Trump was determined to get boots on the ground in Portland. But blue state governors and a principled Trump-appointed federal judge were equally determined to prevent that. My write-up on this weekend’s game of whack-a-militia in the replies.

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

The image is an X post by Rep. Ted Lieu (@RepTedLieu ) from 3 hours ago, with the caption "Hmmm... weird." The post includes a meme with three panels. The first panel, labeled "Republicans when they have to vote on the Epstein files," shows an empty hallway with an American flag. The second panel, labeled "Republicans when there's a government shutdown," shows an empty conference room. The third panel, labeled "Republicans when it's time to cut taxes for billionaires," shows a group of people clapping and cheering.

Rep. Ted Lieu is so good at this.

The National Guard soldier pissed about Trump’s DC takeover “This is an encroachment on everything we signed up for and it feels like a violation.”

Every time I post about ICE tactics, I get replies, “This is what I voted for.”

Really? You voted for a mother crying for mercy while her child is still in school—about to come out and find her missing?

There isn’t another way to go about this that preserves our humanity?

When NO KINGS reigns over your parade.
