As Trump and ICE unleash terror on Chicago, due process is nowhere to be found.

For the record, he has a JD, was a constitutional lawyer for the ADF (rightwing group behind 303 Creative, the Colorado gay cake case, and current conversion therapy one), and was even dean of a law school that never opened (shady).

But also? Claims to have no idea how laws or constitutions work.

It’s all Robert O’Neill.

The wannabe Bin Laden killer.

The same people who insisted devout Catholic Joe Biden was leading a “war on Christianity” are now cheering Trump on as his armed goons assault clergymen.

the world of republican congressional leadership, just constantly unaware of anything in the world

Actually, Mike, if you're a young, pregnant American citizen woman who shows up in an ER in TEXAS or some other GOP-run states, THEY WON'T TREAT YOU AT ALL.

They'll wait until you're dying of sepsis. Then, when you're brain dead, they'll hook you up to tubes and treat your corpse as an incubator.

The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

“Abbott bussed migrants to Chicago in 2022, now he’s mad they’re doing well and and sent the Guard to bring them back”

Or David freaking Bowie

Not the best, but most interesting for me.

Action mode video can see color sweeps on my projector.

I absolutely adore that TrumpMiller called in the feds so Portland called for more inflatable creatures.

I hope there's a whole puffy menagerie by this weekend!

lmao, kristi noem wanted a black bloc fight and got an inflatable rave instead. fuck you DHS, rip city forever.

President Sundowner gets angry at anyone who stands up to him.

Bridging my current life in Chicago and my past life in D.C., I argue today at @newrepublic.com that Democrats should ~never~ vote to fund this government. Make John Thune blow up Senate rules and Republicans wholly own the U.S. extra-military military doing war crimes against us, funded by us.

Who knew the Midwest started in NY….

The Midwest starts in western NY?

🥴

Holy crap. Trump will make the FCC crucify Jimmy Kimmel for this.

They didn’t the first time, they won’t the second time.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

You sure it isn’t the score?

Elephantiasis?

Silovs only the second Pens' G to record a shutout on opening night. Fleury did it twice:

10/5/06 v Phil (4-0, 40 saves)
10/3/13 v NJ (3-0, 27 saves)
