Exactly. If the government can disappear migrants without due process, it can disappear anyone. We need leaders who act like lives depend on it—because they do. If @schumer.senate.gov won’t raise hell over this, he needs to step down.

We are not afraid of you, because even with the greatest seat of power, you are a spectacularly small man. We are not afraid of you because you are not worthy of our fear; because that would mean respecting you—and we do not. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/we-the-peo...

Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not. An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.

The level of dishonesty in this country — the abject refusal to confront who we are and what we have done — makes this place susceptible to charlatans and makes some who walk among us monstrous.

Justice Sotomayor, writing in today's deportation case. How many times must she write, "With fear for our democracy, I dissent," before Republicans get the point? Perhaps only when, as the poem goes, they come for them.

The SAVE ACT will let states purge you from the voting rolls so you can't vote. It'll require everyone to go in person to show your birth certificate or passport. Women who changed their surname to their husband's will need to bring a passport. Driver's licenses won't do. #HandsOffHerVote

With Yoon removed from office today, by my count that makes 34 democratic leaders convicted since 2010. Only one—Trump—faced no real consequences. Trump's actions weren't uncommon. What was exceptional was how our institutions failed to hold him accountable.

@booker.senate.gov didn’t just “talk” for a record setting amount of time. He made speeches, taught lessons, he inspired and informed. This is just incredibly impressive work from the senator, his staff, and the colleagues who helped. The bar’s been raised Democrats. Keep it going.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but to become a naturalized US citizen, an immigrant green card holder must ALREADY pass a high school level test on American history and civics. Most native-born Americans would fail the test if they had to take it
