Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us. It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin. You must understand what is truly at stake here. All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

In light of Breaking Bad guy wanting a return to genuinely admirable protagonists, what is your favorite example of one? I’d argue Picard from TNG is a really strong example in that he isn’t infallible but is unrelentingly concerned with the moral costs of decisions and the power placed in his hands

Here's a great sci-fi audio drama you should listen to. It's not old school radio-style. It tells the story through texture and simulation of vision through sound podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/d...

In another benchmark for an independent, non-profit newspaper being born in a major U.S. city, the www.thebaltimorebanner.com just added obits/death notices. Bring on county bureaus, police blotters, listed homesales and a word jumble. This is the only practical road home for print journalism.
