#BirthrightCitizenship was enshrined in the U.S. Constitution through the #14thAmendment 125 years ago. Birthright Citizenship is in the Constitution. Period. Full STOP! ✋🏼

Will the stacked, corrupt #SCOTUS rewrite the Constitution, declaring millions of U.S. Citizens illegal!?

When masked secret police are crashing into cars & violently pulling women out & beating them to a pulp with no warrant, answering to no one, this isn't democracy!

We have 1 chance to retake power—Prop 50!

And here’s the result of my battle with the “rovi”, can also be translated as “brambles”!

A small yard full of wild blackberry vines and other brambles ripped from the forest above. A pair of work gloves sits on a white plastic bag, awaiting to receive the cut up pieces so it’s all easier to haul away to the “piattaforma ecologica”!

As I go after the “rovi” (wild blackberry vines) in the forest out behind our little tower in the North, and the mosquitoes go after me, this fine piece of Americana came across my radio!

This is true! While the “lawyers” he has installed in the DOJ are laughable, every other part of the DOJ, from the FBI to smaller agencies could get ugly in their weaponization. Don’t get me started on what they’ve done with DHS, like you say, lightning fast!

Fortunately, and for now, these are absurd and clearly vindictive cases that will either never make it to trial or will be lost. But how long until not only the Justice Department but also the lower courts are packed with tRvmp lackeys!? 🧐

Noah Bookbinder @noahbookbinder.bsky.social · 1d

We've now had the same thing happen twice in the past few weeks. With New York Attorney General James, as with former FBI Director Comey, Donald Trump publicly demanded prosecution of a perceived enemy and made it happen over the objections of career prosecutors, which is beyond dangerous. 🧵

In both cases, career prosecutors and even a Trump appointee recommended against prosecuting because of insufficient evidence. But Trump forced out his own appointee who wasn't willing to prosecute and brought in a loyalist who was. That loyalist has now indicted both of these perceived opponents.

This is a president deciding who he doesn't like and wants prosecuted, even when the facts and law don't support prosecuting, and then making it happen. That becomes a way for him to take out any opposition, which is something that happens in authoritarian countries, not democracies.

Among many others at the CDC, the Trump regime laid off the staff of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

“The publication’s storied history includes a June 1981 report that five previously healthy gay men were treated for an unusual pneumonia — the first hint of the AIDS epidemic.”

Ghana’s foreign minister just posted this to X:

“The Ghanaian Government is pleased to note that our refusal to accept Abrego Garcia has been duly acknowledged and complied with by the US Department of Homeland Security.”

The Ghanaian Government is pleased to note that our refusal to accept Abrego Garcia has been duly acknowledged and complied with by the US
Department of Homeland Security.
We have also followed with satisfaction that DHS has today taken the appropriate steps to inform Garcia's lawyers and amend court submissions to reflect the fact that Ghana cannot be an option for Garcia's deportation.
The Mahama Administration will continue to be transparent and truthful to Ghanaians at all times.
