An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house."
The threat was greeted with extreme concern by civil liberties and digital privacy groups. It suggests the LAPD could be using facial recognition to identify and retaliate against protesters.

Trump is short-selling America—deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them.
Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm.
Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

After teaching constitutional law for more than a decade, it's sobering to confront the reality of a federal judiciary caving so quickly on protecting core constitutional norms and principles.
We are far beyond Youngstown & Korematsu, and now facing a moment of extreme peril and uncertainty.

Peter Navarro made up Ron Vara in his book - the expert economist who thinks tariffs are good.
That’s why Trump is doing tariffs.
Because of a fake economist that Navarro made up.
Ron Vara is an anagram of his name Navarro.

That is something that should happen, but if it was Orange Shitstain only I’d be okay with that too. It would be a good start.
Full support for any member of Congress, and I mean any member, that mobilizes articles of impeachment on the entire administration immediately. This has gone too far.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie.

An innocent man was sent to an El Salvadorian prison and the Supreme Court just decided not to bring him back. The rot in this country, in our politics & courts is so much deeper than one man. Do not let their lack of humanity corrode your own. The real question is what are we willing to sacrifice?
