👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

I’m a NO — not one more penny for ICE without stopping this violence. Two American citizens were killed by federal agents.

No more roving patrols. No more secret masked police. No more warrantless raids. Investigate and prosecute ICE crimes.

Get ICE out of Minnesota.

"We need to rip ICE down to the studs and start over," Senator Tina Smith of Minnesota writes. "In the wake of this catastrophe, there is no reason we can’t come up with a way of enforcing our laws that doesn’t trample on our values and our Constitution."

Wait, so if they have spare FBI officers available to raid the Fulton County Election Hub, I can only imagine that the Epstein files are finally redacted and ready for release. 🤔🤷🏼‍♂️

4) And they STILL haven’t released the Epstein files.
Of the biggest scandals in US history just this week, I think I’d rank them:

1) Federal paramilitaries invade US city based on racist lies, murder US citizens

2) Slush fund for the president from stolen foreign resources held in Qatar

3) Whatever FBI and DNI are doing re: 2020 election in Georgia

Now, riddle me this: how does a FedGov created by a Constitution ever outgrow that Constitution? Of course, it can’t. So he’s saying that there is no FedGov, and there is no LocalGov, there is only 🍆🥔. IOW, HE JUST TOOK ALL OF YOUR RIGHTS AWAY.

Well, instead of respecting the core of federalism, he’s shitting on everything everywhere all at once. Every gd thing in this exec order is a full frontal violation of the Constitution based on easily disposable lies and bogus law.

E.g., in CA, and everywhere else, that includes power to hire and deploy public safety personnel, to plan and administer public infrastructure, and to enact zoning and building codes and to guarantee compliance whether he likes it or not.

Our Federal government was created by our State governments. Those state governments agreed to share some powers and to reserve others. Among the ones they reserved is what we call the general police power. It’s the power to regulate, legislate, and enforce all matters not explicitly ceded to FedGov

H/t to a fellow Alt for sharing this (you know who you are 😉)

FedGov has declared itself exempt from the Constitution, all of it, basically. Let me walk you through this so you’ll understand all the ways this is a direct attack on every American.

I did great at my work conference in Nashville but now have a sore throat, coughing, and low fever. I brought anti-bacterial soap and a nail brush to evade norovirus, and used it. I did have to talk to a lot of people unmasked, but usually for less than a minute. Staying at home for now.

FWIW if Tim Walz was on whatever they call MSNBC now and said "The New York Times is printing lies about what happened in Minneapolis and I urge you to unsubscribe" a handful of the very specific people who actually care about somebody saying something like that would hear it
im sorry i know it sucks but journalists are going to have to be willing to get fired for simply describing what they see happening with their own eyes, you look like fucking morons
"Was the officer struck by the vehicle, as President Trump insists, or did the car pass by or around him?"
If we only had some trusted institution that could adjudicate between competing claims by relying on facts.

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power

- file impeachment articles every day in the House

- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee

- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

Yesterday, I pleaded not guilty to the charges that Trump’s DOJ has hit me with in federal court.

This administration is targeting me because they can see that I’ve spoken out against them and will continue to stand up to them.

Just finished listening to this and … wow. What a beautifully crafted romcom that is so much more than just getting in your feels. I cried more than once, some happy and some sad tears. The narrator is perfect. It whips you right into the moment in the first scene and it took me on the best ride.
