Unless of course the DOJ doesn’t have a real case against him & by deporting him they can say “Oh shucks! We would have certainly gotten a conviction…oh well. Not our problem anymore.” All about the optics.

Fingers crossed it was not the transgender detainee (O-J-M), who was illegally moved from OR to WA last month & as of last report from her lawyer was in solitary confinement (per her own request for safety reasons) in Tacoma. @jjindc.bsky.social Do we know where this flight was headed?

Apparently James Comer…

Photo of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "Commitment Card" that he had Birmingham marchers sign, pledging themselves to the nonviolent movement. The text: I HEREBY PLEDGE MYSELF—MY PERSON AND BODY—TO THE NONVIOLENT MOVEMENT. THEREFORE I WILL KEEP THE FOLLOWING TEN COMMANDMENTS: 1. MEDITATE daily on the teachings and life of Jesus. 2. REMEMBER always that the nonviolent movement in Birmingham seeks justice and reconciliation—not victory. 3. WALK and TALK in the manner of love, for God is love. 4. PRAY daily to be used by God in order that all men might be free. 5. SACRIFICE personal wishes in order that all men might be free. 6. OBSERVE with both friend and foe the ordinary rules of courtesy. 7. SEEK to perform regular service for others and for the world. 8. REFRAIN from the violence of fist, tongue, or heart. 9. STRIVE to be in good spiritual and bodily health. 10. FOLLOW the directions of the movement and of the captain on a demonstration. I sign this pledge, having seriously considered what I do and with the determination and will to persevere.

To participate in Birmingham marches, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. "required" marchers to sign a "Commitment Card" pledging themselves to the nonviolent movement.

As America approaches a weekend of protest, these are good to keep in mind. I will do so at the DC parade on Saturday. (🧵 1/5)

Some Notes on the City of Angels and the Nature of Violence I think maybe it's begun, the bigger fiercer backlash against the Trump Administration which is itself a violent backlash against every good thing that's happened over the past several decades – the a...

Here is the thought-provoking article that the wonderful @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social wrote that got her FB account disabled. In it she calls for nonviolent responses to what the current regime is doing in LA, while calling out the violence. This doesn’t meet “Community Guidelines?” U be the judge

Especially after the broadcast of “Good Night, Good Luck” this past weekend. How tone deaf!

And the irony of this suspension for stating facts immediately after the live broadcast hold “Good Night, Good Luck” last night. SMH

I watched it yesterday afternoon & an hour later World War Douche erupted. Not that we all didn’t see this coming, but my mind was blown by real life imitating the art(?) almost immediately after viewing. Wild.

Reported and blocked.

In my early teens, once I had a bad sore throat & my grandfather, who never interacted w me (undiagnosed Alzheimer’s at that time), said to me “You a little hoarse?” I looked at him like he was crazy & walked away. For years I literally thought he was telling me that he thought I was a horse. SMH

Is this in addition to the date error? Or are they correcting an error to be made on 3/25/25? lol

Maybe she was referring to a certain CJ who is now whining about the leopards coming to eat his face after he gave them power to eat faces with impunity?

Don't question the physics.

Most Americans oppose Trump's immigration policies

Trump's handling of immigration drops underwater after Democrats fight back against ICE overreach and violations of civil liberties. app.sosha.ai/s/7YpVDOjp

To make sure they can charge the “immigrant” thief with a felony…

Everything he touches dies…

Is it possible that a high level admin member is going to be fired to be the fall guy for this whole episode? tRump has already stated he had nothing to do with this & pinned on Rubio…

Sign that reads “Nevertheless We The People Resist!”

Sign with drawn image of 1940’s Uncle Sam kicking a box off a boat. The box says “Trump Tarriffs” and on top of the box are cartoon images of Musk, Trump and Vance. The large text on the sign reads: “Party like it’s 1773” which is the year of the Boston Tea Party.

I couldn’t get to any local “No Kings Day Of Action” Protests today, so instead I posted my signs roadside in front of my house.

I call this sort of thing a “stupid” power. My sister seems to always get asked where the bathroom is at Walmart.

"Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name." -- John Stuart Mill (1867)

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

“They were careless people…they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness…and let other people clean up the mess they had made…” -- F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby (April 10, 1925).

In these trying times, may each of us have a burning heart and a wolf inside us that thrives…

Is it though? It seems to me, his MO has been to break things and then blame others for the (obvious) consequences…

Right when I felt the moment stop
Glass shattered on the white cloth
Everybody moved on

And yet the Admin is arguing that all those in the class should have filed habeas between the proclamation and being loaded on flights…

Yeah, that one sucks too.
