Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.
This is one that stands out:

I spent the morning at the San Antonio immigration court. It’s out of control.
Crawling with ICE - arresting legal immigrants showing up for court appearances.
I asked one officer who they are prioritizing. His answer: everyone.
I need to share with you what I saw.

This is the reality of what ICE is doing with their $75 billion budget. Wouldn’t this be better spent on health care?

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed.
Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

The opposite of universal basic income.
Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

if democrats “defunded” a wall project i am guessing it would not go quietly
Three billion dollars -- that's $3,000,000,000.00+ USD -- for a meager 64 miles of border wall
According to the Texas Department of Transportation, the state's border with Mexico is 1,254 miles long

Fun fact: Mike Lee is a direct descendant of John D. Lee, the only person executed for the massacre of 120+ men, women and children at Mountain Meadows in southern Utah
The victims were Missouri immigrants on their way to California

Trump created the problem. The single reason Iran was so close to obtaining a nuclear weapon is that Trump destroyed the diplomatic agreement that put major, verifiable constraints on their nuclear program.

There are no open deconfliction channels between the military and local law enforcement.
Having multiple groups with weapons operating in the same area with no way to communicate is fucking insane.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.
