All claims (good or bad) should be supported by evidence. Not some obscure website, but solid empirical evidence. Otherwise, it is just your, or someone else's, opinion. No DMs unless I know you.

๐Ÿ‘€The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.

"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

"Ice-T ignited widespread online discussion after posting a strongly worded political remark that quickly gained traction across social media"

But it's okay to call Trump a messiah and compare him to Jesus? I'm amazed Christians aren't kicking MAGA/Christian Nationalist butts.

I have been asking this question all along. They are not temporary housing. They are Dachau and Auschwitz.

Please stop being so nice. He's a pedophile and a con man. Call him what he is and get mad about what happened to your sister and other young women.

History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.

How to Compete in Unfair Elections | Journal of Democracy Opposition movements often boycott rigged polls rather than risk legitimizing an autocrat. It is usually a mistake. Here is the playbook for how one opposition seized the advantage.

"Leaders of electoral authoritarian regimes use unfair elections to deceive their citizens, create the illusion of popular support, & legitimize their rule...nefarious tactics include repressing the opposition &... manipulating the law, media, electoral administration, & campaign resources."

Wait, I thought Central American immigrants were the enemy. If it is Islamists then why are they not locking them up?

If we don't stop talking about it he will go to war against Iran.

If we go to war against Iran it will not be over nukes. It will be another distraction from Epstein. The walls are closing in on Trump and he is desperate to get it off the news and social media.

Prices are still high (except gas) and my GOP Congresscritters won't even respond to me. These things are ONLY ISSUES when a Democrat is in office.

I donโ€™t think it will win Best Picture or Best Actor, but I really loved โ€œTrain Dreamsโ€ and Joel Edgerton is absolutely amazing in it.

Also, love seeing Bryce Dessner, a member of one of my favorite bands (The National), getting a nomination for original song with Nick Cave.

Jesse Jackson was a champion for civil rights, economic justice, and world peace.

I have always remembered his moving call for moral clarity at the 1988 DNC.

Someone brilliant recently said, "Companies are annoyed they have to go through you to get your money."

And I think Dems are the same way.
The DNC/Dem leadership is annoyed they have to appeal to voters to get our votes. They think they're entitled to our votes simply by being "not the GOP."
