The fact of the matter is that without due process the only thing that separates any of us from being a "criminal" is if the state says we are.
If the state does not have to give criminals due process, they do not have to give YOU due process.
All they have to do is call you a criminal.

Nancy Pelosi hasn't been a leader of the progressive wing of the party for a long time, but there is no establishment Democrat I have more respect for. The fact that the big tent party always felt more impactful under her leadership than the GOP has under any number of their own Speakers says a lot.
BREAKING: Nancy Pelosi won't seek reelection, ending her storied career in the U.S. House.

Powerful Democratic former speaker Nancy Pelosi won’t seek reelection to the U.S. House. Pelosi’s announcement Thursday brings to a close her storied career as not only the first woman in the speaker’s office but arguably the most powerful in American politics.

George was just trying to get to work.
ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.
This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

Utah was the first state to allow open carry on campus. A would-be assailant could walk right onto campus armed as they please and nobody could’ve done a thing about it.
In 2014, Anita Sarkeesian canceled an event at Utah State after a credible assassination threat because the school’s response was that Utah allows guns on college campuses.
People have warned about this kind of violence for years. But they weren’t the people the powers at be wanted to protect.

Per ProPublica, RFK Jr and Russell Vought have gone out of their way to demonize the CDC and federal workforce.
Vought, on video: “We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected.” Also, he expressed his desire that they be “increasingly viewed as the villains.”
Again, stochastic terrorism.

1. This is something I've been saying for 25 years, but it's hard to get many people to listen. What counts is not the new energy sources you add, but the old ones you retire. Unfortunately it's politically easier to build renewables than to shutter fossil fuels.🧵

Luckily releasing these clips unquivocally ended any argument that Epstein was murdered. Glad we are done here.
NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”
