Good job, keep as much true βrealityβ in your life as possible. I try to do that that, just remember that my day to day life, my community is actually mostly good people that would help anyone in need. American politics on the other hand are horrificβ¦only to be looked upon minutes at a time. Lol
Changing the name of the Department of Defense will cost billions.We could build units for all unhoused veterans. Or give service members a pay raise so 35K active duty members wouldnβt have to rely on food stamps. Orβ¦ orβ¦ orβ¦

Why do ICE agents need sniper training? Are they going to start shooting the immigrants instead of detaining and deporting them?
We've become the monsters we used to hunt. At least two of the men released from CECOT needed help getting off the plane and were put in wheelchairs because of the physical torture they endured. DOJ actions. And the evangelicals cheer for this.

Pls read the USCIS statement first that just came out. So, immigrants pay thousands of dollars to the USCIS (thatβs funded through these fees), just to come to an interview with possibility to be detained? Think HARD before you decide to do that.
The bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act is a necessary step to ban Members of Congress and their families from engaging in insider trading. It is time to pass this bill and make it clear to the American people that their elected officials put them first.
Prominent far-right influencers have been attempting to rehabilitate Hitler's reputation. That's not an exaggeration; it's easily documented. I wrote about why they are doing this, what they hope to gain, and what it means for America.
π¨NEW: AG Bondi uses her authority as AG to reinstate two precedent decisions from Trump's first term (Matter of A-B- and Matter of L-E-A-) that aim to end asylum for victims of domestic violence from countries unwilling or unable to protect them, and asylum for people targeted for family ties.
Drug trafficking is not a capital crime; it doesnβt carry a death sentence. I genuinely cannot think of anything under U.S. law that would permit premeditated government assassination of people suspected of drug trafficking.

Meet Candon Dahle, Why isn't he not in jail for life? Bingham County Idaho THIS CHILD RAPIST was sentence to 180 days in jail for raping a 7 year old girl for 5 years, part of the plea deal was that he would not have to register as a sex offender. WOW: (white privilege )

The extent to which ICE is ignoring all civil rights and due process is astounding β and indicative of a culture where theyβve been told they can do literally no wrong. Agency and admin leaders must face sanctions and legal consequences.

Sen. Klobuchar: I'm so tired of some of my colleagues who won't stand up and vote for some stricter national gun standards. Better background checks, triggers if a number of guns are purchased at once, triggers on assault weapons. Why don't these people have the courage to stand up and vote for it?

Chief Justice Roberts says the rule of law is eroding like we've rarely seen. Maybe he should've thought of that before ruling the president is above the law. You don't get to burn the house down and act shocked it's on fire.

SCOTUS will hear an Illinois case that could decide whether federal candidates have the legal right to challenge election laws in court. The GOP candidates who brought the case argue the stateβs 14-day grace period harms their chances of winning.
