Dear Trump voters, You wanted mass deportations. Well, hundreds of thousands of people have been deported. NOW WHAT? • Did you get that job they supposedly took from you? • Did grocery prices drop? • Is rent cheaper? • Did your health insurance premiums drop? #TrumpsAbuseOfPower 🧵

This is about Ilhan Omar. But it's also about control, intimidation, & authoritarianism. The message is: we can do this to a member of Congress; no foreign-born American is safe. The administration is using fear as a tactic to discourage people from voicing opposition.

The ICE officer who faces charges for road raging in Minneapolis (pulling a gun on a random motorist who blocked him from driving his unmarked SUV on the shoulder) broke into tears on the stand and said he was under a lot of stress, ok?

Morgan, who was abruptly called up to the Twin Cities from Washington, D.C., said he did not want to join the surge because he was unfamiliar with the area and had heard reports of animosity toward immigration officers.

“I’m not used to that, I’ve never seen something like that in policing,” he said.

The agent broke down in tears while testifying about feeling unsafe and overwhelmed during Operation Metro Surge, describing the atmosphere as a “riot” where he faced relentless harassment, racial slurs and threats of death.

Through a shaky voice, Morgan described the toll his brief deployment took on him and his family.

“I’ve never experienced something like this before,” he said. “I had to take my daughter out of school… because I did the job I’m supposed to do.”

Morgan’s second-degree assault charges stem from a Feb. 5 incident during the surge, when state prosecutors say he illegally drove an unmarked SUV on a Minneapolis freeway shoulder before pointing a firearm at the occupants of a white Cadillac that repeatedly swerved to block him.

WOW. Kristi Noem and Elon Musk, among others, "chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an impeccable record of public service. ... The attacks against Ms. Comans were based entirely on false information" and many officials "knew [they] were untrue."

In conducting this hearing, the Court is not called upon to resolve factual disputes between
the parties. The facts set forth in this Memorandum Opinion and Order were proposed by the
Plaintiff, unobjected to by the Government, and then deemed admitted by the Court. Dkts. 74, 75,
77.2 These facts establish that high-ranking government officials, including then Secretary of DHS
Kristi Noem and Elon Musk, engaged in a coordinated public relations campaign to impugn the
personal and professional integrity of Ms. Comans. For reasons unfathomable to this Court,
officials chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an
impeccable record of public service. In short, Ms. Comans was professionally targeted and
personally attacked by government officials for no legitimate reason. The attacks against Ms.
Comans were based entirely on false information, and many government officials knew the
accusations were untrue at the time they were made. With no regard for the truth and with no
consideration for the personal and professional effect on Ms. Comans, government officials
exploited their access to mass media outlets to broadcast false information. These false
statements reached hundreds of millions of people. The purpose of this Order is, to the best of
this Court’s ability, to correct the public record and establish as a matter of law that the
statements made by these officials about Ms. Comans were objectively and demonstrably false.
