Living paycheck to paycheck can feel like a weight on your shoulders. You are not able to help others by donating, or treat yourself at all. It is sad that I can no longer afford to donate to causes I believe in. Financial stability feels like a far-off dream--one that I hope can come true for all.

"Some officials say U.S. citizens who criticize administration policies could be charged with crimes" I always wondered how mainstream journalism would cover an impending dictatorship here. Now we know.

In 35-page ruling, DColo judge grants class-wide (statewide) TRO against removing Venezuelans under Alien Enemy Act. Plaintiffs likely to win on argument that ACT DOES NOT APPLY. "Invasion," "predatory incursion," "foreign nation or govt" all absent here. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

OR … we could impeach him and the whole cabinet and start fresh. This is a legal, proper, and even traditional thing we could do. Just saying.

It would be extremely satisfying if the ICC issued arrest warrants for the orange felon and his minions.

If you're wondering why so many right wing individuals are saying hateful things about the late Pope, the reason is simple: he told them that they should care about other people.

The political pendulum will inevitably swing toward the Dems. Voters are a fickle bunch who change their minds on a moment's notice. It'll be interesting if a Dem uses these newfound powers. The GOP sat idly by during his extralegal actions and don't have a leg to stand to criticize when they do.

Do not take this as me somehow indicating that SCOTUS will do this. It's not at all what I am suggesting. It is simply a statement about what they could do if they decided to: SCOTUS CAN reverse its previous decisions, including those related to presidential immunity. The Court has the authority.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

Sending the 300 migrants to a prison in El Salvador is a violation of 13 international laws and/or treaties, US law, and 3 Constitutional Amendments.

Literally every part of this is false: - Kilmar Abrego Garcia was never found to be an MS-13 gang member - A 2019 withholding of removal gave him legal protection to stay in the U.S. - There's no deportation order They're working overtime to spread lies and smear a man to justify his abduction.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

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.

White House says wrongly deported man is 'never coming back' to US. Translation: I don't care that the Supreme Court ordered me to facilitate his return, I'm ignoring court orders. This is the breaking point of democracy and the Supreme Court must weigh in immediately. Then the GOP must impeach.

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!!!

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

"If liberal funders are going to have any more convenings, they need to do some soul searching and examine why—when everything is burning down—they are still hesitant to fund the strategies the right-wing has used to such breathtaking and horrifying success."
