ICE use of Border Control agents is disgusting. Most of these agents are criminals with a badge, running free rein on innocent people. Just like the prison guards ICE has hired. They are thugs and losers.

When an ICE agent fired the tear gas canister, it hit 55-year-old nurse Vincent Hawkins in the face, shattering his glasses and concussing him.

As he was rushed to the emergency room, he wondered if he'd ever see through his left eye again.

The court ordered SNAP to keep running using emergency funds. But Speaker Mike Johnson shrugged: “It’s not as easy as hitting go-send on a computer.” Millions of kids, vets, seniors, and disabled Americans could go hungry for Thanksgiving while the GOP plays political games. #TruthbombTuesday

Consider this. A judge ordered a president to feed hungry children. The president doesn’t want to do that. He was ordered to do that.

I actually feel a little sorry for Mike Johnson. Before he became Speaker only a handful of people knew what a smarmy little idiot he was. Now, several hundred million people know.

Which part of Kash Patel’s post today was the most pathetic:

1. That his gf is “a country music sensation.”

Or

2. That she “has done more for this nation than most will in ten lifetimes.”

Or

3. That people are “jeopardizing their safety” by criticizing his flights.

“It’s We the People in whom all power resides,“ former federal @judgeluttig.bsky.social‬ says. “If the Supreme Court will not come to the aid of the country, then all that’s left is for we, the people, to take back the country through elections and protests. We have no choice.“ #Velshi
Judge Luttig: “We the People” are the final backstop for American democracy
While the Supreme Court has largely enabled Trump’s power grab, lower-court judges have risen to the moment, calling out government lies and defending the Constitution under historic pressure. Former federal judge Michael Luttig notes that, in the absence of a Supreme Court willing to confront Trump’s abuses, lower courts have taken the extraordinary step of speaking directly to the American people through their opinions— breaking with centuries of judicial tradition — because, as he puts it, it is a paramount obligation of federal judges ”to condemn what’s happening in America today.” If the Supreme Court fails to meet the moment, Luttig is blunt about who is left to defend democracy: “It’s we the people in whom all power resides,“ he says. “If the Supreme Court will not come to the aid of the country, then all that’s left is for we, the people, to take back the country through elections and protests. We have no choice.“

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.
