Keep an eye on today's SCOTUS rulings in particular Trump's effort to end the US Constitution's birthright citizenship.

Also keep a look out for 5 other high-stakes rulings with significant implications for voting rights, public health, education, online safety & presidential power.
Supreme Court is set to issue rulings on birthright citizenship and five other cases on term's final day
The court has six cases left to decide as it concludes its nine-month term ahead of a summer break.

Jo hit it perfectly. The GOP base are the worst people in our society. We just did not understand how screwed up we are in reality.

Do they really think they can scare us with the word “socialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets?

I know what I’m scared of, and it’s not a socialist.

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

When you go out there, don’t march for the Democratic Party, a candidate, not your state, or even your constitution. March for your community, your neighbours, friends, family, yourself. You aren’t marching for political dominance but survival and security for those you love. You are defending.

These men were building us homes.

The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants.
Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS.
Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.
