Leavitt’s citizenship comments clash with SCOTUS
Karoline Leavitt: “You’re either a U.S. citizen or not — You can’t be a U.S. citizen & a citizen of another country.”
The Supreme Court: It ruled in 1967 that the government can’t strip U.S. citizenship unless a person voluntarily relinquishes it.

The one year anniversary of Yoon's failed martial law takeover just passed and lots of untold stories came out proving that THE ONLY REASON KOREA IS STILL A FREE COUNTRY IS BECAUSE PEOPLE DISOBEYED ILLEGAL ORDERS.
The coup was over in hours because people said no.

The new Pentagon press corps is laser focused on serving the American people by working their sources to bring you the most impactful stories because, as Jefferson said, “a well-informed citizenry is the best defense against tyranny.”

Really great coverage from @wired.com about our week of action against online ID verification and how these bills are setting a dangerous precedent by making the internet more exploitative rather than safer.

The Age-Gated Internet Is Sweeping the US. Activists Are Fighting Back
Half of the country now requires age verification to watch porn or access “harmful” content. Digital rights advocates are pushing back against legislation they say will make the internet less safe.

They’re going to force everyone to starve so they can “root out fraud” that doesn’t exist.
ICE can’t meet their quotas and this is a blatant attempt to identify immigrants and their family members for possible kidnapping & detention.
No one deserves to starve.

Mercedes Wells was kicked out of an ER in active labour.
She gave birth roadside in her husband’s truck.
Her water had broken before they kicked her out.
The nurse told her “I have to follow the rules. Once the doctor discharges you, you must leave”.

They’ve already come for abortion and now they’re coming for birth control.
