Columbia grad student with a green card and a pregnant US citizen wife, abducted by ICE because of his political organizing, and now his lawyers can't find him. Hey, @schumer.senate.gov. This is your constituent. Bring him back home.

Armed government agents went to the home of a lawful resident of the United States without a warrant and arrested him over the content of his speech. This is a five-alarm fire for civil liberties.

The people who voted for Trump on the assumption that he didn't really mean all the awful things he was promising are about to get a rude awakening. Sadly, a lot of innocent people are going to suffer for those voters' willful blindness.

Bless her heart.

Popping on to say: A lot of rumors are about to fly about this rally. Trump's team is 100% going to try and take advantage of this situation. So will malicious foreign actors/bots/etc. Please don't auto share. Check your sources, and vet their wording/sourcing carefully.

I am regularly horrified by everything I hear about project 2025. This seems like a reasonable response. However, the one thing I have not heard is that no one at the Heritage Foundation has been elected to do anything. They have no rights to make laws or abridge people's rights.

Never forget that Republicans could have, after 1/6/2021, made Trump go away as a candidate forever by voting to convict in his impeachment. Instead what McConnell said they wanted was for the criminal legal system to deal with it, which is how we get to where we are today

me: aw man i gotta wash these pans dawn dish soap: no worries dude, that's what i'm here for me: i need to wash all these baby ducks too dawn dish soap: lol guess what

More Americans want a president who sounds like a pleasant normie on holidays than like a raving lunatic. I will continue believing this unless proven otherwise. And I don’t expect to be.

"It's a bad idea to keep Trump off the ballot because he might respond by leading his supporters in a violent insurrection" seems more a statement of the problem than anything else.
