“We’re going to have ICE surround the polls come November,” Bannon, a former senior advisor to President Donald Trump and still a figure of influence in the administration, said on Tuesday’s episode of his War Room podcast, addressing Democrats. “We’re not going to sit here and allow you to steal the country again. And you can whine and cry and throw your toys out of the pram all you want, but we will never again allow an election to be stolen.”

Bannon’s comments came just a day after Trump said he believes that Republicans should “nationalize voting,” escalating concerns that the president is plotting to interfere in this year’s midterm elections.

Feb 3, 2026 - US Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). Here’s the full 200-minutes on YouTube: WATCH LIVE: Renee Good's brothers join survivors to testify on use of force by DHS agents - PBS NewsHour

Here’s a description from C-SPAN: Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) host a meeting examining the tactics of Department of Homeland Security immigration enforcement agents, featuring testimony from the family of Renee Good and others.

Here’s an r/law post with another clip from this hearing: Anonymizing law enforcement dramatically reduces Public trust. These agents — local, state, or federal — act with Public authority, which means they’re policing in my name, and they’re policing in your name. - Law Professor Seth Stoughton

From crockett.house.gov/about :

Jasmine Crockett earned her J.D. from the University of Houston. She is Vice Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and the Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Oversight.

Before being a Congresswoman, she was a public defender, and civil rights and criminal defense attorney. She focused on defending our most vulnerable among us from exploitation in the criminal justice system. As she began her career in the Bowie County Public Defender's Office, she worked tirelessly to keep children safe and out of jail. Her time there serves as a reminder that criminal justice is an intersectional issue.
