The judge applies the law. There is no opt out clause. Don’t like it, appeal. Congressional Republicans are enabling the dismantling of our foundation. They must be held accountable at the ballot box.
The heart of our constitutional crisis in one exchange between me and Sec. Mullin. When asked a simple question - if he will obey court orders - he says he will not because some court orders are "politicized". That's not how democracy works. And that's why we are in a crisis.

Rep. Greg Steube: "You see Macron and the French sending troops to Greenland. I would love to see the US military up against French troops in Greenland, because it would not last very long. It would be a very small skirmish ... we don't care about what Macron and the French want."
Just think what we COULD do with the money being spent on deportations of people who have none nothing but contributing to their communities. Our government is focused on the wrong things and we let them do it.
People want to have their basic needs met. They want to be paid a living wage. They want to stop being nickle and dimed by powerful corporations who control so much of our lives. They do not want Venezuela. They do not want Greenland. They do not want masked thugs terrorizing our communities.
If this isn’t the wake up call of 100s of wake up calls, I’m confused as to what it is?
Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

It takes a humble leader with high standards for compassion, professionalism and respect for humanity to kill this kind of toxic behavior. Unfortunately, that does not exist in his chain of command. Cowards and bullies.
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Vet Voice Foundation has been key in advising courts about the damage these deployments have done to the Guard and military. We're heartened by this decision but won't rest until all Guardsmen get to return home to their families and communities.
We are pleased the court agreed with us: deploying National Guard troops in this manner is unwarranted and damaging to our military. Maintaining the clear line between domestic policing and military service is essential for our institutional integrity.

This should be a Five Alarm Fire on every G'ddamned media outlet in the world. I very rarely post a link to someone else's newsletter...as I have my own. This, however...is a MUST see. open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...

ICE detained a veteran and U.S. citizen for three days. They didn’t let him contact his family or a lawyer. They didn’t let him change or shower. They didn’t give him a reason for his detention. Under this regime, no one is safe. apnews.com/article/us-a...
Thank you to @thelincolnprojects.bsky.social for helping us get out of this mess.

One day, we’ll get back to appreciating experience, professionalism and intellect.
Disgusting and gross.
BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

This week, Republicans tried to jam through their tax scam in the dead of night. Democrats fought back to expose this bill's cuts to Medicaid and SNAP. In today’s Democratic Daily Download, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social explains how we will keep standing up for hardworking American taxpayers.
