Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation.
This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.

A $100M lawsuit from the Proud Boys isn’t about damages, it’s a laundering mechanism and a way to fund a domestic terrorist organization with plausible deniability. I’ll bet the Trump Admin. settles for ~$25 million and a thank-you card for brand loyalty and future services.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.
It is blatantly unconstitutional.
It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Truth.
It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

Truth.
Happy Black Thursday Eve for those who celebrate.
I was thinking that none of those numbers made sense, but holy fuck this is insane

The United States of America is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care as a human right.
The result: We rank dead last among wealthy nations in life expectancy.
We must end that international embarrassment.
Yes. We need Medicare for All.

Pritzker: The question I ask is: if you’re willing to hand the keys to Europe over to Putin, what’s next? How does the US retain its leadership in the world when he’s essentially retreating to our own borders? He’s even made enemies of the Canadians—I can’t imagine anything more telling than that.

Republicans are slashing health care and funding for special education.
Why?
To give more $$ to large corporations in a tax cut. And less to help Californians who need it.

This was always about cutting the federal government so the tax cuts for the very wealthy don’t expire. This was never about “efficacy.”

@congresstran.bsky.social Can you propose this?
Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.
Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law
Time to do things that make him react to you.

Trump has canceled Biden's ethics rules. Critics call it the opposite of 'drain the swamp'
Donald Trump took office eight years ago pledging to “drain the swamp” of the dominance of Washington influence peddlers.
