Americans believe in rule of law, courts say that due process is required. If a president can ignore the courts and disappear lawful residents, there is no limit to what can come next. President Trump has said he wants to abduct and deport U.S. citizens. If this isn’t stopped now, no one is safe.

Editor’s Note | If They Can Be Disappeared, You Can, Too A government that can disappear 238 men to an El Salvadoran prison can do the same to any of us, News Editor Ashton Pittman warns.

Nationalism is a form of religious extremism that focuses on promoting the views of its followers in order to achieve prominence or dominance in political, cultural, and social life. Nationalists seek to preserve the status of a Christian state. Christian nationalism overlaps with white supremacy.

It seems as if Mar-a-Lago's spa and Epstein Island were competitors.

Maxwell was ineligible to be transferred to a minimum security prison because she is a convicted sex offender. The Bureau of Prisons had to reach in and waive the rule specifically for Maxwell to allow a sex trafficker—a sexual abuser of girls—to be moved to her current facility.

Ghislaine Maxwell urges Supreme Court to hear her criminal appeal The new filing responds to a Justice Department brief that argued the justices should leave Maxwell's criminal convictions in place.

This evil woman should never see the light of day outside of prison. She procured young girls for Epstein and lied to them about what they would be doing. Epstein was raping children when trump called him a terrific guy. She is as guilty as Epstein.

Republican Christians Make Me Hope Hell Exists As a child raised in the Catholic Church, I was brought up believing that hell was real, though as I got older, I began to grow skeptical.

The meek are not inheriting the earth, they're getting the shit kicked out of them.
The mourners are getting more grief.
The peacemakers are not being blessed but bloodied.
The least are not being loved, they're being further minimized, silenced, and erased

Virginia Giuffre was a warrior.

Believe her.

She sacrificed her anonymity to call for justice.

Trump and Epstein brutally and repeatedly raped her.

Trump and his thugs are now raping her again, and every other victim.

There were over a thousand of them.

Bondi knows.

All I know is what I learned from
Science. I believe science, so we are in trouble.

The plan all along.

The GOP has no brains or balls.

Not that they can't.
They WON'T
