Unlike Supreme Court Justices, the rest of the fed’l judiciary is governed by canons of ethics. Among other things, they’re not supposed to attend political events & should avoid even an appearance of impropriety. joycevance.substack.com/p/judicial-e...

If it weren’t so menacing it would almost be funny. What exactly are they doing? They’re doing a horse trot through a park where very few people appear to be?
Full blown militarized raid on horseback, military tactical vehicles, and soldiers on foot with a perimeter set around McArthur Park. Looks like a big show of force by ICE/Border Patrol. It’s unclear which other military presence is there. Our reporter is on the way.

Defenders of billionaire tax avoiders say, "You can't tax unrealized investments!"
But banks don't have a problem putting a value on those same investments when lending cash to billionaires at interest rates far lower than they'd pay in income tax.
It's a strategy dubbed "Buy, Borrow, Die":

Trump’s unilaterally joining Israel in their war against Iran is also illegal and unconstitutional.
Something every Democrat should be saying.
There was no Congressional authorization.

Earlier today ICE agents hit someone with a car and tear gassed a neighborhood, sparking several fires and disrupting businesses.
Immigrants, by contrast, did not.

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

Bad shit happens when the military comes into to a volatile situation. This reminds me of a story from the 1992 riots in Los Angeles, to which some Marines deployed. I knew one of them and he told this story I also saw elsewhere — absent his telling it I would have assumed it was apocryphal.
