@govpritzker.illinois.gov a bold action would be to gather your state National Guard officers and make sure they understand that you are the commander and that orders from elsewhere are illegal unless they’ve then also approved by you. Federalization has got to be stopped.

Masked kidnappers grabbed another citizen.
His brother, the marine officer, may have a few words for the kidnappers.
If the kidnappers were looking for criminals, they would visit South Central instead of going after people looking for work at Home Depot.
But they don't.

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

No nationwide injunctions on medical abortion pills in the mail, for instance.
No nationwide injunctions on gun control laws.

The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it.
- Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders.
- Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

Hell, I'd argue Illinois should pass its own citizenship law making everyone domiciled in Illinois a citizen of the State of Illinois and prohibiting ICE or anyone else from removing any Illinois citizen from this state.

I’m an Arab and Jewish Attorney. I Quit DOJ When I Saw Who They Were Accusing of Antisemitism.
These actions undermine the safety of Jewish Americans and Arab Americans like myself. They are antithetical to the mission of the Department of Justice.

It’s obvious that the executive branch has embraced full on fascism. I am astounded that so many judges have supported the blatant fascism. The reasoning behind judgment and favor of the fascist tactics are usually based on minutia of the law. What is wrong with these judges? They support fascism?!

@weeknightmsnbc.bsky.social On Katy Tur’s show today they mused over why Trump would enter a war between Israel and Iran? I go back to his comment and intent to have Gaza. Trump has to pander to Netanyahu so that he can get Gaza.

@ezralevin.bsky.social regarding the refusal of MOC to enter a detention facility, if the law allows for the unscheduled visit from a MOC, why can't that MOC go to the local police and ask for assistance in enforcing the law??

@ecmclaughlin.bsky.social Regarding migrant deportation, Since courts have little control over tRump, Is it possible for a judge to order that anyone participating in sending people out of the country to foreign lands will suffer consequences? Thinking airline pilots and CEOs

Anyone familiar with Mao's Cultural Revolution in the 1960's? Similar to what the maga idiots are doing with the purge of history, science and arts and anything not "traditional" American (meaning white male dominance) The result in China was devastating hardship.

I continue to be disgusted with people on cable news who continue to talk about the "advantage" the Dems have for the 2028 election. Um, if they do not stop him now & courts cannot stop him, how are we going to have a fair election in 2028?

@maddow.msnbc.com Have you compared the tRump destruction of science and the arts to the Cultural Revolution under Mao? I think there are many similarities and I am sure most in the US know nothing about that time and the hardship it brought.

The situation is so dire, so critical, that it seems only a superhero flying in to save the day can be the savior of the US and likely the world.
