Been a bit behind on this because we are very busy. However, several members of this group were there when Andy Harris made himself a national laughing stock! Let's make the joke on him even more! Donate to Dan Schwartz at secure.actblue.com/donate/danie... #Maryland #Indivisible #Delmarva

NEW: The women were victims of domestic abuse. That’s what they told police officers, attorneys and anyone who would listen. It didn’t matter. They were all taken to an immigration detention center.

The first amendment does not prohibit people from laughing at you when you say stupid s**t. To the contrary, it protects that right. Especially when Andy Harris is saying stupid s**t about diesel prices AND the first amendment.

There are a host of faiths in Congress. Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, non-believers. Various denominations of each. Probably more that I am not aware of because it's none of my business. It's not only unconstitutional to elevate any one of them, but offensive to those of other faiths...

While this hearing didn't proceed, it's clear the Trump admin is continuing what a judge has called a "vindictive prosecution" of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. As I said from day 1, if they can do this to Kilmar, they can do it to anyone. We'll keep fighting this political persecution.

Kilmar Ábrego Garcia hearing on his deportation case is suddenly canceled
The government was moving to vacate a preliminary injunction preventing ICE from detaining and deporting him, while his legal team was trying to make the injunction permanent.

Hegseth also removed the olive branches, a traditional symbol of wishing peace, from the Department of Defense seal. This, in addition to changing the name to "The Department of War," shows the dangerous belligerency that comes from appointing a frat bro who values testosterone over statesmanship.
