After delivering his opinion in the case, Young then ends by inviting the anonymous sender to stop by the courthouse: “It is here, and in courthouses just like this one, both state and federal, spread throughout our land that our Constitution is most vibrantly alive…”

BREAKING: Judge William Young, a Reagan appointee, delivers the most scathing legal rebuke of the Trump era, ruling that Trump and his cabinet illegally targeted pro-Palestinian students for deportation to "strike fear" into First Amendment protesters. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

To explain: At the start of his opinion, Judge Young includes an anonymous note received by his chambers, which reads “Trump has pardons and tanks..what do you have?” Responding to the note, Young says we have our “magnificent Constitution” and “here’s how that works out in a specific case —“

ICE boats trawling the Chicago River. This is the DUMBEST thing I've seen in my entire life. No exaggeration. What's next? Humvees loaded with armed, masked agents patrolling Disney's Main Street U.S.A.? #Chicago

Suburban police standing up to Fed cops is a development I did not see coming, definitely reflects how DEEPLY unpopular the ICE aggression is/has become. Attn: all “kitchen table issue” Dems, bc this sure seems like something ppl are talking about at the dinner table.

Whose side are you on? The masked secret police or the immigrant family? There are no neutrals here. You’ll either be for freedom or a thug for Homan.

one way you could describe lincoln's approach is of never getting ahead of the public on its attitudes, but holding an immovable set of principles on where the country ought to be and where he hopes to lead it

“They’re, they’re animals anyway. That’s what I would tell my kids all the time,” said the ICE agent, according to body cam footage. spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-...

The emperor has no clothes and he is spreading hatred, ignorance, and corruption all around. We have to convert despair into a fighting spirit! Save the American republic!

this is one of the problem with ideologies which rationalize the routine use of violence: you think you are attracting where violence is the means and the ideology is the ends. you are actually attracting people for whom the violence is the ends and the ideology is the means.

We are watching a coordinated right-wing takeover of popular media and it won’t stop here. archive.today/bXzZd

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

white supremacists and capitalists got so mad at one 18 month stretch of increased labor power that they've agreed to reverse the most complex economy in human history to an agrarian state

If they had a right-wing, “tough-on-crime” coded mayor there would be endless national profiles about him and how he finally brought sanity back to Chicago.

"Additionally, we will be charging a 30% Tariff on Upholstered Furniture"

Also: when a government acts brutally and lawlessly and immorally, but tells you that pointing those things out incites violence and terrorism, that government and its agents are entitled to no respect or credence.

The circumstances of Mr. Escobar's arrest are even worse than the brief summary above. He repeatedly tried to tell the immigration officials that he had papers while they were arresting him. In response, a federal agent said "No you don't. You are illegal," and "Shut up, bitch! You're illegal."

WOW. The lead plaintiff is a Latino man who's been here legally for 24 years. He was grabbed off the street by plainclothes federal agents who didn't even ASK about his status. He was detained overnight and only released once a supervisor realized he had been illegally arrested.
