“I’m not surprised this happened,” Ilhan Omar attacker Anthony Kazmierczak’s brother said. “Not at all. Unfortunately, he and my mother are both right-wing extremists.”

"In my mind, he’s a piece of s**t," he added.

Again, I'll bang the lonely 🥁 that, whatever faults you have with Joe Biden as a person or his policy positions on ____, Actual Joe Biden was FAR & AWAY the most progressive president of your & my lifetime, with the slimmest Congressional majorities ever, & it wasn't close:

The media has always been tougher on right-wing Democrats like Biden just because of party affiliation. The media protects every single Republican while demonizing liberals who are just as harmful as Republicans. We can't get anything meaningful as a working class.

Against smoke and rubber bullets
By the dawn’s early light
Citizens stood for justice
Their voices ringing through the night
And there were bloody footprints
Where mercy should have stood
And two dead left to die on snow-filled streets
Alex Pretti and Renee Good

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. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Not even United States Representatives are safe from the racist hate and violence Donald Trump inspires.

Voters of Tomorrow strongly condemns the vile attacks on @maxwellfrost.bsky.social & @ilhanmn.bsky.social. We’re grateful for their continuous bravery and advocacy and that neither were harmed.

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case that could determine whether immigration officers can treat people as deportable based on criminal charges alone, before any conviction. The case is Bondi v. Lau, and the stakes for due process are enormous. 🧵

Minneapolis is a test by this corrupt Administration of how much illegality the American people will tolerate, how willing we will be to abide authoritarianism, and how easily ordinary people will allow an arm of the government to be weaponized against us...

"Recent events have brought Trump’s governing style into sharper focus. Fascist best describes it, and reluctance to use the term has now become perverse."

Yes, It’s Fascism
Until recently, I thought it a term best avoided. But now, the resemblances are too many and too strong to deny.

As an attorney, I know Trump has no ability to cancel our elections.

But as someone who is a Trump biographer and presidential historian, I simultaneously am well aware that he has the will, the capacity, the resources, and the troops to make free and fair elections impossible.

Speaking of the Civil War, there are active legal clashes over blue states’ rights to protect abortion providers and red states seeking to prosecute them. Conservative plaintiffs are also suing said doctors for wrongful death—modern-day bounty hunters

Strongly recommend The War Before the War by Delbanco. Intense clashes between local and federal authorities over states’ rights to protect fugitive slaves and drive out bounty hunters helped set the stage for 1861.

You no longer have civil and Constitutionally protected rights, because ICE can shoot you with impunity, ICE can arrest you without a warrant, ICE can shoot you for protesting. What do you think will happen when you try to vote? #Accountability @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social

The corrupt ICE lover Henry Cuellar has to be removed from Homeland Security appropriations. He broke with Democrats to vote for the ICE funding bill last week.

If you have a Democratic member of Congress - tell them this is non-negotiable.

This is why I appreciate @atrupar.com so freaking much. An absolute national treasure.
I guess it’s good for the networks to have all the Trump apparatchiks on to lie, so we can see how despicable they are. I admire the anchors who ask them tough questions. I couldn’t be in the same room as them. And if I were on a panel afterwards, all I would say is: “They lie. They lie. They lie.”

Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration.

Congress can:
- Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage)
- Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes
- Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same
- Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction

It can be done.
