The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Trump’s Immigration Enforcement: Free The Criminals, Jail The Innocent
The Trump administration's immigration enforcement has revealed itself to be not just cruel, but fundamentally backwards: They're literally freeing dangerous criminals while manufacturing cases against innocent people. And they're doing it all to cover up their own massive legal fuckups. Take the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. We covered this last week when Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes ordered his release, noting that the Justice Department appeared to have leaned on actual criminals to fabricate evidence against him.

One reason they’re attacking Mamdani is because he’s so damn concise & articulate in presenting policies people want that have already worked and are financially sound.

What a fucking bigoted, lying disgrace @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social has turned out to be. Guess fighting against sexual assaulters wasn’t as important as she claimed.

Anyone who thinks this is going to only be used for “undocumented” migrants is delusional. Miller & Bannon et al. see all non-whites as illegitimate and if they can get rid of as many of them as possible they will too. I hope these people, the 6 SCOTUS members included, never know peace again!
NEW: The Supreme Court's conservatives halt a preliminary injunction that had restricted the Trump administration's ability to rapidly deport migrants to "third countries" where they have never lived and where allegedly face torture. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

At some point, Republicans are going to learn what the Department of Energy does, right?

Like... they have to learn at some point that it runs nuclear reactors and doesn't operate oil fields or whatever.

It's an illegal use of active-duty troops to enforce domestic policy, it's been a key foundation of our system of laws for 150 years, indeed a blatant disregard for the law, & that's how every headline should describe it.

ICE arrested former Afghan Nat'l Army soldier—our ally against Taliban—at his home in TX.
He entered legally and atty says he has no criminal record. Was applying for asylum. Appears to be casualty of Trump decision de-documenting legal Afghan immigrants

Former Afghan soldier arrested at Houston-area home by ICE, stripped of asylum protections, attorney says | Houston Public Media
The soldier is one of at least 20,000 Afghans seeking asylum nationwide, having fled Afghanistan after aiding the U.S. military during the two-decades-long war there.

Yesterday #ElonMusk admitted he bought the Presidential Election for a pedophile.

#Trump in turn showed he believes he can solely direct appropriations, which is totally unconstitutional.

Not a peep from the @Democratsorg leadership. Weak.
