Boring, Nerdy, husband and dad. Would much rather not be living in interesting times. In simpler days I enjoyed DND, video games, fantasy novels, hiking, shooting, and over priced whiskey and craft beer. When in doubt, eldritch blast a fascist. He/him.

Sen. PADILLA: This Justice Department fired a 15-year career prosecutor who put away sex traffickers and transnational terrorists. She was marched out of her office. Why? Because she had the audacity to remind Border Patrol that it should follow court orders.

Graphic with Senator Warren asking: Is it consistent with the First Amendment for DOD to revoke a reporterβs press credentials for publishing a story thatβs critical of President Trump? DoD official responds: Yes... If the basis was that the person published information that was not otherwise approved for release by the Department. Senator Warren Responds: Whoa.
Trumpβs nominee to be the Armyβs lawyer is confused about the First Amendment.
Independent journalists must be free to report the facts without fear of retaliation.
If we're sending troops to war under false pretenses, Americans have a right to know.
Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.

Today, these lands could soon see chainsaws and logging trucks amid a push by Trump to raze these ecosystems for timber.
I donβt have anything that resembles a faith anymore, but even the conservative church I was raised in would have lost its mind to hear something like this when I was growing up. I know the bones of this were always there, but itβs still surreal to see how far the βChurchβ as a whole has gone.

It seems clearβI think to everyone, nowβthat a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year.
