6 years ago, a federal ban on gender-affirming care for young people was absent from the national Dem agenda, seemed unlikely to almost everyone who isn’t trans. 6 years ago, Marjorie Taylor Greene was a QAnon crank with a crossfit gym. Yesterday her ban passed out of the House with three Dem votes.

President Biden has been awarded Germany's highest honor, the Grand Cross of the Order of Merit at a ceremony in Berlin. And they called him dear Joe. Americans were shocked when I told some a few years ago he is loved worldwide. The Irish 🇮🇪 adore him as well. Congratulations Joe Biden!

The unifying aim of all Trump pronouncements and actions is to trash the constitution and impose a white supremacist militarized autocracy by EO and truth social decree - the latest attack on naturalization and birthright citizenship is an ugly new escalation of that barbaric aim.

Terrible this is happening; great that we have a prominent governor telling us about it in real time.
This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

"The scariest part of Trump’s presidency is the rapid creation of a mini police state, with the administration regularly deploying National Guard troops or a surge of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents or both in major cities, usually against the will of local officials."
With Portland, Trump’s Police State Is Getting Bigger and More Radical
