However, for this one, it will be called a Cession.

Right wing media (both βnewβ and legacy) is using the same tactics we see groups like Al-Qaeda use to recruit.
The United States Government has no legal authority to snatch a person who is lawfully present in the United States off the street and remove him from the country without due process. The Government's contention otherwise, and its argument that the federal courts are powerless to intervene, are unconscionable.

11/ The tariffs arenβt economic policy. They are political weapons.
But as long as we see this clearly, we can stop him. Public mobilization is working. Today, a few Republicans joined Democrats to vote against one set of tariffs.
The people still have the power.
Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

The White House admits they sent an innocent father of three to the prison in El Salvador but they are still fighting to make sure he doesnβt come home.

Itβs fine to be old, young, irreligious, religious, straight, queer, this, that.
Itβs fine to be different. Weβre all different.
Itβs fine to seek happiness, fulfillment, respect, love.
Itβs fine.
Not hurting you.
Love thy neighbor.
Live and let live.
Equal rights.
Equal opportunity.
Equal justice.

Our entire national security leadership team is a national security risk.
That seems bad. Is it bad?
TO RECAP:
- theyβre snatching innocent people off the streets
- theyβre deporting people to supermax prisons solely because they have tattoos
- theyβre using the Signal app (which holds messages temporarily) so evidence of their crimes isnβt found later
- Republicans are fine with all this
Thank you Senator Cantwell!!
The USAID OIG report goes into more detail on the human rights violations caused by this sloppily written executive order.
Iβm hoping you can work with Secretary Rubio to mitigate these harms.
Lives are at stake.
You are on the right side of history - thank you!
I am for a very strong national privacy law to protect our consumers. So, I don't take lightly somebody getting access to accounts and information, storing it, moving it around, sharing it with other people. I'm not for the government doing this kind of thing without oversight.
