I don’t know why republicans care about what books kids read if they don’t care if they make it out of school alive.
It ain’t about protecting kids; it’s about protecting power.
And where was Jesus when those children were praying and getting gunned down? Stop sending prayers in place of policy.

I just want to remind you all that states where book bans are common, like FL, TX, SC, TN, IA, UT and others, are home to many people who do support the freedom to read and the First Amendment. It does no good to write off these states and their people, who still deserve our support.

Goldman on Abrego Garcia: "If he had due process he would not have been removed. Then they would've had to go through the process of proving it. This is why due process matters- so you don't make mistakes like this. That you do have a neutral arbiter that decides the law. Not the executive branch."

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.
