Full quote from ex-ICE director Tom Homan: "Trump comes back in January... I will run the biggest deportation force this country has ever seen. They ain’t seen shit yet. Wait until 2025.” Tonight in Florida Trump pledged to bring Homan back. Homan, BTW, is a listed Project 2025 contributor.

Thank you so much for turning out to support Rocky Mountain Wildlife Alliance and to hang with Atosha & Cleopatra (the owls) and Kingston & McPhee (the hawks) at Fan Expo Denver. You raised significant money for wildlife rehabilitation, and also Kingston took a shit on some of my calendars.

Pretty clear that the Federalist Society project to take over the courts for the far right is the most successful and consequential political effort in history. Only took them a few decades. Meanwhile, Dems are like "Let's not be hasty, blue slips serve an important function in preserving comity."

Sotomayor's dissent in State Dept v MuĂąoz is worth a read. She explains how the majority is coming for same-sex marriage. They are

"Biden is also expected to announce a work-visa program for current enrollees in Obama’s 2012 program, known as DACA, and others who were shut out of the program after the Trump administration called it an illegal amnesty" Remember, Trump and Miller have plans to deport all of these people

Mass deportation would mean the purging of 1m+ of the farmworkers who feed us, more than 20,000 teachers protected by #DACA, 1.6m workers in the contruction industry, and many other workers. It tear families apart and inflict unprecedented damage on the economy: americasvoice.org/blog/teacher...
