Great piece by my Cato colleague. “Since July, immigration agents have shot at least six people behind the wheel of a vehicle. The same playbook is used each time: the agent says they “feared for their life” as a vehicle was “weaponized” against them. Juries should decide, but we tie their hands.
Opinion | Renee Good wasn’t the first person shot in her car by ICE. The justification followed a familiar script.
Mike Fox: The officer who shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis might never have to defend his actions before a judge or jury.

Trump is planning a military parade in DC on June 14, but the biggest story of that day will be the actions we take everywhere else. I'm rallying on No Kings Day to reject strongman politics and corruption. app.sosha.ai/s/roG2hYEN

There is no "center" between decency and indecency, between democracy and authoritarianism, between a government of billionaires and a government of the people.
If Democrats move to "the center", they will pave the way for the next Trump.

The Failures of “Centrism”
By moving to the so-called “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening inequality, economic insecurity, and the unchecked political power of corporations and the rich. Watch.

The inverted flag isn’t disrespect — it’s a distress signal from naval traditions, used to show grave danger to life or property.
With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger.
That’s why I’m posting it today.
