Raid a critic, pay a crony: Rep. Castro on Rep. Ilhan Omar raid and ICE contractors
The Trump Justice Department’s raid involving sitting Congresswoman Ilhan Omar has drawn widespread condemnation. Rep. Joaquin Castro says the case reflects an effort to intimidate the president’s critics, warning that Trump wants lawmakers to “think twice about crossing him.” Meanwhile, Castro accuses Trump of using taxpayer dollars to enrich his family and friends as Americans struggle with soaring gas prices and the cost of basic goods, saying, “Their money literally being wasted.”
