This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.

Trump administration removes Rainbow Flag from Stonewall National Monument The Trump administration removed a large Rainbow Flag from a flagpole at the Stonewall National Monument, the National Park Service confirmed to Gay City News

They have now removed the Pride flag from the Stonewall Inn.

Erasure. Just like the Nazis.

We’re literally killing ourselves. They’ve been working on cutting edge cancer vaccines

Federal Judges have a very real and well-established reason to fear doxing and violence and yet I doubt anyone thinks it would be acceptable for them to preside from the bench in a hood.

If a university student group had celebrated Charlie Kirk being killed, complete with a graphic made from an actual picture of the killing, the whole lot of them would have been expelled before the ink on the digital story was dry.

The latest: Eight more federal prosecutors set to leave the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office The recent wave of departures follows the mass exodus of six veteran prosecutors last month who quit in protest of recent directives from the U.S. Department of Justice.

BREAKING Star Tribune:

Eight additional federal prosecutors are in the process of leaving the Minnesota U.S. Attorney's Office, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the situation.

The departures follow the mass exit of six veteran prosecutors who left the office last month.

Again, there is one constitutional mechanism for solving problems like "The president threatens to nationalize & overturn valid elections." For the previous 45 presidents, it would have been used already. Everyone is just kidding themselves at this point & pretending there are other solutions.

Just think about the amazing Epstein scoops the new CBS Evening News contributors will have just by interviewing each other.

The thing I can’t figure is if Trump knows his taste is gaudy kitsch and he just enjoys inflicting it on Washington for the outraged reaction or if he genuinely believes Russia cornered the market on beauty.

Abolish ICE and fire all agents is the moderate position.

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

Utterly pathetic and historically unprecedented.

Hey, at least they’re not masked

If I were the mayor or council of Los Angeles, I would simply fire the police chief and hire someone willing to enforce the law

One of the hardest things to explain to people who aren’t here is the very real feeling that we are in a war against the federal government. Not only are we occupied by unaccountable armed, masked paramilitaries, but we are constantly aware our neighbors might be abducted in the blink of an eye.

U.S. cardinal urges defunding of ICE: 'We need to see what's happening in front of us' One of the country’s highest-ranking Catholic leaders, and a top ally of Pope Leo, is sharply criticizing the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement, calling ICE a “lawless organization." Card...

Minnesota judges nearly shut out DOJ in a week of immigrant detention hearings An MS NOW review of court cases found that in 61 challenges to immigrant detention last week, all but one succeeded, an apparent blow to Trump’s Operation Metro Surge.

Wait, they're replacing a Greg with a Tom

You may be surprised to know that there's not a single provision in the US Constitution that is about domestic law enforcement.

Tl;dr: There are no other "fixes" anymore. This presidency needs to end. Now. And the longer we pretend that this isn't the actual, prescribed, "normal" constitutional mechanism & process for times like this, the longer we're going to find ourselves here on the precipice of full authoritarianism.

If you don’t think Jesus would be horrified by Donald Trump then I’m pretty sure you’re misunderstanding Trump or Jesus.

The U.S. is on the verge of losing its measles elimination status Last year, the CDC confirmed 2,144 measles cases across 44 states — the most since 1991 — and nearly 50 separate outbreaks.

Experts fear the vaccine-preventable virus has regained a foothold and that the U.S. may soon follow Canada in losing the achievement of having eliminated it.

Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands….

Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

Reporters should be asking congressional Republicans what *other* kinds of Americans they think deserve to be executed in the street by the president's goon squad.
