At SOTU he said, "The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens"
He both lied and was wrong. The Declaration of Independence says the purpose of government is to secure our unalienable rights.

I oversaw counterterrorism at DHS for two years in the first Trump administration.
Iβve never seen DHS less prepared to defend the U.S. against a terrorist attack.
And Trump took us to war five days ago β with a country that is hellbent on retaliating.
Top two open primaries are better than closed partisan primaries because then a tiny fraction of voters decide the choices for everyone else, disenfranchising independent and minor party voters.
Top two open primaries do have this potential defect, which is why the Alaska top 4 system is better.
These commanders are insane and need to be removed immediately.

If ICE and CBP don't want to be called secret police, then don't wear masks.Β
Β
If they don't want to be accused of kidnapping, then don't drag people out of cars & houses without warrants.
Β
And if they don't want to be accused of being lawless, then start following the law.
Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

Wrong question.
Voting is a right. Why does the GOP want to interfere with the right to vote? They can't answer that question.
They know that it is poor people who typically cannot provide the documents. They know poor people vote for Democrats. That's why they want to interfere with voting rights.
The GOP is pushing their voter suppression bill called the SAVE Act based on the lie that non-citizens are voting in large numbers. Utah knows it is a lie.

Someone should show Ted the Texas gerrymander skew.
Harris won 42.5% of the presidential vote and the new Texas gerrymander will give Ds 20% of the seats.
Why, it's a brazen abuse of power & an insult to democracy!

Interesting. Ds should look carefully at the list of ICE and DHS restrictions in here:

Predicting that this week weβll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since theyβre starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itβs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
Jay Inslee @JayInslee X.com In the midst of ICE horror, the Senate needs to prohibit Trump from using ICE as a voter suppression tool. Senate Dems need to put into the approps bill a prohibition on ICE agents being near polling places. This is a must have. Last chance to do this.
This needs to happen at the very least

Two important points:
1. The rhetoric from the GOP incited this poor dude to violence.
2. @repilhan.bsky.social is demonstrating real courage to hold a town hall. Note that GOP reps are too afraid to do the same.
The killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good were not just tragedies β they were atrocities. And instead of ensuring accountability, senior administration officials have blocked it.

What I said yesterday. Trump will throw ANYONE under the bus. The best time to get out from under Trump is right now.
