I think regular cops should patrol without guns. Take away their ability to kill citizens. Force them to learn deescalation techniques. Use rope, pillows, bedding, shields to capture ppl. I've seen the videos; they work. Only SWAT teams should have guns. Make no-knock warrants illegal.

There's literally no difference between a public national monument approved by Congress and a $400 million jet the president keeps

The Constitution disagrees. The Emoluments Clause, part of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, bans office holders from taking ANY gifts from foreign countries. There is no mention of quid pro quo. That is because the Founding Fathers knew that even the appearance of corruption promotes corruption.

The jet is a bribe. And it’s a direct violation of the United States Constitution IF it is to be transferred to a presidential library, as reported. If it remains property of the US Government after he leaves office, then it’s no different than the Resolute Desk. As reported, it’s impeachable.

ICE agents should not be permitted to wear masks. They should have their names and identification numbers clearly displayed to all. Democracy and protecting our rights depends upon public accountability. Masked agents of the state abusing and disappearing people is not exactly friendly to that.

“Abolish ICE” is the moderate position. Radical is “prosecute every ICE employee under RICO.”

Something I hope everyone covers this tomorrow notes is that...the President has no authority whatsoever to make trade deals without congress. None. Not even the pretext of one.

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

#Andor #Andorseason2 #AndorS2 #Andorspoilers Eps 4-6 were amazing. Spy craft is always very fascinating. But also in ep 6 I got so stressed & had to pause the ep to gather my bearings & eat some food; try to lower my blood pressure. I cheered at the ending of ep 6 btw.

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

This feels a lot like that early period of Covid when some people were shouting about how bad it was going to be while guys like Trump and Musk were predicting it would be over by April.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

This is crazy. ICE didn’t have event have a warrant to arrest the guy! The judge asked for it and they said “we have an administrative warrant” (not a real warrant). She told them to kick rock and now the FBI is charging her with obstruction the arrest ‼️
