A well-known and well-funded podcaster preaching to your family, friends and neighbors online and on school campuses that you or your loved ones are the evil in this world and must be removed for the betterment of the religious community is not an example of the left radicalizing someone to act.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor appeared to rebuke calls to target “hate speech” in an apparent swipe at Attorney General Pam Bondi.

“Every time I listen to a lawyer-trained representative saying we should criminalize free speech in some way, I think to myself, that law school failed,” said Sotomayor.

The justice, in public remarks, didn’t name the attorney general, who has come under fire for comments to target people over “hate speech.”

I was born & raised in the deep south. I grew up watching my uneducated white relatives blame immigrants & black people for the way their lives turned out, rather than their poor life choices.

Their hate is why I'm a Democrat.💙

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

Not mutually exclusive.
Why are so many elderly, sick, and poor Republican voters who rely on Medicaid, SNAP, and Social Security still supporting a president, Administration, and party actively destroying them? Is their tribalism that fierce that nothing else matters, or are they just that ignorant?

Just listened to the Hur interview tape
and I’m utterly appalled at all the incoherent and crazy things Biden said about Revolutionary War airports, injecting bleach, people eating cats and dogs, Hannibal Lecter, and Arnold Palmer’s penis. Simply unbelievable that he ran for president again.

Dear senators who think you can’t do anything,

Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT.

Thank you, Senator Van Hollen. You were determined to meet with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, and that meeting has actually happened. Please, please continue your extraordinary efforts to bring this innocent man home to America. Thank you so much.

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.
