Despite promises to go after the ‘worst of the worst,’ their efforts have done little but terrorize families, including mixed-status families, households with immigrants who have been in the country for decades, parents of U.S. citizens, and U.S. citizens themselves.
Homan has been one of the chief architects of the Trump administration’s cruel, hardline mass deportation tactics.
UTEP’s embrace of right-wing politics in the last few years has been alarming and is unreflective of El Paso. As a loving, welcoming community, the invitation of Tom Homan is contrary to the values most El Pasoans hold dear.
🧵
Step 1: Implement tariffs (aka taxes)
Step 2: Realize this raised the cost of living and is the opposite of what you promised and they (among many, many other things) have made you unpopular
Step 3 (we are here): Begin reversing tariffs
Step 4: cross fingers prices come down and take credit
I hope it’s abundantly clear that Republicans don’t care about you.
They only care about themselves and billionaires.

Our service members and their families sacrifice so much for our country and the values we hold dearly.
To each and every one of our veterans: thank you for service. May we continue to honor you each and every day.
“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One.” - Donald Trump, August 2024
I thank her, not only for what she has accomplished, but for the example she leaves behind.
It is one of the greatest honors of my career not just to have served alongside her, but to have learned so much from her.
As she steps away from public office, we celebrate a legacy defined by grace, grit, and a profound love of country.
She has been a North Star for so many, having illuminated a path of progress, compassion, and courage for us all.
Throughout her decades of service, she has guided our nation through some of its darkest hours and championed transformative legislation that will shape the lives of Americans for generations to come.
Speaker Pelosi has been the most consequential leader of our time, a history maker, and pillar of unmatched strength, strategy, and brilliance.

The public should take note that the Trump administration was more than willing to weaponize hunger for political purposes.
We've seen the Trump administration jump through hoops and find billions for Argentina, private planes, and more but refuse to support Americans in need in a time a crisis.
Last week, federal courts reaffirmed what we knew to be true: withholding SNAP funding is illegal.
It should never have taken the courts to require the Trump administration to act and prevent millions of Americans and thousands of El Pasoans from going hungry.
“The absolute worst part of working at a food bank is when you gotta tell people, 'that's all we got today. We're out.' And you know you can't send them anywhere because they're going to be out, too.”
www.npr.org/2025/10/29/g...
Millions of Americans, including thousands of El Pasoans, will be going hungry starting tomorrow because the president is choosing not to use $6 billion in available emergency SNAP funding.
Instead, his focus is on his White House renovations.
By refusing to accept the responsibility that comes with controlling our ENTIRE government, Republicans have put us on a path to decimate our economy.
On top of their One Big Beautiful Bill and tariffs, our economy can’t afford to take a $14 billion hit.
www.cnbc.com/2025/10/29/g...
So, to be clear: the SNAP cuts coming this week impacting 42 million Americans who will have a harder time putting food on the table are a choice made by an administration that couldn’t care less about anything but enriching themselves and their cronies.
