Shining a light on ICE

We’re shining a light on these egregious abuses and fighting back.   John, Yesterday, I was in Los Angeles with Democrats from the House Oversight Committee for a shadow hearing on the Trump administration’s rogue ICE agency. Los Angeles, like Phoenix, has been an epicenter of abuse …

You can bet this was ordered by Donald Trump and carried out by Pete Hegseth. But right now, that's besides the point.   The Department of War is coming after me because they don’t like what I have to say. When I was 22 years old, I swore an oath to the Constitution. I've upheld tha…
