I was stationed in Naples, Italy as part of NATO when the Berlin Wall came down and Soviet Union collapsed. My Italian colleagues told me the US was in NATO to defend Europe against Germany. No one was scared of Russia. It was Germany that started two World Wars in 30 years.

I did theater for ~15 years, and so much of acting is having the time and resources to be able to go audition for roles in the first place. Not having a car meant I couldn't even try for certain gigs. Being overly poor meant having to take time off from theater (which didn't pay a living wage). Etc.

For decades, the American branch of the Catholic Church has openly supported Republicans. Because of ABORTION! Now they’re upset about other Republican policies and actions. Sounds like another Leopard’s eating face party thing.

Today I joined House Democrats at ICE headquarters in DC to demand Kristi Noem's impeachment & voted NO on funding for DHS. Not a dollar more until DHS ends its violence & abuse of power. Trump's federal agents killed two Americans in broad daylight. We are not backing down.

Senator, I have always admired you. But now I think you are wrong. ICE cannot be “reformed.” It is essentially a corrupt organization, a military force loyal to the president and not the Constitution. ICE agents by design have no accountability and no restrictions. Shut them down!
