And, after 15 years of trying, they're going to kick millions off of the ACA—the first time the federal government has ever purposely uninsured millions of Americans.

That alone should be enough to cost the GOP control of Congress in a typical midterm.

Louisiana paroled nine prisoners to deport them.

We found that at least two have been deported, while two others are being held at a new immigration detention facility.

But neither ICE nor the Landry admin would answer questions about the other five.

The focus on Friday became the SCOTUS news that the court will be hearing the birthright citizenship case.

But, there were several other things happening during the day Friday that provided a sharp reminder of just what any day in the Trump era could be like.
Birthright citizenship, firing powers, the National Guard, and Trump's made-up "peace prize"

Trump will die before the full realization of American fascism is reached. These are the birth pangs. It will get so much worse unless we do something. We should and we must.

Can't believe our tax dollars are going to be spent settling the upcoming exorbitant defamation suit with Sabrina Carpenter, but maybe this is just how public arts funding is going to work now.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.
