As a matter of law, there is no such thing as "federal immunity." Trump has broad immunity, but public employees enjoy only qualified immunity that does not extend if a "reasonable person" would understand their actions to be illegal. Stephen Miller is not a reasonable person.

Stephen Miller on Fox threatens to arrest JB Pritzker for "seditious conspiracy" and says, "to all ICE officers: you have federal immunity in the conduct of your duties. And anybody who lays a hand on you or tries to stop or obstruct you is committing a felony."

As a reminder, when Biden announced student loan forgiveness—based upon a statute passed by Congress which explicitly said the President could do exactly that—Douthat called it "semi-Caesarist" because it was done "without consulting Congress."

Hi I just discovered you today!
Important but horrifying stories that must be told! 😢
RIP Claude, you didn't deserve that 💔

Where do you find these untold stories? Do you go through old newspapers and such?

This is such a great callout…

Does your Christian church have a plan to help the community when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November?

If not, you’re at the wrong church.

Angers me that the story from the WH is that the Binance CEO who was pardoned was because Biden was going after Crypto. In truth he was found guilty of using his platform to fund Hamas Military. So funding terrorists. But that’s not what the WH is saying. I wonder if he is the anonymous 130m donor

The Trump Administration has been desperately shopping for faraway countries where they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia — all to deny him his constitutional rights here in America.

We cannot stand for it. He must be allowed to defend himself in court. My full statement:

Billions are available for a new ballroom, ICE, and bailouts. But, when it comes to Americans trying to make ends meet? Trump and the GOP are happy to let them starve.
