Under international and domestic law, the President does not have the power to arbitrarily carry out assassinations.

Less than a year into the Trump admin and the National Governors Association, founded over 115 years ago, is on the brink of collapse.
Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

Another found they actually make Latinos more likely to be victims of violent crime.

Trump is paying Palantir millions of dollars to create a database to access ALL personal information about EVERYONE in America.

Our data can be used against us at any time; we must stop this machine before we are one search away from criminalization.
