But the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments are clear: no person shall be “deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.” It doesn’t say “citizen.” It says “person.” The Constitution doesn’t get to be optional.

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government.
That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

List of top 30 bills for the 2023 legislative session, with a check box next to every single one for “enacted” and “passed”
When I think about Melissa Hortman, I think about this list. Rest in power.

The head of the department of homeland security announced that she planned to use military force to take over a democratically elected government in the state of California and we are arguing about whether a California Senator properly identified himself at the door.

It will be a work weekend. But, so it goes. Will do some weeding in the garden this weekend as well. For now, sitting on the patio, having a beverage, listening to jazz and the wind moving through the trees.

Tried the roasting a Baby Bell over the fire and putting it between 2 Ritz crackers with pepper jelly. It was tasty! Thanks to our neighbor for the idea!

Planted the garden, which is always a huge undertaking. Hubby mowed the lawn, so we no longer look like the crazy people on the street. Now firing up the grill for steaks.
