Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?
The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.
At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

Remember the one & only time Article 5 was used & all of NATO went to war to help the USA? Remember how some of our countrymen gave their lives for a country who’d then elect a man who threatens our sovereignty & says the USA may not return the favour should we be attacked? Yeah.

I wanna get this to Newsom’s PR team: in response to the auto pen photo in place of Biden’s pic, Newsom needs to say that when HE becomes POTUS, he will replace Trump’s portrait with one of a big old TACO.

Speaker Mike Johnson is REFUSING to swear in Rep. Grijalva in Arizona to prevent the release of the Epstein files. This is LAWLESSNESS. Even if the Dems do win back the House do you all really think this lot will honor such a free and fair election?

Make America China? MAC.
Michigan Republicans propose new bill that would ban all adult content online, ranging from ASMR to any depiction of trans people, even in non-adult videos. It also calls for ISPs to begin draconian monitoring of all internet activity and would ban VPNs

Tom Homan took a bribe. Knowing how Trump operates I would assume every single one of Trump’s appointees has a skeleton or 3 in their closet that he can hold over them if & when needed. Hope to live long enough to hear about them all.

🇨🇦 BUYING THE F-35 COULD BE CANADA'S BIGGEST STRATEGIC MISTAKE 🇨🇦
In a stunning analysis for The Walrus, #PeterJones argues that purchasing a full fleet of #F-35 fighter jets would make Canada's defence "utterly dependent" on the #UnitedStates at a dangerously uncertain time.

A disabled double amputee named Rodney Taylor has been held in ICE custody since January.
He’s been denied his new prosthetic legs and is now in solitary confinement.
His “crime”? A burglary when he was a teen for which he received a full pardon. 🧵

All of America forgets they are the only country to invoke Article 5 and have all of NATO's support after 9/11.
NATO countries spent billions and lost thousands of their soldiers fighting in Afganistan only for Trump to negotiate giving Afganistan back to the Taliban.

If the USA doesn’t back NATO in Europe, it will be the most egregious, traitorous event in modern history. We sacrificed our men & women for the USA, believing we had a deal, that we could count on them to defend us too. It will mean WW3, death, destruction & an entirely new world order. 😡

Why was Tucker all “Russia is the best! Look at these cool grocery carts, we should be like Russia!” And the moment Trump starts the process of making America into Russia, he’s all pissed off? What gives?

I would not have picked Jimmy Kimmel to be the person to demonstrate how completely fucked the US is on multiple axes, but the writers for the last season of America clearly know what they’re doing
reminder: Jimmy Kimmel is enough of a mensch that he devised a segment on which actors who are just short of having enough work to qualify for union healthcare come on his show and deliver a single line of dialogue

Absolutely. Canadian rights should be guaranteed. You can’t lose them by moving from one province to another.
Our rights should be inalienable.

As my #altCitizen granny said, they can take everything from you but your education & your integrity.
Most of us don’t testify to congress, but we all have ways to speak truth to the world.
Silence is complicity. Speak your mind even if your voice is shaking. Your integrity matters.
