Religion is absurd. What, a myth about Jews in ancient Egypt smearing blood on their doors to keep their ghost dad from killing their babies as it goes around murdering other children led to rituals where Bernie shouldn’t be at Coachella? This is ranting at subway commuters level crazy.

Justice Sotomayor with a bone-chilling dissent today: “The implication of the govt’s position is noncitizens AND US citizens could be taken off streets, forced onto planes, confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress…This Nation's laws is designed to prevent, not en-able, their rise.

It’s all about psychology. Abnormal psychology.
Read the DSM-5’s chapters on Cluster B personality disorders.
And then it all becomes clear.

Happy Friday. While most Americans wake up and are heading to work, Donald Trump is vacationing at his golf course today after crashing the stock market and skipping the dignified transfer of four fallen soldiers.
Just another day under MAGA leadership.

I just re-read the full Declaration of Independence. It's the most illuminating and depressing thing I've read in a while. Highly recommend folks give it a read.
Many — if not most — of the complaints levied against King George are indistinguishable from those brought against President Trump today.

Excellent points.
I do not understand how the United States can hold the World Cup at this point.
Marco Rubio just made the argument, bold faced, not a mistake an intentional statement, that at any time the US can revoke your visa and then you are instantly here illegally and they can arrest you, deport you, torture you, all without any due process.
That means the United States is simply unsafe

No. It’s C.B. King, a civil rights LAWYER who was clubbed over the head by a local sheriff when King arrived at jail to check on his client - a white civil rights protester.He continued his work & influenced a generation.

People, this is a very important point!
EO’s are NOT legal proclamations of Law. They are Presidential memos to formally instruct the Branch of priorities and projects.
We do not have to obey in advance.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.
