Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

MAGA is getting away with mobster-level networked incitement and harassment

These deliveries are beyond maga invasions of privacy, doxxing and stalking of people they don’t like
A judge was anonymously sent pizza deliveries in the name of her murdered son.

Other judges too have gotten similar deliveries.

This is networked incitement and harassment.

Via "One First," me on why Stephen Miller's riff on suspending habeas corpus is not just factually and legally wrong (in multiple respects), but reflects a dangerous escalation in the Trump administration's rhetorical attacks on the courts:

148. Suspending Habeas Corpus
In response to adverse rulings in numerous immigration cases, Stephen Miller is raising the specter of suspending habeas. His argument is factually and legally nuts, but it's worth explaining *why.*

➡️Here’s what you need to do:
1. Call your representatives. Demand they condemn this madness and move to block it.
2. Flood your local media. Let them know this is a national security crisis, not partisan politics.
3. Stay loud. Stay informed. Stay mobilized.

Q: “The president signed an executive order…threatening to defund sanctuary cities for their policies. Why not just arrest the leaders who are harboring and shielding illegal aliens from deportation?”

A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.

The Justice Department quietly invoked the Alien Enemies Act last month, granting Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents the power to conduct warrantless searches of people’s homes based solely on suspicion that they are “alien enemies.”
