I wonder how many production employees on Kimmel's show are now without jobs, because GOP wants to shut down free speech??

Where have all the WORKERS gone, long time passing???

Farm workers, auto workers, day laborers, tech workers, gov't workers, media workers, etc etc

From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!)

Bucharest mayor Nicusor Dan is victorious in Romania's presidential election! This bodes well for Slovenia next year.
Hungary may possibly be too far gone in Putin's pocket. But Romania's rejection of the far-right shows it stands firm with its NATO / EU compacts

Patel doesn't know or is more likely lying. It's not just the 5th Amendment, either, it's the 14th amendment applying to state level due process. Plus, there are Supreme Court decisions reiterating that *everyone* inside the US, here illegally or not, get due process rights. Shaughnessy vs US etc.
Quite an exchange just now between Sen. Merkley and FBI Director Kash Patel over whether due process applies to people targeted by the Alien Enemies Act.

Is America next? Rachel Maddow didn't tell us the full story tonight about Hungary's protests: it's not just about anti-LGBTQ legislation, it's also about facial recognition of protesters. It's not just happening in the capital Budapest.. protests are also going on in smaller cities like Debrecen.
