People with a platform and audience need to stop echoing this right-wing frame. Let’s use our critical thinking and ground our analysis in history.

Adams will go down as one of the worst mayors in NYC history.
NEW: A memo prepared by City Hall and distributed to migrant shelter operators gives workers a broad exception to allow ICE officers to enter shelters without a warrant, undercutting both the City's longstanding "sanctuary laws" and previous guidance.

There was a mass raid in Denver this morning. Community came together to send a strong signal of solidarity. This is how you show up! Democrats in congress need to take a lesson.
🚨✊🏽HAPPENING NOW – A massive, spontaneous protest has swept the streets of Denver in response to ICE raids that began this morning. Trump made immigrant communities in Colorado one of the primary targets of his divisive rhetoric on the campaign trail. But the people of Colorado are standing up to say NO to mass deportations!

All these Dem operatives know what to do when confronted with the party’s shortcomings is deflect and punch down. This is why the party lost.
Yeah. It’s DEMOCRATS fault that Trump wants to turn Gaza into a parking lot. I was called a genocidal baby killer for the last year for supporting Kamala— because I had enough COMMON SENSE to know that THIS is what would have happened.

Guantanamo has been used for mass immigrant detention before. It was wrong then and it’s wrong now.

There is a long history of human rights abuses in Guantanamo. Both Obama and Biden administrations promised to shut it down. Now we’re witnessing the repopulation of this prison that should’ve been closed years ago.
NEW: A military flight carrying migrants is expected to head to Guantanamo Bay today. In recent days, attorneys at DHS and Pentagon were still trying to determine whether it was legal to take the unprecedented step of flying migrants from the US southern border to the facility.

Senate Dems are not putting much of a fight against Trump’s mass deportation agenda and nominees.
