Don't know much about Judge Young but if we ever get through this whoever is in power should put a statue of him up outside the Supreme Court.

With billions of MAGA$$, every bully wannabe in the country is flocking to cosplay w the gear, masks, that sweet comraderie w fellow travelers. Theyve been told like their forebears from the '30s, "the others" have ruined the country so anything goes now. It is a wet dream coming true for some.
I love how obvious it is with his body language and everything about him what a fucking loser this guy was as a kid. He's even got the incel accent.
While masked agents were violently attacking a delivery worker this morning, bystanders repeatedly asked to see their badge numbers but they refused.
Bystander: You guys are ruining this country, you know that, right?
Agent: Liberals already ruined it.

This country was founded on the idea of habeas corpus.
It's a legal term that means no government has the right to arbitrarily take your freedom away. Preserving habeas corpus is not optional. It's a fundamental concept of justice that people have fought and died for. abcnews.go.com/Politics/wh-...

The WH says Trump is considering suspending habeas corpus. What would that mean?
The move to expel migrants would curtail a constitutional right to due process.

Not long until European democracies will be concerned about the US trying to foment far-right color revolutions now.

The discourse around white privilege in the 2010s while well intentioned did lasting damage to the cultural fabric of America.
It subtly changed the public & policy dialog about race from racism is bad to white people are bad.
Someone like Trump rising to power was inevitable once this happened.
