We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

The judiciary remains one of the last bastions in our political system to resist Trump’s unlawful overreach So it seems clear-by arresting Judge Dugan and broadcasting it on social media That his toadies are trying to intimidate jurists Effectively saying, “If you don’t comply, you might be next”

Can't wait until Trump's DHS spokespeople start trying to convince us this American toddler is actually a wife beating human trafficker

When they start arresting judges we’re all in a lot of trouble

NEW: Abrego Garcia is getting a lot of attention, but many people are asking about the rest of the men being unlawfully held in CECOT. Here's what's going on with them. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/so-what-ab...

Lawrence Tribe on O’Donnell right now pointing at the Supreme Court, specifically Amy to stand up, saying it’s up the the Supreme Court now… right NOW. Apply the pressure NOW‼️

Now they’re arresting judges who follow the rule of law. Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the FBI for giving an immigrant sanctuary in her chambers when ICE showed up to snatch him without a proper warrant or due process. She did the right thing and stood up to the Trump/Patel Gestapo. ✊

Correct.

Pete Hegseth installed a make-up station at the Pentagon. JD Vance loves a smoky dark eyeliner. Trump cakes on orange base till he resembles an Oompa Loompa. And these guys say LGBTQs are threatening gender norms?

I do hope some of the elder Senators and Representatives follow Senator Durbin's example.

Governor JB Pritzker just announced that Illinois will be defunding investments in companies controlled by El Salvador to punish the country for holding American residents without due process. More of this.

Couldn't have said it better, Pedro.

Here's a tariff. Here's a deportation. Here's a Christian nationalist order. Here's the defunding of schools and libraries and museums and medical research. Here's higher prices on every good. Here's a cut to gut childcare. Here's soaring rents and stagnant wages. Are we great yet?

💯‼️THIS‼️💯

Who else AGREES with Pedro?! 🤚

Pete Hegseth just ordered the installation of a makeup studio at the Pentagon for him to prepare for his television appearances, which will cost thousands of taxpayer dollars to build.

god this shit is blood boiling

Robert Wolf on Fox News: "I've been in finance for 40 years. This is probably the biggest manufactured crisis I've seen with a bunch of unforced errors. The execution of 'liberation day' was pathetic."

“Bullies respond to one thing only: a punch in the face” - Illinois Governor JB Pritzker

llinois Gov. JB Pritzker announced that the state will take punitive actions against the country of El Salvador for holding Kilmar Abrego Garcia in custody.

I think we are going to see some empty shelves. That is the time we need to point out why they are empty. Be sure to tell all your friends and relatives who voted for this.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

“I’ve never missed a court appearance. I’ve never missed an appointment with immigration or ICE,” Daboin Rall said. “The truth is: I don’t have any criminal record. I’ve done everything correctly according to the rules of this country.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

Hegseth needs to be fired. The intel he shared via Signal, including to his wife, was sent to him on a secure channel. He knowingly exposed our pilots to unnecessary danger with his show boat antics.

The difference between Christianity and Christian Nationalism is a Pope who advocated for our most marginalized and a woman who considers him evil for doing so.

“This happens today: if the investments in the banks fall slightly… a tragedy… what can be done? But if people die of hunger, if they have nothing eat, if they have poor health, it does not matter! This is our crisis today!” -Pope Francis

What Trump is doing with these “deportations” is human trafficking. No due process? People sent to concentration styled prisons in a country other than their own? Paying a foreign country to imprison them? Yup. That’s human trafficking. SCOTUS better step up.

It takes a special kind of nitwit to appoint a Fox News weekend anchor with a drinking problem and a history of abuse to Secretary of Defense. And that nitwit is Donald Trump.

Damn straight.
