Not quite a Golden Girl, but a Silver Belle. Looking at life through rose colored liberal reading glasses, focusing on joy as much as possible for awhile. We have done what we could. Winter is coming.

I keep seeing posts stating that ICE cannot enter your home or a private business without a judicial warrant. While that is legally correct, in reality ICE routinely violates the law by forcing their way in, often by smashing down doors, before violently assaulting people.

Trumpism is fascism.

AOC just said it plainly:

“Elon Musk isn’t a scientist. He’s a billionaire con man with a checkbook.”

Sixteen years after Citizens United, billionaires still drown out voters with dark money. Wages stagnate. Prices rise. Democracy bends toward whoever can pay the most. We don’t fix this by waiting—we fix it by ending it.

Shut ICE down, remove the leadership, break DHS apart, and investigate their crimes.

Americans are realizing that unfettered federal power to detain and arrest is a very dangerous thing. I learned that lesson as a child when they put us into internment camps just for looking like the enemy. Don’t go further down this road.

This is not a rational person. And this is deeply disturbing coming from an American President. NATO is not our enemy—they are unequivocally our closest friends and allies.

At this point, how can you not call into question the mental fitness of this President?

ICE is a secret police force. No warrants. No courts. No lawyers. And no appeals. People vanish in the night, not because they broke the law, but because the law no longer means anything. The knock on the door is the sentence.

The Speaker of the House and every other GOP member who supports this are complicit.

The GOP is a criminal organization, protecting pedophiles…

I see bullies and thugs masquerading as Federal officers and committing violence against young women. 👇
Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows

The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

Why Federal Judge Might Swear in Member of Congress

Judge might step in if there is an unexpected or unusual situation, such as a delay in the formal swearing-in ceremony or refusal by Speaker to administer oath

Speaker Johnson has yet to swear in newly elected Democrat, because of Epstein Files

A mass shooting in Alabama, but no, send troops to Portland. A democratic judge and senator's house gets burned down, but no, it's the left that's violent. Sickening.
