I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

On March 6, #SCOTUS denied a Trump emergency application in the Dellinger case. That was the last time that happened; today's ruling is the 24th (consecutive) grant since then.

Trump’s stated goals are always bullshit.
The tariffs are about Trump controlling other countries. That’s it.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This seems like a blatant Antideficiency Act violation, which caries criminal penalties.
However, the Trump admin won't prosecute itself, so this is yet more broken budget laws from the Trump admin
