Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement? The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy. At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

So, Youtube has paid Trump 24.5 million to settle. Oh…and as part of that settlement…Noel Casler’s podcast can no longer be watched on Youtube. They are buying up media at an accelerated rate of speed…to silence dissent. Notice, however…Trump never threatens to sue Noel. Noel has THE receipts.

OH THE HUMANITY

Bonta: Just minutes before the hearing, we got word that the Texas National Guard has been federalized. We asked the judge to issue a broad order — one that applies to every National Guard unit in every state — stating that none of them can be deployed to Oregon. She issued that order
