After law school, only one thing is gonna keep me from prosecuting murders in my home town, and that is prosecuting the shameful federal β€˜law enforcement’ officers who are so proudly violating the law. Save your signing bonuses for defense lawyers. You’ll need them.

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

"So, Democrats have three words for this: no fucking way. It's literally life or death. We will not let Republicans blow up our health care system."

This is, hands down, the best comms work Chuck Schumer has done in YEARS. Surprisingly good.

After yelling and obfuscating to senators for hours, Dick Durbin hit her with this one: "Eventually you are going to have to answer for your conduct in this. You won't do it today, but eventually you will." Suddenly, she went SILENT.πŸ”₯ She knows.

You're phucked, Pam....just sayin'

How do we know this isn't Putin's doing?

I wonder the same. The American Bar Association has ethical and professional standards. Violations result in disbarment. I would imagine contempt of Congress just MIGHT be a violation, not to mention DERELICTION OF DUTY in not bringing charges against moneybag Homan. πŸ€”

Her college (which isn’t even listed on her website) should take back her psychology degree. As an undergrad I gave an oral presentation on the history of homosexuality. When a classmate said it’s a choice the professor made him leave the room. I would’ve made him stay.

Supreme Court skeptical of state bans on conversion therapy aimed at LGBTQ kids The court heard arguments in a case brought by Kaley Chiles, a Christian talk therapist in Colorado, who argues that the state's ban violates her First Amendment rights.

It seems the SCOTUS is about to rule that Christians have a 1st Amendment (?) right to torture gay kids into denying their true nature.

The USA's morph into Gilead is almost complete.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

It’s sad that some folks only β€˜see the light’ when it hits home. We were sent here to represent hundreds of thousands of people, not just our households.

It’s time for Republicans to remember their oath and do right by the people they serve.

This was from a few days ago and I wish them the best.

Also, just imagining Trump writing this about Melanoma gave me the biggest laugh of the day.
