Texas officials would rather witch hunt and hang the understaffed NWS officials and Park Rangers for “failing” rather than point their finger at where it’s due: at TRUMP and DOGE, who is directly responsible for this MESS.
Smart Texans will see through this, red OR blue.

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process.
This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

Just a reminder that U.S. military personnel, whether in the National Guards or the Marines, are not trained for law enforcement.
They are trained to kill, they are remarkably effective at it, and that is why there are such strict legal prohibitions on deploying military inside the United States.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.
The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight
Justice Riggs is right. We should not have to fight for democracy. But the reality is that we must.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States.
That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.
