Reminder: If a president has immunity for official actions and swears an oath to uphold the Constitution then violating the Constitution can't be construed to be an official action and as a consequence the president does not have immunity to protect him from prosecution for such actions.

Federal records show an immigration judge ordered U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio's grandfather deported back to Cuba in 1962 . He was in the U.S. illegally. He was allowed to stay through clemency. Hypocrite enough Marco?

A friend of mine has coined the term “Pinocheting” to describe what the government is doing to these prisoners.

The fact that I know more about Katy Perry and Lauren Sánchez’s 11-minute space trip than I do about Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito’s decades-long crime spree shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Seems like removing Hegseth would be an easier solution

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Must read this perfect example:

What happened at his autopsy?

Trump is breaking the law. How is that not in the headline?

WATCH: @kaitlancollins.bsky.social asks mumbling border czar Tom Homan why they haven’t presented evidence tying #KilmarAbregoGarcia to a gang in an actual court

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything, Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT. ~ All of Us

The National Intelligence Council determined in a secret assessment that the Venezuelan government is not directing an invasion of the United States by the prison gang Tren de Aragua, a judgment that contradicts President Donald Trump’s public statements.

Now I have to rethink the administration's assertions about other people it has targeted!!!!! storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

My adult daughter Rachel works everyday, pays taxes, loves going to movies with her friends, and listens to awful (IMO) music. Our U.S. Dept HHS has lost all of its humanity, compassion, and intellectual curiosity

This is from J. Harvie Wilkinson III, a Reagan appointee:

Just a reminder: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. lacks formal education or professional credentials in critical scientific fields such as biology, neuroscience, psychology, psychiatry, immunology, virology, epidemiology, genetics, pharmacology, or medicine.

Several House Republicans were granted access but they’re blocking a Senate Democrat.

WOW. One of the Venezuelans whom Kristi Noem tried to render to El Salvador's slave prison managed to avoid removal and was able to make it to immigration court, and you'll never guess what happened: THE GOVERNMENT GAVE NO EVIDENCE OF HIS GANG MEMBERSHIP. Due process ftw

This:

Boasberg has game: "To permit officials to freely annul the judgments of the courts of the United States wd not just “destroy the rights acquired under those judgments”; it would make “a solemn mockery” of “the constitution itself.” (Marshall, C.J.). “So fatal a result must be deprecated by all.”

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it. Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids. Don’t let this go!!!

This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason

JUDGE BOASBERG: “.. The Constitution does not tolerate willful disobedience of judicial orders. .. To permit such officials to freely ‘annul the judgments of the courts ..’ would make ‘a solemn mockery’ of ‘the constitution itself.’” 🇺🇸 storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If your brain thinks we need a papered, government issued voter ID card to prove a person is a legitimate voter, but that same person can be overnighted to a foreign prison as a gang member by mere unproven government accusation, you’ve discovered you have a broken, Constitutionally illiterate brain

The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes per year — enough to end homelessness, hunger, and pay for universal childcare. 👆🏻 This is the crime wave we should be talking more about.

You know who should lose their tax exempt status and be taxed as political entities for pushing politics loooooooooong before Harvard? Christian Nationalist megachurches that supported Trump and his current brand of fascism.

📌"He's betrayed our national security. He will do so again. He's compromised our elections. He will do so again. You will not change him. You can't constrain him. He is who he is. Truth matters little to him. What's right matters even less. Decency matters not at all." -Adam Schiff to GOP in 2020
