This boy is Ignorance. This girl is Want. Beware them both, and all of their degree, but most of all beware this boy, for on his brow I see that written which is Doom, unless the writing be erased.” — Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol.

Regular reminder that Axios stories saying Dems are about to cave are likely sourced from GOP staffers trying to make it happen.
Doesn't mean it definitely won't happen. But it's like those NYT stories that Harvard is considering caving (they haven't). The anonymous source was trying to manifest it.

just want to reiterate that the first amendment isn't something you "hide behind," it's something that constrains the government's ability to limit your inalienable rights. that distinction is very important

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I can’t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.

When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone.
New York has her back.
Grateful to Governor Hochul for bringing us together tonight.

1) that's highly illegal. 2) there's no proof the people in those boats are involved in the drug trade 3) in a bunch of cases those boats are not headed for the US 4) it's murder regardless.
Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

Remember that when Trump says he called off troops invading San Francisco that this is the guy who said the Blitzkrieg Ballroom wouldn't touch the East Wing, which no longer exists.

Gotta take issue here, calling out the heist going on in your country isn’t partisan.
The president should not be able to transfer millions of taxpayer dollars into his personal bank account. No government officials should be able to steal from the public like that.
Sorry to get so partisan, but that’s how I feel.
