Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.

The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other states—and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into another—is extremely dangerous.

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

Lots of 💩 posting lately.

That looks like breaking and entering. I'm pretty sure castle laws apply here. Not advocating for violence but this is the thing the gun nuts would go crazy over in their hypotheticals.

Don't shaft your own narrative by circulating images that can easily be debunked.

Let's not make things worse by posting false narratives. This still is being circulated as an ice agent zip tying a toddler but a quick search online finds this YouTube short from several months ago.

A blurry still of a toddler being handcuffed. Turns out to be his dad chasing him down and the toddler happily plays along with the arrest.

Might be they are being paid to say what their corporate overlords want them to say. Much like the script given to call centers...
Corporate America sucks.

Might be we need to stop running the country like a business and getting back to what matters most.

I believe it has more to do with garnering support for the followers who aren't hard liner fascists and who are just riding along with this regime due to being typically racist but also those people don't enjoying baby f*ckers either.

It's been a real issue with media running interference.

I miss having a president who can string words together and have them not only form a complete sentence but also a fully formed thought.
