Trump has made racist threats against Rep. Omar for years and has escalated those threats recently against Somali Americans specifically. Weaponizing federal agencies against political opponents is classic authoritarianism — and pathetic loser behavior. DC stands with Ilhan.

That is why I am endorsing Tom Perriello for Congress in Virginia’s 5th District. I would be proud to fight alongside Tom to rid Washington of corruption."

DoorDash seems to not care that ICE agents are shooting their workers while they on the job. Community members are the ones who have gotten Wilber medical attention in detention and legal support — without a single shred of help from this multibillion dollar corporation profiting off his labor.

An NBC News article reads: “Garcés Perez, who Lincoln-Goldfinch said lives in Austin, is a DoorDash driver. In an email, a company spokesperson confirmed Garcés Perez was making a delivery at the time, adding that DoorDash is investigating and would not release more information “at this time.””

Trump is running full speed ahead toward authoritarianism and this week's ban on independent press is only the latest warning sign. Pay attention to the midterms. Work now to get out the vote, oppose all efforts to disrupt voting, and expect them to attempt to deny the results.

An official press release from the White House reads: "White House Access Is a Privilege — Not a Right. Last week, President Donald J. Trump removed CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House grounds after years of false reporting. The First Amendment protects their right to publish; it does not entitle them to a hard pass, briefing room seat, or place in the press pool.

Access changes are nothing new. What is new, however, is the sudden claim that it becomes sacred only when the outlets are friendly to the Radical Left. The rule was never “every outlet gets in.” It was always “our side stays in.”"

#4: The National Guard often supports ICE. National Guard members often patrol alongside federal police like ICE. These armed soldiers expand the capacity of federal police, and are becoming a key part of their strategy.

A group of three National Guard soldiers walk along a residential DC street on a sunny summer morning. Behind them walk a group of federal agents in khaki pants, navy blue polo shirts, khaki hats, sunglasses, and tactical vests.

Our country has an epidemic of gun violence. Tens of thousands of families lose loved ones every year because of it and Congress is past due to act. Trump doesn't care about fixing this problem. He wants to exploit a moment of fear to make people give up our civil liberties. Don't fall for it.

Truth Social post from user @realDonaldTrump: "Chicago violence is unchecked and at record levels. It has never been worse! This weekend 41 people were shot, 3 DEAD. These numbers are becoming normalized. It is out of control! The city will die if the Federal Government, a fine tuned crime fighting machine, is not invited in, by the Mayor or Governor, to HELP. I am awaiting the call. Nobody should be forced to live under these conditions. Like D.C. and others, they will have almost no crime, FAST! The State and City can’t do what I do. Governor Pritzker, CALL!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
