🇬🇧 Conservative MP Mark Pritchard: “I have supported Israel at all costs - today I want to say I got it wrong. I condemn Israel for what it is doing to the Palestinian people in Gaza and indeed in the West Bank… the life of a Palestinian child is as precious as the life of a Jewish child."

If guilty people don't have Due Process rights, then innocent people don't have Due Process rights, because we don't know if they're innocent or guilty until we have a trial or hearing.

“No low is too low for MAGA,” Crockett wrote on Wednesday in light of the threats received by Tougaloo. “...now explain to me why an institution would be receiving threats because of the commencement speech that I GAVE.” www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

Trump is trying to stifle free speech. He's attacking the press. He's kidnapping U.S. residents and sending them to foreign prisons without due process. When asked if he would uphold the Constitution, he says "I don't know." If this isn't dictatorship, I don't know what is.

A white woman was caught on camera saying the n word to a 5 year old child. She is now playing the victim and has raised over $500k through a crowdfunding campaign. Let’s counter this by highlighting Black stories, food, culture, and with a lot of respect. #MomSky #Voices4Victory

Foreign films are a national security threat? We’re shaking our heads. We’d laugh if this wasn’t such dangerous, authoritarian rhetoric. What other countries do this? Russia and China.

Repugnant. Doubly so because opposing these crimes is now considered banned behavior in the United States. U.S. support for Israel's campaign of war crimes in Gaza is one of the most despicable, indefensible chapters in the checkered history of US foreign policy.

Tariffs are taxation without representation. We wrote a whole Declaration of Independence about it. Threw tea in the harbor and everything.

A reminder: Both sheriffs and local police have the right to refuse ICE detainers. These requests are voluntary and not legally enforceable under federal law. Across the country, many sheriffs and police departments choose not to cooperate and that choice is fully within their legal rights.

My favorite unintended consequence of Trump's foolish trade war with China would be if MAGA hats started costing $100+ or, better yet, became completely unavailable.

Duckworth on if she's open to voting to confirm Mike Waltz: "I think everybody on that Signal chain needs to be fired ... he's failing up ... I'm not open to voting for him, no, because he's already demonstrated he's incapable of doing the most basic thing, which is handling classified information."
