This is probably the clearest indication yet that the administration understands what they’re doing in the Caribbean is illegal.

They’re now threatening the ICC with sanctions if they investigate Trump and his team.

Bail reform not only made New York more just, it also literally made it safer.

Too bad our elected leaders, public safety officials, and the overwhelming majority of the press are so deeply invested in a narrative entirely divorced from empirical reality.

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

“Government by the people for the people.” They don’t believe in that, they don’t care about us.

If what Trump is doing is legal - if his loopholes are technically real loopholes - the laws need to change. An if it's illegal, folks need to go to jail. No other options unless you want *all of this* to be standard American politics from here on out.
