We're reminding President Trump what it means to be born in the U.S.A. We're honored that the one and only Bruce Springsteen trusted us with use of his iconic anthem ahead of our landmark Supreme Court case, where we’re challenging President Trump’s attempt to overturn birthright citizenship.

All of us are part of the fabric of this nation — one that wouldn't be possible without birthright citizenship. Thank you to Bruce Springsteen for lending us his song to remind President Trump: If you're born in the U.S.A., this is your home.

Ep 301 of Leverage Redemption S3 had a villa in France full of evil billionaires colluding to pillage trillions in public goods who were keeping a small town activist in the basement until they could execute her led by a guy who admired Putin, and we did not, in fact, go hard enough. Apologies.

People here are outside patrolling their neighborhoods in this, trying to keep their neighbors safe from lawless armed masked goons. Armed with whistles and vests, they are essentially fighting a war against their own government and its ethnic cleansing campaign.

In 2003, as part of a massive crackdown on civil liberties, Congress passed a bill creating the Department of Homeland Security, and with it, ICE. Since then, ICE agents have wreaked havoc on our communities. Enough is enough.

Stop ICE's Attack On Our Communities
An ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. This news is devastating. ICE must immediately withdraw its 2,000 agents from Minnesota and Congress must block any new funding to immigration enforcement.
