I was a HELL NO on funding Homeland Security when the house voted on it last week. That unfortunately passed.
But the Senate now has an opportunity to block the bill and demand changes and accountability to a completely out of control agency.
Not a PENNY more for ICE.

Alex Pretti.
Renee Good.
Say their names. Remember their lives. Honor their memories.
Donald Trump, Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, Greg Bovino, and every Republican who supports gunning down American civilians in our streets: This blood is on YOUR hands. (3/3)
In every video we’ve seen, he wasn't brandishing a gun or threatening officers. He was holding a phone—and backing away with his hands up.
*If* he was carrying a gun, Minnesota has open carry laws. It’s his 2nd Amendment right.
Even the NRA is saying DHS’s justification is total bullshit. (2/3)
🧵
Alex Pretti was a VA ICU nurse. Colleagues remember him as kind, warm, and caring.
He was a beloved son, brother, friend, and neighbor.
ICE agents murdered him in cold blood. In broad daylight.
And then they had the gall—the sheer, evil audacity—to call *him* a domestic terrorist. (1/3)
Mainers have a message for Donald Trump and Kristi Noem: Get your murderous immigration agents OUT OF MAINE.
On my way to Lewiston for the No ICE protest, but I’ve been watching the breaking news out of Minneapolis, where federal agents have shot and killed another person.
I’ve seen the video and it’s horrific.
This violent occupation has to end. ICE needs to GET OUT of MN and GET OUT of Maine.
Ginny’s contribution to our heritage lobster industry will never be forgotten. My love and thoughts are with her family and friends—and everyone whose lives were touched by this remarkable Mainer.
I’m so sad to hear that Ginny Oliver—known as the Lobster Lady—has passed away at the age of 105.
She was a true Mainer: salt of the Earth, hardworking, kind beyond words. I got to meet her a few years ago. Hearing her stories, seeing the passion she had for her work—it was an amazing experience.
ICE is using intimidation, harassment, and fear tactics against peaceful observers and protesters.
It is NOT illegal to record or observe ICE activity. Period.
Showing up at observers’ homes, calling their cell phones, and putting people on a “domestic terrorism” list are gross abuses of power.
It’s been a terrible week for our state. Noem and her lawless secret police are terrorizing Mainers, detaining lawful permanent residents, denying people due process, and causing widespread fear and chaos in our communities.
We need answers. We need accountability. And we need ICE OUT OF MAINE.
ICE’s Maine operation is a disaster. They’re terrorizing families, threatening observers, and acting outside their stated scope.
I’m demanding answers to critical questions including:
🔴 How many have been taken pursuant to VALID warrants?
🔴 How many have documentation?
🔴 Where are they being held?
For months, we’ve been hearing stories about ICE forcefully entering people’s homes without a judicial warrant.
Now we know why: DHS gave them the green light.
This is a clear and egregious violation of the 4th Amendment.
No wonder DHS tried to keep this under wraps. They knew it was illegal.
I am furious. Sickened. Outraged beyond words.
ICE detained this 5-year-old boy in Minnesota—then USED HIM AS BAIT.
His family has an active asylum case. They came through a legal port of entry. They are not criminals.
This isn't "law enforcement." It's cruelty for cruelty’s sake.
Let me be absolutely clear: DHS’s operation "Catch of the Day" does not serve the public interest in any way.
It exists solely to meet anti-immigration quotas.
There are so many questions.
I’m continuing to push for answers about this operation.
Mainers and new Mainers alike: Please stay safe, stay vigilant, and know your rights.
Of the 50 picked up yesterday how many were dangerous criminals who had warrants signed by a judge? How many were explained their rights + given due process? How many are here legally and have the paperwork to prove it? How many were targeted solely on the color of their skin? Where were they taken?
DHS says they have a “list” of around 1,400 people to round up in what they’re calling “Operation Catch of the Day” — a completely disgusting and inhumane name for their terror campaign in our state.
Last week it was Rollins and her “piece of chicken, piece of broccoli, corn tortilla, and one other thing.”
Today Bessent says having “5, 10, 12 homes” is a totally normal retirement strategy.
If these people were any more out of touch, they’d be orbiting the moon.
Here’s an idea: TAX THE RICH.
This week the House is expected to vote on the Homeland Security funding bill.
It does NOT include reforms proposed by Democrats like:
❌Preventing citizens from being detained
❌Banning enforcement actions at sensitive locations (like schools)
❌Making ICE remove their masks
I plan to vote NO.
And so are the American people—by standing up, pushing back, making your voices heard, and protecting your neighbors.
For our families, for our communities, for our democracy, and for a future free of chaos, cruelty, and stupidity—let’s stand together. (3/3)
