What makes me nuts: people think they must deliver an opinion on Mark Bray's scholarship when they defend his right to do it. Fuck you. I don't care about your opinion about his scholarship. The only thing that matters is that he is free to do it without being killed or defamed as a terrorist

Trump's explanation for the National Guard being deployed is to protect ICE because he feels that the federal agents are being threatened.

"failing to protect Ice Officers!"

Stephen Miller accidently says the quiet part out loud and says trump has plenary power meaning Trump has absolute power. Then stops talking because he knows he messed up. @kendallyb.bsky.social shows us CNN edited out the mistake in future broadcasts.

DIVERSION was the PLAN

Pam Bondi brought “attack notes” to the hearing Tuesday.

What gives ICE snipers on a roof the right to shoot innocent unarmed protesters exercising their legal rights? This is assault. "Pepper ball" bullets can do serious damage. The police should be arresting these perps. Absolutely no justification for this. None.
