Just to reiterate:

Trump admin are trying to give Senators an excuse, any excuse, not to block funding to DHS.

We need to make sure that doesn’t work. Don’t let up. Keep them all afraid.

They’re afraid. Hit them harder.

“For the past seven months, Bovino has been the public face of [ICE’s] traveling immigration crackdown”

“Bovino worked outside his agency’s chain of command and appeared to relish his role as a political actor”

“sudden demotion”

#YouShouldBeAfraid is a hashtag to adopt, from Cory Doctorow's ( @pluralistic) "Radicalized - A Short Story About Healthcare and Desperation"

It's well worth the read, (about 20-30 minutes at most)
