As A Bush-Appointed Judge Exposes The Lawlessness Of ICE and FBI Agents Raid Georgia Election Offices To Soothe A Mentally Declining Trump, Ilhan Omar Calls For The 25th Amendment

Plus, Maine nurses protest against Susan Collins


I’m glad to have today’s news brief for you. Thanks for being here.

The Dworkin Report reaches millions every week, covering the truth that corporate media sanitizes—if they cover it at all.

We don’t just report the news—we organize, and we deliver results. Our Midterm Accountability Project has already driven 600,000 calls and letters to Congress in the last year, with a goal of one million more before the midterms. We’ve also generated tens of billions of social media impressions in that time—trending two anti-ICE hashtags this week alone.

This is journalism that fights back, and it only works thanks to readers like you. Help fuel our movement by upgrading to a paid subscription today. You’ll get our daily briefings, access to exclusive interviews, and your subscription directly fuels our fight to win back Congress. Join now:


JUDGE SLAMS ICE

A federal judge appointed by George W. Bush rebuked ICE this week for completely disregarding court orders, providing a list of 96 separate violations in Minnesota during the last month alone.

While threatening to hold ICE’s director in contempt, Judge Patrick Schiltz wrote: “ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”

When a Bush appointee—who clerked for hardline conservative Antonin Scalia—makes a statement of this magnitude, it shows just how far off the rails Trump’s immigration abuses have gone.

MAINE NURSES STAND UP TO COLLINS

A group of Maine nurses showed up to protest at GOP Senator Susan Collins’ office this week. Chanting “Stop ICE!” loudly inside the building, they had one simple demand: “Vote no on any appropriations package that includes the Homeland Security Appropriations bill.”

Collins did what she does best—ignored her voters, publicly expressed concerns, then did what Trump wanted. But these nurses aren’t going anywhere. They’re preparing to ramp up the pressure on Collins, who is one of the Senate’s most spineless members.

SENATE DEMS BLOCK ICE FUNDING

Yesterday, Senate Democrats blocked the annual government spending package, taking a stand against ICE’s deadly operations. Their move forced Trump and Republicans to separate DHS funding from the broader spending package—leaving the rest of the government funded through a two-week extension.

MN Sen. Tina Smith made it clear: “These lawless ICE agents should be following the same rules that your local police department does. There has to be accountability.” Her colleague, NV Sen. Jacky Rosen, stated: “The abuses of power we are seeing from ICE in Minneapolis and across the country are un-American and cannot be normalized.”

CT Sen. Chris Murphy said Congress can’t fund a department “that is murdering American citizens, that is traumatizing little boys and girls across the country.” And Sen. Bernie Sanders took it a step further, saying ICE shouldn’t get “another penny” until DHS Secretary Kristi Noem is gone.

OMAR RESPONDS

MN Rep. Ilhan Omar was sprayed by a pro-Trump madman during a town hall event the other night with what police identified as apple cider vinegar. It was scary, because it could have been anything. But Omar wasn’t shaken—not one bit.

Immediately after the attack, Omar returned to the mic, saying: “Don’t let them have the show.” She added: “We are Minnesota strong. We will stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us.”

Trump tried to blame Omar for the attack, lying and saying it was likely staged. Omar scoffed at the suggestion, stating: “Maybe it is time for the 25th amendment to be invoked, because [Trump] certainly cannot remember what he said an hour ago.”

GEORGIA ELECTION RAID

Officials in Georgia are slamming the Trump regime’s raid of Fulton County’s election office on Wednesday, where federal agents seized 700 boxes of records from the 2020 election.

Dem Sen. Jon Ossoff called it a “seismic event,” warning: “This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal … This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections.”

Fulton County Commission Chairman Robb Pitts stated: “I’m a big boy. While we have grown accustomed to name-calling and rhetoric, we will not give one inch to those who seek to take control of our elections … Not today, not tomorrow, not ever.”

That’s the kind of resolve we need right now—and it’s exactly why our work matters. While Trump tries to intimidate election officials and everyone else under the sun, we’re exposing his authoritarian tactics and mobilizing the resistance to stop him.

And the work is paying off—we trended two anti-ICE hashtags this week while sending thousands of letters and making countless calls urging Congress to block ICE funding and remove Kristi Noem.

It’s all proof that momentum is on our side, but we can’t let up now. Please upgrade to a paid subscription to help fuel our fight:


Onward!

JUST A FEW COMMENTS OF MANY: 


TODAY. We boycott! Everything.

TODAY. The Senate may capitulate and fund 6 agencies.

See Schumer’s disconnect here? We must pull the PLUG to effect change. Why not now?

Oh! Some will be hurt! (Mostly those that live near the White House!)

All are being hurt now. Some are being murdered. PULL THE PLUG!


I 100% agree with .... We have seen Schumer capitulate in the past, and for what? Two more weeks of unrestrained, unconstitutional, criminal abuses? What negotiations? With Trump? With his GOP puppets? I fail to see the upside in giving in yet again.

Instead, we need to boycott every discretionary purchase and sustain that boycott until this regime falls. That includes big ticket items and small. Set a goal to cut your consumer spending whereever you can. I set a goal of cutting my total spending by 10%, but do what works for you and start today. Send what you save to Minneapolis based charities.


Don't forget that Hakeem Jeffries likes to capitulate too. I contact and/or call him and Schumer out regularly.

HAKEEM JEFFRIES is a recipient of AIPAC CONTRIBUTIONS! 


