NB: When I, a professor of law, profess that an act is unlawful, I am not doing it to inform the lawbreaker, but rather to inform you, the reader.
So the question “what, like you think he cares?” is inapposite. The question is whether *you* care. I think you should, which is why I bother.

The U.S. military is paid by private individuals. They are called taxpayers. Members of the working class. The U.S. military has been paid as our taxes have been paid. The Republican Political Party is WITHOLDING their pay.

… when I was in CCD in the 1960’s, right after Vatican II, I had Polish Nuns in first-second grade who told us frightening stories of the monstrous Nazis desecrating the hosts, vandalizing altar and sacristy. They were so happy to be in America and safe.

Went to a prayer service tonight at St. Mary of the Lake, where they have cardboard cutouts throughout the church representing parishioners afraid to come to Mass because of ICE.

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

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.

Carney announces the release of another $2bn of frozen Russian assets and sanctions on Russia (including shadow fleets). “The support will be unwavering until we get a just peace for Ukrainian people.”

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing.
Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.
Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop.

The active duty soldier who was placed in on an involuntary mental health hold after speaking out about ICE abuses has been released. He was given no treatment nor diagnosis and no reason for the hold.
