I just have to say that, as a foreigner a long way away, that I am so impressed about the way the American people (those with a conscience and decency) are standing up for each other right now. Keep it up until that orange gremlin and his sycophant accomplices are ejected.

Moskowitz on Noem: "Is she hiding her face like her ICE agents now? By the way - is this what the $800b went to? Every day we see her after some new tragedy, she's wearing a different outfit with a different hat. She looks ridiculous. She deserves to be removed from her job, & if not impeached."

The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism.

Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.

It is ironic and revealing that the response of the felon (and his gormless supplicants) to democrat politicians saying that soldiers and CIA should not follow unlawful orders would be unequivocally be an unlawful order.

@thebulwark.com - could you do a story on the effect of the type of primary (preferential) that was used in new york and how that could change the mood of primaries and the type of candidates selected.

Given the escalated behaviour of ice Dems should insist on legislated due process for ice agents - that is name, badge number and agency, obligation to advise what offence committed, and where detained. There is no good reason that Ice are not doing these thing (but plenty of bad ones).

@gtconway.bsky.social it would be good to examine how the SC dealt with insurrection in the 14 amendment case. While the SC was not sure waht it meant in that case, I will wager they have no problem in circumstances where the Insurrection Act is invoked. Next time uou chat to Sarah.

Health care is important but passed legislation forcing any federal law enforcement to have to show badge number and name in order to lawfully exercise any power must be the price of keeping government open. There can be no legal use of force if those using it cannot be identified.

According to CNN “On Monday alone, the White House shattered scientific consensus on the causes of autism”. But did it though? More Trump showing he is a dangerous senile goose who hired a brain worm affected bear carcass eater to take care of public health. Let’s call things as they actually are!

It is ironic that while being indignant (and more that a little hypocritical) about certain responses to an assassination, the US government carries out its second extra territorial assassination in a fortnight.
