If your senator is breaking filibuster records, flying to El Salvador in defense of their constituents, or putting holds on every damned Trump nominee, celebrate them now. Show them they have support. If your senator isn't doing any of that - ask them why not.

If you fight Trump you are my ally. I don’t care who you are, why you are doing it, or how bad your other political positions are. Until this crisis is over I don’t care what you said or did in the past or what you will do in the future. I only care that you are fighting Trump today.

Mr. Civility himself calling for a general strike, Bill Kristol calling for ICE to be abolished, and GMU libertarians posting like they want to get the GC subpeonaed. We are 83 days in.

I will tell you one thing: Having a bunch of center-right conservatives swing wildly to the left will make a genuine difference for active duty U.S. military leaders as they decide whether to use force against the American people, to stay neutral or to oppose fascists

I'm going to keep repeating: DHS and ICE were obviously bad ideas from the start. From the start it was obvious that building these sort of inward facing security agencies, like the CIA or NSA but where the target is people inside the country, was planting a time bomb in our democracy.

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

The worst part of the Trump era is not even Trump himself. It’s the people who enabled him despite knowing better. If you have ever criticized Trump, no matter what you’ve said, the people who are now his closest allies have said much worse. Often publicly. Opportunism and cowardice got us here.

Palantir takes billions of records about people, ranging from social media to texts to government records, throws them together into a soup, and helps spies understand a massive network of people in order to find insurgents and terrorists. It is a weapon. And now it’s turned inward at America.

Someone once said NextDoor is the social network for dogs if they could type. It’s always “what’s that noise?” and “who’s that stranger?” which is exactly what I imagine my dogs would text other neighborhood dogs.

I don’t really give a shit how much of a conservative this makes me sound like, but the United States has suffered an existential collapse in the civic virtue of our citizens necessary to sustain a liberal democracy.

It is essential for the rule of law that everyone involved in this end up in prison. Nothing else is a sufficient deterrent against the intentional, repeated abuse of government power to systematically deny fundamental rights.
