Shut Down "Alligator Alcatraz"
"Alligator Alcatraz" is an environmental and humanitarian disaster. The cruelty must end. Join me in telling Congress to demand access and block all federal funds until this compound is shut down.

Instead of being solely preoccupied with unnecessary foreign wars, maybe we should have spent more time worrying about the United States government going to war against its own people.

Baldwin: I remember my cross-examination of Secretary Kennedy from HHS, and he said, “We will have radical transparency.” But what they’ve actually had is radical opaqueness. They never answer a letter. They never answer a question.

🚨BREAKING: The latest version of the Republican reconciliation bill does not include provision that would have required those suing the Trump administration to post a huge bond if they won an injunction.

Not just on the odd occasion, but every single day!” said a source […]

5/ Thank you for coming to my Ted talk, since the conservative majority on the Supreme Court does not seem to be paying attention. Sometimes the descent, tell us more about a case than the majority opinion. This is one of those times.

4/ It’s easy to say, well, no lawyers were using nationwide injunctions at the time of the founding. Of course, the country looked radically different then. The idea that we rely on “history” to support a certain faction’s views, while ignoring the FF’s most important goal is not what they intended.

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.
