I am sick of people invoking 'freedom' as an argument against any rule they don't like. It's lazy and typically hypocritical when others freedoms are affected. Freedom has become a synonym for individualism and selfishness and an antonym to 'community' and 'responsibility'.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

We need a new party, too many Democrat reps want to be moderate Republicans and are voting with them when they should be shutting them down! #resistance #AlGreen
