James Talarico: I've heard credible reports that Ken Paxton has a serious medical condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice. That's why I haven't heard from him after 85 days when I first challenged him to a debate publicly. We're awaiting his answer.

Trump is helping Russia who is helping Iran attack and kill Americans. So that means Trump is knowingly taking steps to weaken the US and bolster Russia and its close ally, Iran. Does that make him a traitor? Let's have the debate.... www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.
