The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.

I was certainly no threat. I asked my congressperson what his red line was to finally, vocally oppose the lawless administration and he didn’t answer the question, so I called out for him to answer it and he had me removed. This is what the ISA has come to. The constitution is in shreds.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from Brandon Bradford (@BrandonLBradfor ). The tweet reads: "Deporting Americans without due process then saying they no longer get due process because they aren’t in America means no one has rights, FYI. Nightmare scenario."
If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

REALLY IMPORTANT UPDATE PLEASE SHARE
#ASafeChoice physicians WILL prescribe medication abortion via telehealth FOR WOMEN WHO ANTICIPATE NEEDING THIS MEDICATION.
REPEAT: You do NOT need to be currently pregnant to get this prescription.
In an era of potentially draconian abortion bans, take note!
CDC employees are among the smartest and most dedicated people I’ve worked with in my career. The stakes are high—having people in government who follow the scientific method is a matter of life or death for Americans.

Joe Biden was right to pardon his son. Trump pardoned his criminal co-conspirators. He's gonna pardon terrorists. ENTIRELY MISS ME with your dumb arguments about how Democrats must follow rules Republicans ignore.

Based on the best-selling book by @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social, the documentary examines the first Trump administration’s family separation and immigration policies and the ongoing, years-long fight to reunite children.
To grab the limelight, Nancy Mace has targeted Sarah McBride, the nation’s first elected trans House member. The vitriol from Mace has been contemptible.
This is in sharp contrast with McBride, who has acted commendably and with grace. And ironically, McBride now has high national visibility.
