And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

Stephen Miller is fulfilling his high school wet dream of terrorizing all the Brown people in Los Angeles. My daughter's friends who went to SaMo High with him said he used to seethe while the morning announcements were repeated in Spanish. Hell, they did that when I went there. (Mesozoic age.)

Hitler had a People's Court that enforced the premise that whatever was deemed "good for Germany" would rule, in parallel to a normal legal system. We don't want to go there.

Cross-sport transsexual athletes are extremely rare, I'm sure. The GOP goes after minority groups that seem unusual to typical citizens, so the Dem's must defend them because they believe in civil rights instead of discrimination. Shouldn't adults help kids find ways to participate?

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade. They departed Texas 5 days ago. What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel. (🎥 DW)

Having access to space isn’t some cute touristy thing. It’s a national security military function. The USA should not be dependent upon a sole contractor when the lives of every American depend on it. Gov should use DPA + Eminent Domain to take control of SpaceX.

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

SCOTUS canceled Roe vs. Wade which was based on privacy assumptions, but they recently used privacy assumptions to justify a different ruling. Sheer conservative hypocrisy

Trump said that Musk will face "consequences" if he donates to Democrats. No wonder we're rated as a "flawed democracy" (#28 on the Democracy Index in 2024, BEFORE Trump's 2nd term).

Since the AG doesn't seem to be getting ethics guidance from her team these days, I wanted to make sure she has the rule in the Justice Manual in front of her, which expressly prohibits this.

Rachel’s story is a haunting glimpse of what’s at stake with NIH funding being slashed—a reminder that behind every data point is a life in need. I will keep fighting for Rachel, and for every American whose hope and healing depend on NIH’s lifesaving research.

It’s the 60th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s Griswold v. Connecticut ruling protecting the right to access contraception. I’m a proud supporter of legislation to enshrine this right into law, because access to personal reproductive care shouldn’t be decided by any politician.
