Dude. He has literally declared war on us. What are you doing?
For the good of the country, Republican leaders need to start engaging in basic bipartisanship to end the Republican-created health care cost crisis and the widespread misery of this Trump shutdown.

There’s no hiding the political retaliation and weaponization.

One of my favorite annual @democracynow.org traditions is that we always play this video of James Earl Jones reading Frederick Douglass's speech "What to the Slave is the 4th of July?"
If you've never read or heard the speech, it's well worth your time.

This reminds me of when some budget airline bought the Pan Am trademark out of bankruptcy
Planes roared over D.C. on Saturday, tanks rolled along the National Mall, brass bands resounded and thousands of soldiers marched past cheering crowds, as the Army put on the largest show of military might in the capital in more than three decades. wapo.st/4dYFOck

You gotta admit it would be hilarious if Hillary Clinton led the revolution
Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.
If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

2/4. The entire practice of the Holocaust of the Jews involved zones of statelessness. It is easier to move people away from law than it is to remove law from people. Almost all of the killing took place in artificially created stateless zones.

Sean Duffy: "The truth is, transit across America is dangerous. And these liberals -- liberal mayors -- they want everybody out of cars and into trains but they made the trains unsafe so nobody really wants to ride them ... even big men don't want to ride the subway at those times of night."
