The Supreme Court finally decided to stand for rule of law, with a quick, late night order telling the govt to stop misusing a 1798 law that authorizes removal of enemy soldiers in wartime to deport US residents without due process.

Better late than never, but I fear it may be too late. We’ll see.

Undocumented immigrants paid about $26 billion per year into Social Security, even though they will get nothing out of it.

They subsidize citizens to an extraordinary degree. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/13/b...

MUST-WATCH: House GOP leadership refused to allow Rep. Brittany Peterson, who's on maternity leave, to vote remotely, but that didn't stop her.

She showed up, not only voted but also spoke out against the GOP budget proposal with Sam, who turned 1 month old today, in her hands.

History has found Janet Mills
"Do not be misled: this is not just about who can compete on the athletic field, this is about whether a President can force compliance with his will, without regard for the rule of law that governs our nation. I believe he cannot.”

🚨 WAKE UP PEOPLE! 🚨

Elon Musk has ILLEGALLY FIRED:

❌ USDA employees during a BIRD FLU outbreak 🦠🐔
❌ The FAA chair while planes are DROPPING FROM THE SKY ✈️🔥
❌ Officials protecting us from a NUCLEAR ATTACK 💥

At this point how is this NOT an attack on the 🇺🇸?

WHY IS HE STILL ALLOWED TO DO THIS?! 🤬

Please don't use Nancy Mace's so-called victim hotline, advocates say
No one picks up. That's not a hotline—it's Nancy's answering machine.

The only way I can interpret the GOP's actions is that they are 100% certain they will never face another democratic election again.

They hit the shore and burned their ships.

My boyfriend texted; "I'm leaving you" and waited several minutes followed by, "after lunch to go shopping with my brother."

I texted him back, "Remind your brother to come over later for a hand job," following minutes later with, "-searching and advice on his resume."
