You have a loser for a leader!

It’s time for soft secession How blue states can use their economic clout to stand up to Trump’s agenda—starting with California.

Maybe, could be, might be... time for soft secession www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The Supreme Court v. Democracy The Nation’s justice correspondent previews the court’s coming term—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.
My *cover story* in @thenation.com :)

I like it.

Y'all thought the unimaginable would never happen in America, but it is happening. 😳👇

Spending $200 billion on ICE is a terrible idea I've covered federal law enforcement for two decades. Here are the things that worry me most.

"We’re creating something even more dangerous to the country: A masked monster of a law enforcement agency, one uniquely unsuited for its new power, authority, reach, and funding levels."

Duh Donald. Duh!

Welcome to Chicago ICE!

ICE vehicle with smashed-out windows and flat tires.

This is the way! They can't drag people off if they have to carry them.

They still haven’t found all the missing children from the floods. Why are they more worried about Illinois than about the children in Texas?

This

Could be an accident or a fault or an FSB Hybrid act in support of their agent!

Former FCC Chair Wheeler: An autocrat's favorite tool is a monopoly on telling the story. And if you can control the people who tell that story, then you've got an autocrat's greatest dream.

Could be something innocent but given the level of interference so far this looks very FSB 'Hybrid' to me!

More messaging like this please

The brownshirts are everywhere.

And they *will* come to your street eventually.

This is not just going to happen to "other people."

Where are the commanding officers of those sailors in the background. How are they letting this happen?

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Kia kaha.

Everything by Trump and Miller right now is weakness.

They know they've lost the majority and their policies are unpopular and they've F'd up the economy.

So, they'll use the military and threats and unleash their Reeks.

But, they don't have the numbers.

All hands on deck resistance.

The protest didn't turn violent. The Trump gestapo came in with violence.

Trump is bankrupting farmers, spiking prices for small biz and working families, and creating chaos in American cities. And he still has time for a round of golf!

Republicans like to claim they aren't actually cutting Medicaid.

Which is an easily disproven lie.

AOC "I think 'Abolish ICE' is a call to action on several levels. One is the literal interpretation of abolishing ICE, which I support...I don't believe that an agency that systematically & repeatedly violates human rights, I don't think that agency can be reformed. I think it has to be abolished."

IL Congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh: "I think Kristi Noem should have consequences. I think she should be tried at The Hague."

Illinois State Police have been documented aiding ICE at the Broadview, Illinois facility. While state law (the Illinois TRUST Act) bars troopers from directly enforcing immigration law, they have joined ICE

ICE officers stopped a family at gunpoint and smashed the car window on top of the newborn baby. “I was screaming that there was a baby,” cried the mother. “But they didn’t care,” and covered the baby with their bodies, fearing that the glass would hurt him.

Kristi Noem is mad they wouldn’t let her in to use the restroom in Illinois today.
