I recently heard historian Robert Kagan say: “What's at risk right now is literally our democracy in the sense that I don't think Trump is going to allow free and fair elections in 2026.”
My job is to fight in court to prove him wrong even while I fear he may be right.

No. We don’t need to “modify ICE training.” We need to close DHS. Dismantle it. It’s an outdated expensive bureaucracy that’s been usurped by violent white supremacists. Shut it down.

I just want people to know that there is no active insurrection, no regular protests, no rioting or whatever. The only time people are in the streets is when masked armed ICE thugs descend on one of our neighbors to disappear them as part of a federal government-led ethnic cleansing campaign.

Trump justified his illegal war in Venezuela by saying that Venezuela was not producing enough oil.
Venezuela was not producing enough oil because of sanctions and blockades Trump orchestrated.

I make a motion that we compare the criminal backgrounds of ICE agents, to the criminal backgrounds of the people they are detaining… pretty sure that ICE agents have a higher percentage of violent crimes in their backgrounds…
