  2. Federal judge again blocks Noem’s attempt to limit Congress’ access to ICE facilities – Democracy Docket

    Federal judge again blocks Noem’s attempt to limit Congress’ access to ICE facilities

    A federal judge again blocked Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem’s efforts to hamstring congressional oversight of federal immigration detention facilities. 

    Monday’s ruling marks the second time in as many months that U.S. District Judge Jia M. Cobb temporarily halted Noem’s attempt to require that members of Congress provide notice seven days before they conduct in-person oversight visits to immigration detention facilities.

    Cobb, an appointee of former President Joe Biden, previously ruled in December that Noem couldn’t enforce the Department of Homeland Security’s advanced notice policy because it violated federal appropriations law. 

    DHS and its sub-agencies are barred from using funds to deny members of Congress access to “any facility operated by or for the Department of Homeland Security used to detain or otherwise house aliens” when they are conducting oversight.

    However, Noem responded to the court order with a nearly identical policy, though she ordered agents to carry out the new rule only with funding from President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBB), which she claimed was not subject to traditional appropriations requirements.

    Democratic representatives who sued over Noem’s previous rule asked Cobb last month to also strike down DHS’s new notice policy. They argued that it would be impossible for the Trump administration to enforce the new policy solely with OBBB funds.

    In her ruling Monday, Cobb said that the representatives, who are represented by Democracy Forward*, will likely succeed in their argument.

    “Today’s decision restores Congress’s ability to expose dangerous detention conditions, protect people – including US citizens – who are in government custody, and enforce the law when the administration refuses to do so,” Skye Perryman, the president and CEO of Democracy Forward, said in a statement.

    Noem’s second attempt at requiring advanced notice only came to light after three Minnesota Democrats — Reps. Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig and Kelly Morrison — were denied entry while attempting to conduct oversight on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility outside of Minneapolis. 

    The lawmakers attempted to visit the facility after ICE officer Jonathan Ross killed Minneapolis resident Renee Good amid the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration enforcement operation in the city.

  3. Well, I'm certainly glad that #AngieCraig spent 40 seconds yelling at republicans over the #ICE murder, but I'm not sure why progressive representatives aren't telling the fascist members of congress to go fuck themselves every goddamn day of the week.

    My old rep #AngieCraig is on there. No surprise. She is awful as I have pointed out here before. She is also running for Tina Smith's Senate seat. Peggy Flanagan is a far far better choice. We need to defeat Craig and make Flanagan the Dem candidate. #MN #Minnesota #USpol #MNpol

  5. Hey #Minnesota people.

    #AngieCraig was my CD2 rep until we moved recently. She has a terrible voting record on all things #israel #palestine

    She takes lots of #AIPAC money and votes in a way that I’m convinced shows she’s an anti-#palestinian racist. In general she’s too “centrist” (ie, conservative) for me. #PeggyFlanagan is my choice.

    Craig more than doubles Flanagan’s Q3 fundraising • Minnesota Reformer minnesotareformer.com/briefs/c

  7. Live: Manhunt on for shooter in Rep. #MelissaHortman #assassination

    Authorities said suspect impersonated a police officer, and a “manifesto” was recovered with a list of lawmaker names.

    by Star Tribune staff, June 14, 2025

    Excerpt: "#Minnesota Second District Rep. #AngieCraig declined to say if she was included in a list of other elected officials the gunman sought to target, adding that she would let law enforcement reveal those details. But, she added: 'I have armed folks in my driveway right now.'

    "Craig said she is sheltered in place with armed security protecting her and was forced to cancel her planned appearance at a #NoKings rally in Rochester. She said the shooter had literature that showed he may have been aware of the multiple rallies taking place across the state.

    "But even before the shooting, Craig said she’s already had to increase security measures on her own.

    " 'Unfortunately, we’ve seen a rise in political threats of violence for some time now,' she said. 'I don’t do public events anymore without private security or police presence in my own district. Last night at the Humphrey Mondale dinner, I had private security there with me. It’s just become part of what we do.' "

    Representative Angie Craig (MN): “I have no idea why we think it's a good idea to repeal a tax on silencers when we are going to feed fewer children in our country as a result of this. It's a moral damn failure is what it is."

  9. Just saw a TV ad for #AngieCraig (MN-CD2) about #healthcare and prices of prescription medications paid for by...
    #FairShakePAC a pro-#cryptocurrency #PAC (Hmm, hidden agenda?)

    (Good to see #AIPAC isn't the only group she'll sell out to.)

    @molly0xfff

    Before you @ me know that I will vote for her because she's the D. But I sure wish I had a better choice.

  10. #AngieCraig has a very stupid ad where she's driving around on a loud ATV, and I hate it a lot.

  11. Sadly, our potential congressional majority relies on cowards like #AngieCraig. Let's just say that my support for them is as strong (and transactional) as theirs is for Biden.

  12. @GottaLaff @lisamelton Emmer is smarter, says this person just #AngieCraig’s district away. But he will still face the same conundrum, unless and until Members of the R caucus are freed to vote their will (as they were on Wednesday evening on the Defense bill amendments).

  13. "While taking a shot at House Speaker Kevin #McCarthy, Democratic Rep. #AngieCraig just introduced a new bill to temporarily strip away the paychecks of members of #Congress during a government #shutdown"

    Sounds like a fine idea that most will not support because they are self-serving bastards.
