Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously
But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state
Keep that same energy of support for her

Weeping and angry with my UK trans sisters, brothers, and siblings today. Their supreme court just stripped them of their legal rights, declaring that AGAB/ASAB is their legal sex. No trans person was consulted, and JK Rowling personally funded the group that pushed the decision through.

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Not ironic, however, is the safe landing of the US Air Force C-37B in Moscow...
1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC
1/31: Crash in Philly
2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle
2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska
2/10: Crash in Scottsdale
2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego
2/16: Crash in Covington, GA
7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

Yes folks please process that what’s happening right now is that Mr Nazi Salute has access to the personal information of every Jew in America, along with every person who gets/has gotten disability benefits, and so on
The Holocaust was an administrative process that included lists of targets

I just called my House Rep and was told by his staff that he’s being briefed and I said we need to hear a clear plan from the democrats about how they’re going to protect our us and democracy from an unelected open Nazi who has access to the personal information of Jews and civil servants
Everyone please call you Congress offices this morning and ask them why this has been allowed - make noise

I liked Bishop Budde's homily enough, but it really illustrates how the Democrats and media and anyone who should be vocally opposing him and this administration are complete pieces of toast that an appeal as gentle as hers has sent the right completely over the edge.
