Been on here for a while without a formal introduction. I’m passionate healthcare worker, sitting in the gap between clinical and technical (more technical at this point), with an undying dream of going back to medical school. Love to talk #healthcare, #pokitics, #religion, #hiking, #crossfit & more
Seriously? We can’t have subsidies for health care for millions who can’t afford it, but we can pay people who are tear gassing and shooting peaceful protestors? See why our healthcare is screwed?

Needs to be shared to understand the full impact of these procedures.
Hard video to watch, but about as close as you can get to conclusively disproving the Trump admin's claims that she deliberately attempted to run down the officer. She even talks nicely with him moments before!
Note also that the officer is focused more on filming her than on anything else.

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.
They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.
Stop the lies.

The fact that ICE officers prevented a doctor from rendering aid after fatally shooting an innocent woman is sick beyond measure.
As we press for accountability, it is important that all of us spread the facts of this brutal and unjustified killing far and wide.

Unacceptable. Have his mother call in again so he can stammer. This is someone who is acting less human: one who calls in someone else’s characteristics to try and dehumanize them and belittle their death.
Jesse Watters highlights that Renee Nicole Good, the woman killed by ICE, had "pronouns in her bio" and "leaves behind a lesbian partner and a child from a previous marriage"

Captain Mark Kelly earned his rank.
Now his decades of service are being attacked by a drunk and a draft dodger.
All because he reminded our military to stay true to their oath, his right as both a veteran and an American.

Are you kidding? Surely this is evidence enough for impeachment. Supreme Court… where you at? (Yes I know they don’t impeach but they can defend the Constitution).
Trump: Don’t ask me who is in charge because I’ll give you an answer and it will be very controversial.
Reporter: What does that mean?
Trump: We’re in charge.

Wow. Genuinely shocked, and a hugely consequential decision.
Importantly, this is a case where @martylederman.bsky.social's amicus brief appears to have made a MAJOR impact. Before he wrote it, courts were sidestepping the "regular forces" issue entirely. And that's what the Trump admin lost on.

NEW: By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court blocks Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Chicago to assist immigration agents. A majority holds that he likely lacks authority to do so. Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
![The Government asked this Court to stay the District Court's order. After the response and reply were filed, JUSTICE BARRETT referred the application to the Court. We directed the parties to file supplemental letter briefs on an issue that the District Court had addressed but the parties' initial briefs had not: the meaning of the term "regular forces" in §12406(3). In its supplemental brief, the Government argues that the term refers to civilian law enforcement officers, such as those employed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement or the Federal Protective Service.
Respondents, echoing the District Court, maintain that the term refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary.
We conclude that the term "regular forces" in §12406(3) likely refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary. This interpretation means that to call the Guard into active federal service under §12406(3), the President must be "unable" with the regular military "to execute the laws of the United States." Because the statute requires an assessment of the military's ability to execute the laws, it likely applies only where the military could legally execute the laws. Such circumstances are exceptional: Under the Posse Comitatus Act, the military is prohibited from "execut[ing] the laws" "except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress."
18 U. S. C. §1385. So before the President can federalize the Guard under §12406(3), he likely must have statutory or constitutional authority to execute the laws with the regular military and must be "unable" with those forces to perform that function.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6h7b2i6ttw3l4t7pvbvxdith/bafkreiftbhzwvn3vgwhqsi7k2paizvdw4t26ailljvovso3chqupnmj364@jpeg)

That doesn’t sound right… someone tell this lawyer the first amendment of the Bill of Rights starts with the words:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion…”
