People who force their religion on others will force their politics on others. It’s why we separate church from state.

NBC's new poll say the most important issue for deciding who to support for Congress is: "Protecting constitutional rights/protecting democracy."

If you agree, I suggest you subscribe the news outlet that focuses like a laser on just that. Sign up for Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

The most unbelievable thing about the Progressive β€œstop young homeowners from turning into their parents” commercials is acting like young people in this country can afford a house.

Canada says β€œelbows up.” I say for America, β€œcameras out.” Film every last one of these brutal criminals. We will need the evidence for their trials.

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

If SNAP benefits vanished tomorrow, feeding 42 million Americans for a month would cost about $7.8 billion.That’s less than 1% of the combined net worth of the three richest men in the U.S. A reminder of how obscene inequality has become and how easily hunger could be solved if we chose to.

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been β€œimmigrants go home.”

It would have been β€œget your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

As discussed above, government employees have made extrajudicial statements that are troubling, especially where many of them are exaggerated if not simply inaccurate. (Doc. Nos. 118 at 2–8; 124). These statements made allegations regarding Abrego’s β€œcharacter or reputation” and expressed government officials’ views on Abrego’s β€œguilt or innocence.” For example, the DHS Secretary stated that Abrego is a β€œMS-13 gang member, human trafficker, serial domestic abuser, and child predator.

A federal judge issues a GAG ORDER barring Trump's DOJ and Department of Homeland Security from violating Kilmar Abrego Garcia's right to a fair trial, citing a record of "troubling" statements that are "exaggerated if not simply inaccurate."

With Power Move on Rare Earths, China Plays Both Victim and Bully In weaponizing its dominance over the crucial minerals, Beijing is using tactics that it once denounced, potentially alienating nations it wants to court.

News Analysis: In Beijing’s version of the trade war, the U.S. is the bully and China is a victim, a rising power trying to protect the global economy while Washington unfairly hurls tariffs and technology bans its way.
