Masked federal thugs on our streets killing and terrorizing immigrants & citizens. And now live-streaming public executions. Trump’s America. A dark, ugly, fearful, cruel place. Please American voters, in November, tell the world this is not who we are.👇

The only countries that now hold public executions are Iran, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, and Somalia. Keep the United States of America off this list.

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.

I wish Democrats would start talking about the fact that 85% to 95% of these detainees go to private detention camps for profit. Profits that in part are kicked back to the GOP in the form of campaign donations. #ICE theintercept.com/2025/07/10/c...

The $45 billion for immigration detention in the "Big, Beautiful Bill" represented a long-sought win for private prisons.

Why have so many people fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because corporations and billionaires rigged the system in their favor — and a bought-off political establishment let it happen. It's time to fix the system.

Why is Trump shouting out Russ Vought and saying, "we have some big surprises coming up in a few weeks, right Russ? He's gonna be one of the important people in the history of our country." Remember when they told us Project 2025 was fake? It’s not.
