Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

ICE tried to send one immigrant to a country he never lived in. Then he lawyered up.

Roman Surovtsev is like many others who were detained at their regularly scheduled ICE check-ins. What makes his case different is that his wife has marshalled a team of lawyers on his behalf.

I met James Doohan at a Star Trek convention once in Vancouver. I told him that I was a fan of his voice over work in the animated series and my favorite character was Arex. He told me that he enjoyed doing all those voices and then performed Arex’s voice at the autograph table for me.

A line that I once read in a comic book and have quoted often.

“Keep one hand on your soul when shaking hands with the devil.”

MJT knows what side her bread is REALLY buttered on and she is positioning herself for when the administration will hopefully fall. Still don’t trust her though.
