No. Absolutely not. Holding a fire sale of US public lands to address a made-up fiscal crisis (which is only precipitated by reckless tax cuts) is a terrible, terrible idea.

Arresting Comptroller Lander is despicable and another example of Trump weaponizing law enforcement to attack political enemies rather than focusing on public safety. DHS is flat-out lying in its statement. In the video, Comptroller Lander plainly does not lay a hand on anyone.

Stephen Miller is the one who really controls the Department of Homeland Security, according to former Trump administration Homeland Security staffer Miles Taylor. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has been demoted to nothing more than a mouthpiece for his agenda, he said.

My law firm is currently litigating 55 voting and election cases in 24 states. Two points: This is a very large caseload for this point in the election cycle. It is more evenly spread across states than usual which reflects the creep of voter suppression laws into even safe GOP states.

Your heart breaks for this woman and so many like her, like us. To be at that age and terrified of what will happen to you because your President doesn't care if you live or die. Makes me so angry 😤. She deserves better, we all deserve better.

I don't want to hear anyone call for both sides to tone down the rhetoric. I only want to hear Republican elected officials call out this shit. When the don't, I want to hear Democrats up and down the ladder to be relentless in calling out the silence of the WHITE HOUSE and every Republican

Trump’s racism knows no bounds. He said Sen Alex Padilla “looked like an illegal” while Padilla was handcuffed & clearly identified. That’s not a mistake—it’s a full-throated endorsement of racial profiling, state violence, & white supremacy. Keep calling out his vile rhetoric. tinyurl.com/y5ed6axt

At least 12 million people ( 3.7% of US pop) took a stand against the Trump regime and fascism on Saturday. The next step is a national general strike and boycotts. When 3.5% of the whole population of a nation has begun to participate in resistance, success is inevitable. #3E #NoKings #StopICE
