Wake up people, trump must be removed from office. A president calling for Gov Pritzker and others political opponents to be jailed should frighten everyone regardless of party. That is fascism.

The @nytimes.com is ignoring the invasion of our cities by the trump gestapo and military. The daily headlines should be “Illegal Use of Military and ICE today” and report on trump’s Nazi book. This is how democracy dies when fascism is ignored. Stop sanewashing trump #DV1 #ProudBlue

The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal. That means her conviction and 20-year criminal sentence remain in place.

OMG, SCOTUS did the right thing. What's next, upholding the Constitution?

Adam Kinzinger is 100% right.Stephen Miller is hungry for war against the American people but has zero concept or concern for what the human toll of war will be. Nor does he care. ICE will wilt like little scared babies when we the people arm ourselves and fight back against their tyranny #ProudBlue

I'm so glad Bessie's story survived. She must have had nerves of steel. Not for her motorcycle stunts, although great, but for driving across America alone as a black woman.

We may need a new Green Book as the pall of discrimination as government policy descends again across America.

This is deranged and horrifying. We never had this happen in our country before- the insurrection continues - far more dangerous and deadly. Miller and the regime of #47 are the enemy within.

Over the weekend, Trump's deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller repeatedly attacked judges, calling them part of an "organized terrorist attack" on the US government....

On Saturday, the home of a judge who ruled against Trump, went up in flames

🎈Today is my birthday, and I'd like all of you to give me the same gift: keep fighting for our democracy. Send emails and make phone calls to our reps at all levels of government, protest, talk to others. Don't let Convicted Felon Donald Trump destroy our country.

Cake would also be nice. 🎂 😊

@govpritzker.illinois.gov: "Let's call this what it is...Trump's Invasion."

#47's invasion of Democratic/Blue cities is instigating violence.

Worse than the insurrection on J/6 - this is a continuation of that horrible day.

The Democratic governors and mayors should also be on the streets confronting ICE, demanding to see judge signed arrest warrants for particular people. Local police and their state's National Guard should stand with their governors and mayors in a peaceful standoff with ICE.
