"Will pulling out Flock stop mass surveillance?" "No, the problem runs much deeper than one company. Flock is one brand of camera on one layer of a system that has at least eight other layers, most of them federal, most of them older, and nearly all of them larger."

We are Jews. We don’t make jokes about these things. We don’t dehumanize like this. Shame on Gvir. This is the type of commentary the Nazis would have made about us. Shame.

Ben Gvir posted this video on twitter today which shows fat and happy Palestinians on a conveyer built going through the Israeli "prison" (torture camp) system and coming out emaciated and maudlin. This is textbook genocidal content.

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is not about the southern border. ICE is about normalizing paramilitary force on our streets. It cannot be reformed. It cannot be retrained. ICE must be abolished.

See that skyrocketing blue line? That’s the number of times that SCOTUS has been issuing unsigned, unexplained rulings.

🚨 We analyzed the Supreme Court’s decisions over the past 20 years and found that for the first time, the court issued more consequential rulings on its “shadow docket” (unsigned orders often decided without arguments) than the traditional merits docket. www.propublica.org/article/supr...

Tierra Walker knew that abortion was illegal in Texas, but she thought that hospitals could make an exception for patients like her, whose health was clearly on the line. At 20 weeks pregnant, she died of preeclampsia. (Published January)

Today marks four years since the Supreme Court ended the constitutional right to abortion. Now, reproductive freedoms are under sustained attack across the country, regularly endangering the lives of those in need of care. We must protect reproductive health care at all costs.

Israel’s unhinged national security minister says “all of Lebanon must burn” and “you need to go berserk. To obliterate.” 4 IDF soldiers were just reportedly killed as Israel continues to attack Lebanon— clearly trying to make a peace deal with Iran impossible.

Article 4 of the US Constitution is pretty clear: "...no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."

Hegseth has radicalized Richard Leon, the most conservative partisanly Republican judge not appointed by Trump I've ever met.

Any political party spreading lies about voter fraud as a pretext to make it harder for every one to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone. Remember this.
