Writer still unpublished. I'm a freelance flak, because my 2 MA's (African Studies/International Affairs) never led to a career & law school wouldn't have me. I did manage to raise 2 kids.

The administration is quite literally breaking all the laws of God and man to destroy Kilmar Abrego Garcia as an example to everyone.

His freedom is our freedom.

Presumably every member of the contracting team will need high level security clearance, and if there’s any lapse, it will need to be demolished by a subsequent administration to avoid the “multiple embedded bug” problem seen in some embassies in the past. What a clear security risk!

Trump defying a 9-0 Supreme Court decision is the reason I say "if we still have free and fair elections in the United States" when I talk about 2026 midterms.

Bukele doesn't "have something" on Trump.

Trump isn't afraid to fight for Garcia's return. He doesn't want him returned.

Trump and Bukele are engaged in a mutually-beneficial authoritarian partnership designed to profit off the destruction of legal protections. That's it. It isn't that hard.

It is time for the American Bar to stand up and strip the license from any lawyer who is breaking their oath of constitution or otherwise going against their requirements via the bar. Now. Right Now. They should alert law firms they will do this.

Yes, the captain intentionally piloted the ship into a huge iceberg, cracking the vessel like an egg.

But the officers insist we'll all greatly benefit from an invigorating midnight swim through Arctic waters.

Through new policies and aggressive cuts, the Trump administration is taking steps that will encourage more pollution while muffling the science that shows its harms. The very air that Americans breathe will likely become less safe, @zoeschlanger.bsky.social reports:
Breathing in America Is Going to Get More Dangerous
A third of Americans still breathe unhealthy air after decades of improvements—which the Trump administration wants to roll back.

The political lesson of Watergate is this: Never again must America allow an arrogant, elite guard of political adolescents to by-pass the regular party organization and dictate the terms of a national election.

Guess the Republicans didn't learn that lesson

Horrific story, emblematic of larger horrors
WOW. Rep. @jayapal.house.gov says CBP's internal affairs department found that a Chinese woman who had overstayed a visa was arrested by Border Patrol and hung herself in a cell. She wasn't found for two hours—even though the records reported multiple welfare checks (suggesting records falsified?).

Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) tariffs make no economic sense because “[t]hey aren’t designed as economic policy. The tariffs are simply a new, super dangerous political tool.”

Where did you learn your sense of rights Sec. Rubio? Cuba? This tactic is exactly what Fidel Castro would do. Doesn't that give you pause?

it's the least funny thing in the world, as far as I'm concerned. if we are at the point of armed invasion of our neighbors, we are in secret wartime resistance territory, not "orderly elections" territory. does Ukraine get to "vote" in Russian elections? I do not believe so.
