The person charged with enforcing the laws is an open lawbreaker, assisted by a team of open lawbreakers, backed by a Congressional majority indifferent to lawbreaking, supported by a Supreme Court that privileges them to break the law.

The person charged with enforcing the laws is himself a law breaker. In such a state, do laws even have any legitimacy?

It's not just social media. Looks like visitors to the US from Europe and other countries that are part of the visa waiver program will have to submit an enormous amount of data about themselves and their families, including DNA, if proposed new rules are accepted

Seems a little wild that DHS would call me out by name and say that this scene is offensive to Christians. I like seperation in my church and state. Moreover, what's offensive to Christians is the dehumanization that DHS and ICE are practicing. That is evil and an offense to God - not my nativity.

This whole book is a hate crime. She's burning a cross on the front lawn of the English language.
There’s a sentence on page 2 that is longer than Bluesky’s character limit.
And the sole knowledge that sentence conveys is “Olivia was born on January 6th.”
