If you are kidnapping your citizens with no due process to take away their freedom and trying to silence media, law firms, and universities for exercising free speech, you don't get to call yourself "Leader of the Free World."

I didn’t have the Supreme Court destroying the authority of federal district courts on my bingo card. But in retrospect that’s perhaps where all this shadow docket decision-making was going all along. Really scary stuff.

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers. Easy money, no risk. Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime. @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

On balance, I was more comfortable with Fox employees lying about wars than running them.

Until I see solid evidence to the contrary, I'm gonna assume he bombed Iran because we called him a chicken.

Last word from me tonight: don’t let anyone portray Greg Abbott as a hero on behalf of THC. He’s not. He’s a useful idiot who got harangued by hemp lobbyists and is politically smarter than Dan Patrick, who made the ban his whole dumb thing this year. #txlege

No Tax on Tips Is a Deceptive Ploy; Congress Should Raise the Minimum Wage Instead Over the next 10 years, the Raise the Wage Act would have a total benefit to affected workers of $700 billion, compared with about $39 billion from “no tax on tips” in the House bill.

I really wish bad nurses and doctors didn't tarnish the healthcare profession when there are so many good providers out there who actually want to help. It sucks and we have to call out the bullshit when we see it or it will never change.

The fact that our military was perfectly happy to use weapons abroad in violation of the War Powers Act doesn't bode well for us when they are asked to use weapons at home in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

I remember learning in school about the concentration camps set up for ethnic Japanese people on the West Coast duing WWII. I wondered, how did people let their neighbors get taken away? What fever or mania had gripped the country? I don't wonder anymore.

Why is it okay for Andrew Cuomo to sexually harass people? Why is that something the Democratic establishment is officially endorsing?

Donald Trump just unilaterally bombed Iran. A masked gang is terrorizing our streets. America has rapidly devolved into an authoritarian state. That's why, today, The Onion has purchased a full page ad in today's New York Times with a simple plea to Congress: Sit back and do absolutely nothing.

It’s not just that the President of the United States has announced on social media that the US has bombed Iran, it’s that the President of the United States bombed Iran so that he could announce it on social media.

A lot of people still don't understand why people say the prison industry is the new slavery. It's because, well, it is. In the 13th amendment of the constitution, it says, "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime." It means, if you go to prison, we own you.

Trump has unilaterally conducted illegal strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities and therefore started a war between the United States and Iran on behalf of the Israeli government without authorization by the congress, in opposition to the constitution and congressional war powers.

The power to declare war lies solely with the United States Congress. President Trump’s decision to launch direct military action against Iran without Congressional approval is unconstitutional and deeply reckless.

Donald Trump bombed Iran tonight, not because they are about to have nuclear weapons (they are not), but because he needed a distraction from his tanking poll numbers and his deeply unpopular "Big Beautiful Bill." He doesn't care who gets killed, Iranians or Americans, to help HIM.
