Attn: Kristi Noem - a federal pardon will not save you from the multiple state criminal charges coming your way for authorizing ICE to assault unarmed protestors - and I hope this video is Exhibit A in your Oregon trial.

He can try, but at this point I don't think the military command is going to obey that order. But if Pritzker calls up the IL National Guard against ICE thatβs armed rebellion & senior military would have no basis to refuse that order. JBβs trying to avoid that.

Miller's desperate to invoke the Insurrection Act because he can see the FAFO consequences headed his way & knows a Trump pardon doesn't include state criminal charges. Pritzker has made it clear that he's going after Miller & everyone else behind ICE's gestapo tactics.

The Insurrection Act can be invoked ββ¦to address an insurrection, in any state, which makes it impracticable to enforce the law.β If Pritzker uses the IL National Guard or police against ICE it gives Trump the basis to invoke the IA & deploy the US military against US citizens.

Having seen Kenton County Prosecutor Rob Sanders in action I can tell you that he could care less about his obligation to act in good faith. The facts, the evidence, the law and his oath of office are completely irrelevant.

It may be overturned but it is much more than "historically interesting", it's a Federal Court Judge w/30+ on the bench who isn't going to back down from defending the Constitution no matter how many times the Supreme Court rebukes him. This is how you save democracy & the rule of law.

I have a tremendous amount of respect for you because of your relentless work to expose the abuses by ICE and other LEOs, but this absolutely is a stereotype. Racism (and every other nasty -ism) isn't limited to any one race or determined by the color of your skin.

As far as I'm concerned Jefferies & Schumer are so incompetent that they might as well be working for MAGA. And why the Democrats in Congress are letting these guys continue in their leadership positions is beyond me.

Partial transcript from AG Lindsey Halligan's first appearance in Court on the Comey indictment.
Message for Halligan - I hope you like public humiliation b/c Comey's attorneys are going to hand you your ass on this case & then they're going after you personally for malicious prosecution.

It's very unusual for an AG to be in a courtroom without one of their staff attorneys. My guess is that the attorneys & staff at her office aren't cooperating with this hot mess & Halligan decided she could do this on her own.
Very much looking forward to Halligan continuing to look like a fool.

Here's the difference, those students could choose to pick grapes or harvest turnips. This is a call for compulsory national service wherein you have no choice. Unless of course you qualify for an exemption & you can bet that any follower of Donald 'Bone Spurs' Trump will qualify for an exemption.

I wonder how many Sumner County school children Superintendent Langford would be willing to sacrifice to Kirk's view that gun deaths β including school shootings - were worth it "so that we can have the 2nd Amendment to protect our other God given rights."

Because if you call it a day for "peaceful civic discourse" not only do you get to glorify Kirk & Christian Nationalism, you also get to label anyone who opposes this as an enemy of both God & democracy.
It is never about 'peaceful civic discourse' with Christian Nationalists. Never.

Kirk was not a 'devout Christian', he was a devout Christian Nationalist. Just because you identify as 'Christian' doesn't mean you are one. See for example the Church of Jesus Christ Christian, a "Christian Identity" church founded in 1946 by KKK organizer Wesley Swift.

This guy is an ICE supervisor. Watch as he grabs this woman, shoves her across the hall into a wall & then slams her to the floor. She had to be taken to the hospital.
If an ICE supervisor does this in a public hallway w/multiple people videotaping, just what is he doing when there are no cameras.

Three men in plain clothes, no ID, force a man to the ground, handcuff him & then aim a taser at his neck. Then they threatened the guy videotaping this atrocity but backed off when he told them "I'm a combat vet and I will knock you the fuck out".
ICE claimed that the vet was "an agitator".

husband at the age of 13 by her father (this was in the mid-1950βs). Why any woman who experienced child marriage would be in favor of this is beyond me, but they are out there.

Unfortunately Iβve known women in the US who thought child marriage was perfectly acceptable. A friend's grandmother repeatedly encouraged him to marry a young girl (she thought 13/14 was a good age) so that he could "raise her the way he wanted her to be". My great-aunt was basically sold to her

Evangelical Christians who believe that 'The Rapture' is imminent also believe that Satan in the form of a dragon will be defeated by the archangels.
