I love how these Republicans are once again promoting the SAVE Act. A bill that’s completely unconstitutional. It makes it harder for women and minorities to vote. But, furthermore, this will never pass. The Senate doesn’t have the votes.

Our constitution gives too much power to the president, and it makes it too difficult to remove a rogue president.

I haven't heard one single Democrat candidate propose how they'd amend the Constitution to prevent the current situation from ever happening again. Not one.

I've heard from people in other cities "I'd like to see them try that in __!"

No. No, you wouldn't.

We have guns pointed in our faces in MN. I think you'd change your tune if this was happening to you, your family & your neighbors.

Nobody knows EXACTLY how to do this. This is NEW to all of US.

The president has openly called for the Republican Party to "take over" elections. Is that sufficiently unconstitutional yet, or are we still "overreacting"?

WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.
Q: You're a constitutional lawyer. Can you detail the 4th Amendment protections someone has if ICE approaches their home w/an administrative warrant?

MIKE JOHNSON: When ICE goes to execute a warrant, it's issued by an immigration judge, & that is a sufficient legal authority to go apprehend someone

Three rules in FBI firearm training:

1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot

Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

I think it's very clear at this point that this regime is going to try to overturn the results of the Midterm elections at this point. That does not mean they will be successful but we absolutely need to be prepared for that effort at this point.

Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."

This, along with the seizure of ballots and voting data, is another massive red flag for Americans: This is the kind of thing authoritarians say and do when they are preparing to rig the vote.

They are preparing to steal your vote, and you have to take action now to stop them.

If there’s one thing I will NOT tolerate, it’s randos replying that people in “red states” or “red districts” get what they deserve, what they “voted for” from this administration

No one, not one person, deserves the kind of useless destruction, fear and violence from this authoritarian regime

AOC on ICE: It’s our task to figure out how to claw back what has essentially supercharged this agency into becoming a relentless domestic paramilitary that is also a blank check to Palantir to create facial-recognition scans on U.S. citizens.

making tulsi gabbard DNI is itself a watergate level scandal
Exclusive: A U.S. official has alleged wrongdoing by U.S. spy chief Tulsi Gabbard in a complaint that is so highly classified it has sparked months of wrangling over how to share it with Congress, according to people familiar with the matter.
Classified Whistleblower Complaint About Tulsi Gabbard Stalls Within Her Agency
Congress hasn’t seen the complaint, which was filed eight months ago with the U.S. intelligence community watchdog’s office.

When Democrats win Congress they should pass a law prohibiting a President or any elected official from suing people performing their official duties. That means Trump can't sue media for reporting his crimes or releasing his tax returns. If immunity is good for the orange POS...
