Your friendly reminder that it is literally a federal felony punishable by up to five years in prison for the President, Vice President, or any employee of the White House to directly or indirectly ask the IRS to open an investigation into any specific taxpayer.

Same has happened to me. I rarely see the people I follow and people have trouble seeing me. Most people who have vanished from my feed are people willing to speak out on all human rights abuses, and the people forced into my feed are partisan slobber. It’s beginning to remind me of Twitter.

Trump has revoked a U.S. citizen’s Social Security benefits in the hopes they would leave the country. This comes after the administration filed 6,000 immigrants into the SSA’s “death master file,” stripping them of their legal ability to work and receive benefits.

I have never in my life heard more open discussion about assassinating American politicians. High school teachers, waitresses, pharmacists, bank tellers, bartenders. Everybody’s saying it.

Trump fabricates a photo of Mr. Garcia with MS-13 tattoo on his hand. This is NOT a real image. Trump and his regime fabricated it. Please understand that Trump regime would fabricate evidence to put you or your family in jail. This is what FASCISM regimes do. www.mediaite.com/trump/trump-...

Like those behind so many other recent mass shootings, the sheriff's son who carried out the shooting in Florida today was a supporter of Donald Trump's fascist agenda, in which fantasies of total power, the desire to murder, and self-destructiveness mingle. They are raising their children to kill.

I do appreciate how the government is committed to making the 19 year-olds holding the rifles hate them as much as possible before giving them the order to shoot at us. Makes it more sporting when there’s a 50/50 chance which way they’ll point the bayonets.

Safe to presume this line about the Garcia case is an official Dem talking point given the amount of times it’s been invoked in the past week. Habeas Corpus has been a precedent since the Magna Carta (1215) but I guess the POTUS fighting both that & the 14th Amendment is a “distraction.”

Beyond the particularities of this case is the meta-issue that the Supreme Court ruled over 130 years ago in Chae Chan Ping v. U.S. that immigration regulation was the exclusive power of the federal gov, reaffirmed as recently as 2012 in Arizona v. U.S. A bunch of states now just want to ignore that
