Millerโs apparent elevation to shadow president and his seeming intent to declare an end to the constitutional order would, in any other administration, be treated as a executive branch meltdown that was immensely embarrassing for the president and requiring Millerโs immediate removal

WBEZ has a story out; remember things are still developing and details can change quickly.

Locals, CPD, press, a few protestors and legal observers remain on scene but the feds are gone. Air is still foul from all the chemicals. One protestor found one of the gas cannisters feds were deploying into the crowd

He *really* doesnโt want to swear in Grijalva and face that vote on the Epstein files.
This *also* means the government will be shut down for another ten days at least.
There is bigger trouble ahead for this economy.
This economy works well for a small part of the population - the super elite, maybe 10 to 15%. But not at all for the other 85 to 90% of people.
Costs of healthcare (+ uncertainty), inflation, utilities, home ownership, unemployment - all risks.

After the Trump administration sought to privately email some crucial spreadsheets instead of filing them on the public docket, a judge scolds:
"We have no secrets here. The government needs to file everything publicly and needs to do so now." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
There are cops who go years without unholstering their weapon on duty. The faster someone reaches for their gun, the bigger the coward they are. These ICE fuckers cling to them like a babyโs pacifier.

Reckless, undertrained ICE hires are a danger to everyone. This is terrorism against US citizens.
If this were any other year, we would be seeing this on the front page for months. I didn't even get wind of this with everything else going on. Arrrgh.

What will you be doing to protect citizens who are peacefully protesting and facing assault?
There are over 2,200 peaceful protests planned for October 18. Ensuring all of those events and organizers have the training, support, and resources they need is a massive undertaking. Please pitch in if you can to help make No Kings Day historic!

Appreciate the addition and lovecc the military enjoying themselves!!! GREAT MEME. Bet they even clappedโฆ thank you for my smile! It helps in these crazy times.
Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation.
This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.

I donโt see any reason to believe that they wonโt keep going bigger, harder, more violent until they finally cross some line. I guess that line wasnโt shooting & killing an immigrant in the street. Idk what it will be. I just know each week, they keep escalating.
