Kevin Kiley refuses to talk to his constituents about their health care and social security. Because he WON’T protect it. So, I went to Folsom and talked to them.

The first time I met Dick Durbin was just 12 weeks after my shootdown—at a point so early in my recovery that I could barely sit up for any length of time, even in my hospital bed. But when Dick looked at me, he saw past the wounds, saw past the wheelchair.

Calling ASD a “disease” is stigmatizing and without basis. Tracking people with ASD in a database is fascistic and terrifying.

Yet another surrender to a murderous dictator. More “peace in our time,” from the Neville Chamberlain of our time.

In the pantheon of giants of the United States Senate, few have delivered for the American people like @durbin.senate.gov. Over his four decades of public service in the United States Congress, Senator Durbin has proven time and again his abilities both as a builder of bipartisan bridges-

Gélineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after. But what do I know? I'm not the Cabinet secretary in charge of the goddamn Department of Health and Human Services.

How are things going with respect to the discovery before Judge Xinis in Abrego García? Well, the government describes as a “false premise” that it “has been ordered to facilitate Abrego García’s release.” (That’s literally what #SCOTUS held.) pacer-documents.s3.amazonaws.com/84/578815/09...

“As a religious leader it breaks my heart that the bedrock American principle of religious freedom has been weaponized to such an extent that it is encouraging people to opt out of learning about their neighbors.” -Rev. @raushenbush.bsky.social on Mahmoud v. Taylor

In just three months in office, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has produced a run of chaos that is unmatched in the Pentagon's recent history. His inner circle — military veterans who, like him, had little experience running large, complex organizations — is in shambles.

No due process means he decides your guilt or innocence. Not the courts. Not a judge or a jury. No longer will you be deemed innocent until PROVEN guilty. You’ll be declared guilty and snatched off the streets with no recourse. Is the wisdom of the Constitution kicking in yet?

“We can’t give everyone a trial” — excuse me, what?! That’s straight-up #dictator talk. Due process isn’t optional because it’s inconvenient. This is the United States, not a banana republic. If you want to shred the Constitution, just say so. #Authoritarianism #ThisIsNotJustice

President Trump is reported to have complained that hundreds of thousands of hearings would be required to assure due process for immigrants facing removal. Yes. That's how due process works. That's what the law says. Too bad. Should have gone with the Biden immigration plan he opposed
