Watching doc about the 30s. 15k unemployed WWI vets marched on Washington demanding bonuses the gov said they would give them. Senate voted no, gassed them out, rolled tanks down the street after them, and burned down the shanty settlement they'd been staying in. America has not changed much

18/19 yo Euro backpackers were detained in Honolulu. “It was a real jail. Metal doors, locked cells, cold air. And they made us do a full strip search. It was really cold. We had to undress completely, including bra and underwear, and even had to squat and spread… it was humiliating and scary.“

Chair Comer denied our request for an official trip to El Salvador to advocate for due process and the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Pretty shameful. Good thing I don’t need Comer’s permission to get on a plane.

Raskin: The president derives his powers only either from the Constitution explicitly or from an act of Congress and Congress certainly has never given the president the power to relocate prisoners to foreign countries and there's nothing in the constitution that remotely vests that power…

U.S. soldiers now serve under a Defense Secretary who drops classified strike plans in a Signal chat with his wife and bros. With Hegseth in charge, the Pentagon’s greatest threat might be Wi-Fi access.
