“On Jan. 6, when Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell asked — BEGGED — Trump to send the National Guard, he wouldn’t do it. When our government was TRULY under attack — the first attack on our gov’t from within since the Civil War — he wouldn’t do it.”

What happened last night and today was manufactured propaganda by the Trump admin to justify using the military against Americans. Let us be clear: the military should never police civilians without a request from the state. So much for the so-called party of states’ rights and law and order.

1st, I don’t think one can do this outside of a polling station. This should be considered voter intimidation
2nd, imagine walking around like this thinking you’re cool by flying a hate flag? That's a special kind of idiotic and despicable behaviour that has no place in our country

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped
I was stuck in a freezing cell without explanation despite eventually having lawyers and media attention. Yet, compared with others, I was lucky

We are assuming this was a planetary scientist traveling to the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference
Le Monde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to US after a search of his phone & computer revealed messages critical of Trump's science cuts, "which [says CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism".

This is disgraceful and un-American. The Trump administration defended its removal of articles highlighting the achievements of minority service members, including Navajo code talkers, Marines at Iwo Jima, and famed Black baseball player Jackie Robinson.

This is a coup! U.S. Institute for Peace called the DC police on the Musk team members in an effort to stop them from trespassing because the institute has control of its own building and the land it sits on. But instead, the DC police allowed them to enter and kicked out the institute’s officials.
