Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldn’t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

Murray Osorio PLLC, counsel for Kilmar Abrego Garcia:
"If the government believes there is a legitimate case to be made, it should present that case in a court of law … not on social media. But that cannot happen until Mr. Abrego Garcia is returned to the United States and given full due process."

I don’t know, millions of people got in the streets a few days ago, the moderates are freaking out about their money, and the President of the United States is carrying out a wildly unpopular, intentional demolition of the economy.
Might be time for leaders with spines to actually get in the game.

The credibility of the US government is completely shot.
Gone.
Annihilated.
Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration.
Ever.

We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

- Withdraw unanimous consent from all Senate business until constitutional rule was restored
- Refuse to vote for any legislation until constitutional rule was restored
- Boycott as a caucus until constitutional rule was restored
- Withdraw unanimous consent from all Senate business until constitutional rule was restored
- Refuse to vote for any legislation until constitutional rule was restored

America taking over Greenland is a foolish idea. America destroying its relationship with Canada is utter idiocy. America applying tariffs and engaging in trade wars with neighbors is economic nonsense. A lunatic is holding America hostage and his enablers are making fools of themselves.

It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Eliminating waste, fraud, & abuse NEVER involves WRITING CODE to alter processes BEFORE REVIEWING the processes to POSITIVELY INDENTIFY the malfeasance, & the indiscriminate FIRING OF EMPLOYEES has NOTHING to do with ending abuse...it is, in itself, an abuse of legal & constitutional procedure.

Now that English is the official language of the United States, I look forward to everyone understanding the difference between “your” and “you’re,” “their” and “they’re,” and “to,” “two” and “too.”
