Madam Vice-President!🔥🔥🔥

The condescension of two-bit Attorney General Pamela Jo Bondi today underscores that the only thing this administration excels at is a complete lack of self-awareness.

Look, I prefer to have sympathy for the Palestinians of Gaza, all the civilians who are in harm’s way because of this war that Hamas started.

But seriously, some of y’all are just the worst bunch of allies someone could ask for. #2YearsTooLong

National Guard deployment moves ahead in Illinois after judge declines state's suit to block Trump call-up — Chicago Tribune Attorneys for the Trump administration said in court that Texas National Guard units could begin operations by Tuesday, the same day Illinois Guard members have been ordered to report.

Absolute failure of our system that a federal judge can be “very concerned” about Trump’s unlawful attempt to send troops into a city, but also powerless to stop it.

The default should be to protect us from government abuse, not to protect government from temporary inconvenience.

Been wondering how SCOTUS could get to "red gerrymanders ok, blue ones bad. " Here's one way:

DOJ sues CA, NY, other blue states, SCOTUS rules maps illegal. DOJ doesn't sue red states, maps remain.

BREAKING:

The Supreme Court just rejected Ghislaine Maxwell’s appeal of her criminal conviction for recruiting and grooming teenage girls for sexual abuse by Jeffrey Epstein.

The decision means that her conviction and 20-year criminal sentence remain in place.

Every crisis is an opportunity. This is the moment for Dems on Capitol Hill to call a news conference and make clear: Not one dime to fund the federal government until Trump withdraws his unlawful orders and agrees not to send troops to occupy Democratic-run cities

Good thread about Vance.

In JDV rant shown below, he treats Joy Reid as if she is in US on contingent basis. Should be "grateful" for its generosity.

Reid was *born* in New York. Grew up there and Denver. Undergrad at Harvard.

the people who told us to calm down because Roe was settled law are the same people now telling us to calm down because the military would never open fire on Americans

No warrants, no probable cause, detaining citizens. Zip tying children, using flash bangs, repelling through people’s windows and destroying their homes at night.

This Administration is lawless and abhorrent to our Constitution.

We are the frogs in the boiling pot.

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.

ICE is too dangerous to be left unaccountable.
Violence & abuse against Americans is wrong.

If you see an incident occurring, get out your cellphone. Document it. Send it to your Congressperson and the press. Do it anonymously if you need to. #BeTheChange

Trump is running everything into the ground while grifting billions for himself and his family.
