And shout out to Black voters who refused to take the destruction of the Voting Rights Act laying down.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ
