This is what military control looks like. Feel safer now⁉️: "San Diego city officials denounced the operation and questioned the use of rifles and stun grenades for a worksite enforcement raid, which ultimately led to the public’s response." www.yahoo.com/news/alarmin...

If an unfriendly foreign power was attempting to dismantle American science we might well have viewed it as an act of war. As it stands, our government is doing this to us. We are, in effect, committing an act of unilateral intellectual and scientific disarmament. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

State Rep Jake Auchincloss took part in Sunday’s protest. He says that the town of Milford doesn’t condone the act of detaining a student. “If you’re here illegally and you break the law, you should be deported,” Auchincloss said. www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

Democrats’ message should surely be: What Sen. Ernst really means here is that the donors, lobbyists, and elites Sen. Ernst now hangs around with don’t much care about some less well-off people dying.

Warning: this is going to be how they handle EVERYTHING now. They’ll call the Goon squad, the TACO Gestapo & arrest anyone who questions what they’re doing. 🤬

@apnews.com How is this NOT news

Yes, that's what it is. BTW...ICE arrests without Habeas Corpus is HUMAN TRAFFICKING

Campus crackdowns do not only/primarily impact Jewish students. Having said that! For @newrepublic.com, I wrote about Jewish students disciplined for activism and the dissonance that comes from being Jewish and having education disrupted in the name of Jewish safety newrepublic.com/article/1958...

Oh, that's what Habeas Corpus is! a legal principle... ensuring that no one can be held without lawful justification. The term literally means "you shall have the body," referring to the requirement for a detainee to be brought before a judge to assess the legality of their detention.

Department of Homeland Security officers invading a congressman's offices and arresting a staffer who tried to stop them is very, very bad. gothamist.com/news/homelan...

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules. It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.

Part of long-running subterfuge...smuggling Ukrainian drones into Russian territory for secret assaults on at least 4 airfields, 41 aircraft were destroyed, the results of a covert operation aimed at Russia’s tactical aviation terrorizing Ukrainian cities. www.counteroffensive.news/p/newsflash-...

Yes.

“It’s hard to think of a more anti-conservative figure than President Donald Trump or a more anti-conservative movement than MAGA,” writes @Peter_Wehner. “The Trump administration is a thugocracy, and the Republican Party he controls supports him”:

goal of the rally is to send a message to VA Secretary Doug Collins to reconsider planned cutbacks of up to 83,000 employees at the agency that were disclosed in a VA memo leaked to news reporters in March... www.stripes.com/veterans/202...

I couldn't agree more.
