Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

They are not “going after illegals,” they are targeting brown people, because it’s not about immigration, it’s about white nationalism.

This isn’t “law and order” — it’s fascism.

Don’t let them pretend that what they’re doing is normal, legal, or moral.

The Trump administration announced Tuesday it will revoke a federal policy that required hospitals to provide emergency abortions when necessary to stabilize a woman’s medical condition.

As I asked my House Republican colleagues at 3:00 am — why did they schedule a hearing on their reckless budget bill in the dead of the night?

Because they can’t defend it.

America is tragically deceptive right now.

You can go out in your local community, and everything looks perfectly normal.

It doesn’t look like a fascist dictatorship, it doesn’t feel like a failing democracy, which is why we’re in such trouble.

The fascists REALLY freak out whenever someone suggests Donald Trump should be impeached and removed from office.

They KNOW he deserves it and so they are terrified of the idea gaining traction.

Keep pushing the idea.

It makes the monsters scream.

As you read about Trump giving away the farm to the Gulf nations that bribe him, remember that we still don't know what happened to all the docs he had at Mar-a-Lago. He flew some away on June 3, 2023, and managed to hide others from the feckless search the FBI did, then came back for them.
