The government does not have the power to declare “free speech zones.” And the violent arrest of the rabbi should set off some alarm bells.
Heard an officer say "let's do it" and then, in the dark, they tackle Rabbi Ben to the ground. He's being loaded into a CCSO wagon now. Broadview police also here screaming at people.

Some people not afraid to stand up for what they believe
“In the last week, more than 200 veterans have volunteered to attend immigration hearings with Afghans who worked with U.S. forces during the 20-year war in Afghanistan…”
Hundreds of veterans volunteer to attend asylum hearings with Afghans
The effort began after a former Afghan interpreter was detained after his San Diego asylum hearing this month.

Thank you for continuing to speak out against issues that affect all of us.

I get frustrated, then hear you speak and feel a little better about the future.

Thank you for healing my soul slightly.

Booker for his 25 hr speech to expose on Trump & Musk's corruption
Schatz for blocking 300 Trump nominees

Newsom for suing Trump over tariffs

The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

We knew exactly what this administration was going to do because it was written in Project 2025.

Folks can be surprised at how quickly it has moved, but no one can act like they didn't know.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.

So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.

So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory
