Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

Hey, you idiotic propagandists at the New York Post:

God Bless America isn't the national anthem. It's a SHOW TUNE written by Irving Berlin.

β€œThe Founders would never believe that it would ever come to pass that one state militia could be sent to another state for the purposes of political retribution”

THAT PART!

Thank you, Judge Perry.

If we are taking in β€œtrillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

Thank you for your tireless advocacy, Peter. Let us hope these heartless people don't succeed.

If you don't walk (or wheel) a mile in shoes of someone with chronic illness OR their caregivers, you can't fully understand the struggles we face. We fight SO hard to keep up w/forms & paperwork & granted FORTUNATE access to healthcare to LIVE.

To dangle healthcare & RIP it from us is MERCILESS! 🀬

The Oregon National Guard general says if they were to be deployed, they would be instructed under his leadership to protect the protesters and not ICE

New Yorker cartoon showing people mingling at a party. The quote at the bottom reads: β€œ I read this article and it said that, apparently, there was a time in our history when we didn’t all stagger around in horrified disbelief.

Governor Newsom signs bills further cracking down on hate and antisemitism in California schools | Governor of California

When I was a kid I got beaten up often for being Jewish & had swastikas drawn on my desk almost daily.

When my daughter was in school the teacher hung up a boys project on Adolf Hitler as his most admired historical figure.

Thanks to Governor Newsom for signing this!

The Supreme Court v. Democracy The Nation’s justice correspondent previews the court’s coming termβ€”and explains why it will never stand up to Trump.

It's the first Monday in October which means the Supreme Court is back in session. Here's my preview of all the cruelty and evil they will visit upon us this term.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are β€œused to it” but it is absolutely insane

Ronald Reagan–appointed U.S. District Judge William Young:

β€œICE goes masked for a single reason β€” to terrorize Americans into quiescence… To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed, masked secret police.”
