Our 1787 Constitution became law 237 yrs ago today when NH ratified it June 21, 1788, because Article VII made that new Constitution binding in all 13 states once the 9th ratified it, superseding Article XIII of the Articles of Confederation, which had impossibly required unanimity for every change.

Nope. Don’t fall for the “I know a guy who voted for Trump who was deported.” Plenty of US citizens who voted for Trump know someone who was deported. That could be true. But Undocumented people are not voting. That’s been debunked over and over.

We can disagree over immigration policy. But we should all be able to agree that immigrants should be treated like human beings and not demonized for seeking a better life for themselves and their families.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

"Two weeks" is Trump's standard time frame for every decision he doesn't want to make (including his demand that Putin give him an answer on Ukraine) www.axios.com/2017/12/15/t...

This framing is beneath contempt. The Christian right and MAGA launched an unprecedented assault on the civil rights of a tiny minority and successfully weaponized the pseudoliberal establishment - led by the NYT - to provide it with a medical controversy pretext that doesn’t actually exist.

If the immigrants were white, they would be treated like human beings by white Conservative Americans. There would be compassion and kindness. There would be creativity in seeking solutions. There would be no lazy stereotypes or racial slurs. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-right-...

When they can pretend the violence came from the left, they insist all Democrats are responsible and ideology is to blame. When there's no denying the violence came from the right, though, they back off and pretend ideology had nothing to do with it. Certainly not anything they said.

Now that the Minnesota shooter has been caught and it is an indisputable fact that he is a MAGA pro-life psychopath, I am sure all the people who lied and said he was a democrat will apologize and correct themselves.

Trump is in a foreign country today trashing American Democrats, trashing American cities, and advocating for Putin. In other words, nothing has changed from his previous trips.

REMINDER: Netanyahu convinced Trump in 2018 to withdraw US from Iran nuclear deal that Obama and allies had negotiated. That Deal would've prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.

The political assassinations in MN = domestic terrorism. A reminder that the guy now running the DHS division responsible for combating domestic terror & targeted attacks is a 22 yr old with no federal experience, and whose last job was his own lawn mowing biz. Dems should now be screaming this.

Undocumented immigrants contribute nearly $100 billion in taxes every year. Meanwhile, the wealthiest 1% dodge $163 billion in taxes annually. The real drain on America isn’t coming from the border — it’s coming from the boardroom.

Magas will love hearing this: Obama ended Iran’s nuclear capabilities peacefully during his terms as POTUS. Because he was competent and not a traitor. Trump scrapped the agreement in 2018. This entire thing is on the usurper. It’s trump’s fault. #ETTD
