He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

Mike Johnson’s Bible apparently has Jesus encouraging lying as often as possible as the pathway to heaven. Must be a Trump Bible.

When the Supreme Court recently allowed immigration agents to consider race during sweeps, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that citizens shouldn’t be concerned because agents will “promptly let the individual go.”

For these Americans, that wasn’t true: https://propub.li/47aawMD

50+: Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130: Agents also can arrest U.S. citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.

~20: Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

This is good to see.

"The review of mifepristone marks the second time in less than a week that the Trump administration has marshaled false medical claims and junk science in an effort to constrain the freedoms of pregnant women and curtail their access to relief," writes Guardian US columnist Moira Donegan.

Charlie Kirk's assassination is heinous and frightening and warrants widespread condemnation.

But it should not protect him or others who engage in such politics of extremism from critical review.

No, Charlie Kirk was not practicing politics the right way

His assassination deserves full condemnation; his full impact should not be sidestepped.
