I saw someone post this and thought it had to be a joke. Nope, this is a real NY Times headline.

The idea that a president (especially one with authoritarian aspirations) could gain full control over each state's National Guard forces is profoundly alarming. This would effectively give him a domestic military apparatus that bypasses traditional checks like governors or even Congress.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional. We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

What do marriage and political views have to do with healthcare? Absolutely nothing. But Trump’s new VA rules let doctors turn veterans away just for being unmarried or a Democrat.

Republicans and Dems find common ground in telling Trump: No War With Iran! Republican Thomas Massie: “This is not our war.. . I’m introducing a War Powers Resolution tomorrow to prohibit our involvement. I invite all members of Congress to cosponsor this resolution.” Democrat AOC: “Signing on!”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump directs ICE to expand deportations in Democratic-run cities, undeterred by protests. But it's okay if you are undocumented in a red state because those farmers and restaurants need people for menial labor jobs It was always about punishing Blue States

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

Lots of people pointing out that all of Trump’s cruelest policies function to extract protection money—here, from the agriculture industry, which has gotten him to back off rural deportations. But don’t forget that he also wants to make everything about his base’s cultural resentments.

I'm a US Army Veteran. 250 years ago on this day, an Army of the people stood up and said "There are no kings in America." Today, that happened again. To everyone who showed, tonight I get to thank you for your service in defending this Nation. Let there be no kings in America for another 250 years.

Republicans will claim Padilla — one of the kindest people I know — is a menacing man who stormed the briefing with smoke coming out of his ears. But the video doesn't lie. He didn’t lunge. He announced himself. He just wanted answers.

If I was Commander in Chief and I’d gathered the troops, I would remind them how Washington, after the Revolution, at the height of his fame when people would have gladly crowned him King, made a show of surrendering his military power to Congress. Because there are no Kings in America.

MSNBC with a great speed debunk of DHSs justifications for tackling and handcuffing Sen. Padilla. Padilla is the top Dem on the Senate Judiciary immigration subcommittee -- there's no way Noem (who meets regularly with senators on this topic) didn't know who he is.

Holy crap. And here in the US there's not a single competant cabinet member who can handle such an event. Is there anyone in the Trump regime who could actually not make this worse?

In Dallas, this brave soldier protested against ICE, voicing strong opposition to the erosion of constitutional rights. & Trump’s deployment of Marines to Los Angeles. She emphasized, “We refuse to be used to undermine constitutional freedoms.” Take hope: if there’s one, there are more.

IMPORTANT: Stop calling the troops in LA National Guard Troops. They are not. When Trump activated them against the wishes of the Gov they became FEDERAL troops… like the 82nd airborne with no Law enforcement power! Don’t let them confuse you!

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

If you’re watching @maddow.msnbc.com’s A Block you understand that people who stand up for other people can change the course of those people’s lives & our history. We have the power to refuse Trump’s path forward. Protesting actually works. Let’s go.
