Timothy McVeigh seems like a forebearer of our current moment in many respects, but this license plate business is a bit too on the nose.

Using public land for homes isn't inherently bad since declining military bases and USPS real estate are near cities & could become mixed-use housing owned or leased by the govt. But Mike Lee wants suburban sprawl on land nowhere near where people work darrellowens.substack.com/p/will-selli...

And it shouldn't have taken a court to rule on it. It was clearly unconstitutional when it was passed. That didn't matter to our foolish state legislators. This is what they waste our tax dollars doing. What an embarrassment for our state. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Mike Johnson advocating for kidnapping children. Any Dem worth a shit will make it clear that anyone can buy a gaiter and a fake ICE vest. And he's saying go willingly with them. There is no reason a federal employee shouldn't have to show their face. And this should be an easy one to win.

Everyone in the chain of command who allowed this — from the platoon leaders to the 18th Airborne Corps commander — needs to be reprimanded if not relieved. We don't ask soldiers their political allegiance and we don't assign them tasks based on political allegiance.

Did you know there are billionaires in this country who own farms - LOTS of farms - and that your tax dollars are going to subsidize them? www.ewg.org/news-insight... #WasteAndFraud

The reconciliation bill's hikes in farm subsidies "are brazen.... the GOP doesn’t just spare millionaire farmers from cuts, they aggressively expand inefficient farm giveaways by $57 billion." And they "lavished the biggest subsidy increases on GOP parts of the country." [Chris Edwards, @cato.org]

It was never about going after “undocumented criminals” and “undocumented illegals” and people who didn’t come here the ‘right way’. They are removing LEGAL DOCUMENTATION from immigrants, who did go through the process. The “right” way. It is racism, and always was, racism.

If we had a functioning news media, they would be loudly pointing out these protests have been largely peaceful - and that Trump PARDONED the actually violent, actually insurrectionist mobs from Jan 6.

This is beyond delusional insanity, it needs its own new terminology for how devoid of reality it is. This man is a deranged lunatic. I live in L.A., am out doing errands. L.A. is exactly like it is on any other day, with a few hundred protestors in a couple of spots in a city of nearly 10,000,000

I am literally begging reporters to stop calling illegal shit “charting new territory” or other crap like that. Most of the public doesn’t know the law and they are counting on you and you are dropping the goddamn ball.

it's absolutely important to couch every statement from this guy in the context that he hired a person based solely on the credential that the guy strangled one of my neighbors to death. no background in software or finance, just murder.

The California National Guard just tear-gassed and fired impact munitions at reporters, children, and community leaders. Multiple injuries. National Guard has now declared an "unlawful assembly" on the streets. Not clear whether NG has legal authority to enforce that far away from federal buildings.

In a former life a looong time ago, I commanded a National Guard unit. Although though we were very well trained in our primary mission, I would never have put my men on the streets in a riot. It is not what soldiers are trained for. Federalizing troops without training in LA is inviting chaos.

ER doctor here! Please seek medical attention (go to the ER) if you are hit in the head with a ballistic. “Less lethal” weapons kill people all the time, in addition to causing permanent disabilities. If you don’t feel safe disclosing that you were protesting just say you were hit in the head, etc

Good lordy, this. this is such a common cop move that dozens with the Phoenix PD were caught passing around a challenge coin a few years ago that was referencing both a neo-Nazi slogan and shooting protesters in the groin.

California representatives did a check in where migrants were being detained. They found no beds, no food and no water. Children were among the detained.
