As soon as tomorrow, the House could hold a final vote on the MAGA spending bill that would give $70 billion more to ICE and Border Patrol. We’ve kept funding for Trump’s secret police blocked since January — and we need to flood our representatives with calls and emails to keep it that way.

President Donald Trump had ramped up pressure on the Palmetto State, but he fell short in his goal of ousting the state’s lone Democrat.

He has no idea what he's done or what to do now. Heavens help us all.
Screenshot of an X post by Gregg Carlstrom (@glcarlstrom). The post says Trump is calling journalists to workshop different timelines and goals for his war, listing varying reported aims from the Washington Post, Axios, the New York Times, and ABC, including “freedom for the people” of Iran, ending it in “two or three days,” possibly “four to five weeks,” and mentioning “three very good choices” to take control in Iran before saying those choices were killed. The post concludes that he doesn’t sound convinced and is “throwing spaghetti at the wall,” suggesting he wants to say he solved a long-standing problem.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives. We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

I've been here 24 hours, but already with what I've seen, well, I genuinely believe we're going to win. People here are well aware that what happens here impacts the entire country, that it sets the tone for resistance. ICE is angry, ICE is terrified, of how deeply unpopular it is.
