A human in Texas who believes in equality for all without any reservations and a lifelong Democrat. My views are my own.
1. BREAKING
Judge Immergut, who was nominated by President Trump, has just granted a request by Oregon and California to block the deployment of National Guard troops from Texas and California to Portland.
BOOM 🔥:
Judge Immergut issues a second Temporary Restraining Order prohibiting the relocation, federalization, or deployment of ANY NATIONAL GUARD FROM ANY STATE into the state of Oregon.
This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.
America is on the brink of martial law.
Do not be silent.
Trump is now calling up National Guard troops from states to send them into other states.
He’s trying to send California troops into Oregon & Texas troops into Illinois.
This is illegal & threatens to tear apart our country even further.
He is trying to provoke a civil war.
Community pooled their money to pay for her green card—then ICE locked her up in a private prison instead.
Agents detained her when she showed up for final green card appointment—a process that lasted years & cost $16,009.
Family was waiting at her house planning to celebrate over bowls of Pozole.
Judge Immergut isn’t playing around and I suspect will slam the Trump Administration for trying to end-run her order from yesterday blocking Trump’s call-up of Oregon’s National Guard in Portland.

(Here’s the video, ICYMI: www.instagram.com/reel/DPZrNug...)
I’m glad Van Jones apologized for his sick joking about dead kids in Gaza.
But the problem goes deeper: he spread Netanyahu propaganda that the mass killings of civilians in Gaza—including 20K+ kids—is Iranian fake news.
It’s not the students and young people who are fooled. It’s Van Jones.
So here is my question. Let’s assume Miller & Co. are successful, i.e., they deport, jail, kill, all of the “undesirables.” What do they think society is like then? Like, what happens when they realize there’s still crime, drugs, and no one around to do half the jobs, from manual to skilled labor?1/

Via "One First," me on the rather significant early precedent to the contrary:
Trump pulling every lever to expand military occupations of American cities. Gov. Gavin Newsom will take the administration back to court. 👇
05.10.2025 18:10 — 👍 2297 🔁 810 💬 77 📌 22Trump is federalizing the National Guard in Illinois against our will—
An affront to American values and an extreme abuse of our military.
He’s terrorizing citizens in attempt to expand his power and punish opponents.
That’s just not who we are.
It’s authoritarian.
It was a blunt 31-page opinion issued by a judge Trump appointed to the bench in his first term in office declaring that Trump’s effort to federalize Oregon National Guard troops likely “exceeded his statutory authority” and likely violated the Tenth Amendment.
Law Dork on Saturday’s TRO:
ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

On August 27, 2025, Petitioner was arrested at the Carson Car Wash in Carson, California by uniformed Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) officers and unidentified plainclothes federal agents. See Pet. ¶¶ 16, 48; Santiago Decl. ¶ 3. During the arrest, Petitioner sustained severe leg injuries. See Pet. ¶ 48; Santiago Decl. ¶ 5. He was handcuffed and transported by CBP to the emergency room at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center in Carson, California. Id. At the hospital, Petitioner was admitted under a “blackout” procedure for patients in law-enforcement custody and was registered under the pseudonym “Har Maine UNK Thirteen.” Santiago Decl. ¶ 7. Federal agents remained at Petitioner’s bedside during admission, transfer to non-public treatment areas, and throughout his stay, keeping him handcuffed to his hospital bed. Id. ¶ 6. On or about August 27, 2025, CBP transferred custody of Petitioner to ICE. See Pet. ¶ 48. He remains detained at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center under the supervision of ICE, which has contracted with Spectrum Detention Services (“Spectrum”) to provide guards. See Santiago Decl. ¶ 8; Pet. ¶ 48. Since that date, two to four uniformed guards—either Spectrum employees or ICE agents—have been continuously stationed in Petitioner’s hospital room, monitoring him at all times, including while he sleeps, eats, uses the restroom, or receives medical care. See Santiago Decl. ¶¶ 9–10.
ICE has been paying private security for 24/7 guards to watch a guy with no record whose leg they fucked up so badly he has been in a hospital for over a month, and we wonder why people were handing Tom Homan bags of cash.

Hawley, who voted to cut Medicaid in the Big, Ugly Bill and then introduced a bill to reverse some of those cuts, is now saying that the ACA funding needs to be fixed before healthcare premiums for millions more than double.
