It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots. The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination. This should outrage every single Member of Congress.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Trump is demanding his big birthday military parade and pretending its for the Army. He wanted it last time but got rejected by leaders who had spines at DOD when the price tag of $92M came in plus $21.6M for DC. Those brave souls are gone so they will meekly comply giving him his North Korea show.

Know how Trump wants to celebrate his birthday? With a big $billion parade like the ‘rocket man’. We’d be paying that bill too.

Tonight the Supreme Court made it possible to have m ore cases like Andry's, by requiring that people challenging Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act file individual habeas corpus lawsuits. Many people in detention don't have any money to hire a lawyer. They won't be able to do this.

"The implication...is that not only noncitizens but also U.S. citizens could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before removal. History is no stranger to such lawless regimes..."

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

We elected a man everyone who matters in this country knew was an idiot. The bulk of them refused to say so openly and directly — either because they thought he could do something for them or because there are political and journalistic norms against speaking that way.