As you are surely aware, ISRAEL has continued killing GAZANS, continued their BLOCKADE of HUMANITARIAN supplies and DEMOLISHED UNWRA that was FEEDING GAZANS! ISRAEL is preparing ILLEGAL SETTLEMENTS in the WEST BANK. Armed ISRAELI SETTLERS are killing PALESTINIANS. Other nations condemn ISRAEL at the UN, but the US has veto power. GAZAN CHILDREN are dying from the COLD while ISRAEL refuses to allow supplies to enter. JUST MY OPINION: WE have received promotional USPS MAILINGS from HAKEEM JEFFRIES and returned it with the comment that WE DO NOT SUPPORT those what accept fudning from AIPAC and refuse to condemn ISRAEL'S GENOCIDE. AIPAC is an ANTI-DEMOCRACY organization, funded by the WEALTHY! AIPAC has attacked and DEFEATED candidates solely for their opposition to ISRAEL'S GENOCIDE. OPEN SECRETS: HAKEEM JEFFRIES: https://www.opensecrets.org/members-of-congress/hakeem-jeffries/summary?cid=N00033640 If HAKEEM JEFFRIES lacks a MORAL COMPASS to speak out against GENOCIDE, we will not support ANY DEMOCRATIC leadership that HAKEEM JEFFRIES leads.


WE have received numerous USPS promotions of/by HAKEEM JEFFRIES - to eaach one we respond regarding ANTI-DEMOCRACY AIPAC funding - IF YOU CAN'T SPEAK OUT AGAINST ISREAL'S GENOCIDE....who are you? 


I was just wowed by Omar's response. That's a very dangerous and scary situation to be in, but the resistance demands we keep pushing no matter what they throw at us.

Yes, she was poised to throw a punch.

I saw her in an interview. She said she grew up with three brothers so she wasn't intimidated

Any woman who grew up with three older brothers is not afraid to defend herself. Trust me, I am one of them women who backs down to no one, often to my husband's chagrin. As my husband and I watched the disturbing video of the deranged Trump supporter lunging toward Omar, he looked at me & says, "Another Lisa who is not afraid of anything!" Kudos to the many strong, intelligent and courageous women who have been instrumental in this fight against Trump

Women power!!! 🩵✊️🩵 💙💪💙 When we fight, we win! 🇺🇸


Good for you! We need more people like you and Ilhan.


Let me see if I understand:This fucking POS POTUS who just had millions of voter rolls stolen from Fulton County Georgia, without any recourse from these millions of Georgians - Then today this idiot is suing Americans for $10BILLION dollars for leaking his tax returns which should have been released in 2015?????? Fuck HIM . I think there should be a class action suit by All Georgians against DJT and this regime. period full stop.


Republicans cheat to win. It's the only way they can.

If REPUBLICANS didn't LIE no one would elect them!


I’m so proud of the people in Minnesota & Georgia! If we stop our ineffective Democrats like Schumer from giving in, we can make serious headway. All old Democrats who got complacent need to retire with some dignity. I’m ashamed they haven’t been fighting for our rights for years. Didn’t they know how much money was in our government & all of this time? They did nothing when Republicans took money out of SS & never paid it back? Remember that?! It looks to be like there were millions more. Or was over a billion? Trump destroyed the West Wing & had plans or concepts of a plan to illegally remodel it to his tacky cheap idea of a ballroom? We don’t need a ballroom!


INVOKE THE 25th!!!!

DEMS AND REPUBS should all be calling out this lawless, unconstitutional, fucking hypocrite POS POTUS!

I agree , DHS gets not one more penny, until NOEM is in jail!''


Impeaching Noem is just low hanging fruit. The whole tree is rot. trump must go... Everyday there are new findings of things this despicable creature has done, or set in place to do... What can be done to remove the regime since congress and the doj only do Trump's bidding?


Stephen Miller💩💩


Americans don't take the bait! These are all distractions and for the headline of the day! These cowards arrested Don Lemon in the middle of the night so he would have to stay in Jail, while this POS POTUS coin-operated felon sues the IRS for $10Billion! That is basically suing Americans over his tax returns that should have been released in fucking 2015??????? LEMON WILL GET OFF THESE BOGUS CHARGES, BUT TRUMP STILL SUES AMERICANS, AGAIN AND AGAIN!

Let's see which one of these the bought media covers the most! PROTECT FREE SPEECH!

FIGHT FOR THE TRUTH! PROTECT INDEPENDENT JOURNALISTS!


Speaking of independent journalists…the admin has tried to go after Meidas Touch.

"The thing about rights is that in the end you can't prove what should be considered a right."

— Paul Farmer

The doctor who spent his life in Haiti's poorest communities knew this truth in his bones: rights aren't natural laws waiting to be discovered—they're agreements we fight like hell to make real. When someone tells you healthcare isn't a right, housing isn't a right, dignity isn't a right, they're not revealing cosmic truth. They're revealing whose suffering they've decided doesn't matter. So here's your survival move: stop arguing about what should be rights and start acting like human dignity is non-negotiable. Feed someone. Shelter someone. Defend someone. The philosophical debate ends when you make someone's material reality better. Rights become real when enough people refuse to live in a world without them.

Don Lemon was arrested Scott.

They will come for all of us eventually.

I’m pleased the Senate Democrats showed the backbone we were looking for. The Big, Ugly Bill gave DHS billions of dollars with no requirements for accountability. That money has been squandered by Noem and her house mate, Corey Lewandowski. No more money until it meets the credible law enforcement rules exercised by all other police agencies. The thuggery has to stop. As for Demented Donny and his raid on the Fulton County election files, this is not about the 2020 election he lost, but the attempted subversion of the 2026 and 2028 elections. We need to be aware of every trick this criminal administration tries and react immediately. And what was up with Tulsi Gabbard at the scene of the Fulton County election office looking like a character from a crime movie.
