The regime is acting this way because there are no consequences so it is clear that consequences—the development of them, the advocacy for them, the imposition on bad behavior—are the answer to our crisis.

Miller’s apparent elevation to shadow president and his seeming intent to declare an end to the constitutional order would, in any other administration, be treated as a executive branch meltdown that was immensely embarrassing for the president and requiring Miller’s immediate removal

This was done at the direction of Pam Bondi. The US government is now dictating what apps you can have on your phone.
The underlying threat here is if Apple didn't comply, they'd slap billions in tariffs on Apple products.

There is a gulf in America. I submit it is the gulf between good and evil, or at least not-evil and evil.
The gulf is not just between people who oppose this and people who are indifferent to it or reluctantly accept it in support of immigration policy or see it as collateral damage.

Repeating: The psychological harm we are inflicting on these children is immense. Even witnessing a parent's arrest can harm children's mental health, but being arrested as a child/teen decreases chances of graduating high school & increases chances of anxiety, depression & unemployment as an adult.
