I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

What I want from the next Democratic administration is to put as many of these people in jail as possible. What I want from the upcoming Democratic majority is constant investigations that exposes as much of their criminal activity as possible for the next Democratic DOJ to use in indictments.

So let's get this straight: Russia just murdered over 65 people in Ukraine in less than 48 hours. Crushed a building on top of sleeping families to celebrate Putin's birthday. And today, the U.S. announces that they are lifting sanctions on Russian diesel and planning to buy some,

This is eugenics. There is no question that the vaccine is safe. There is no question that children will die without it. This is purposefully withholding life saving treatment. Paying a country to kill its children is genocidal.

Adios, Dolly Parton, who endured decades of sexism and shitty jokes from shitty men only to outlive them all with wit, kickass music, and a heart as big as the Smokies. Generations of kids are smarter and kinder because of her giving a damn about them. The rare icon who deserved all her glory.

The vandalism and desecration of the White House isn't just vanity and it's not trivial. It's caesarism, as in literally what Julius Caesar did to the symbolic architecture of civic republicanism. Our national iconography matters and allowing the disfiguring of it to persist is a substantive harm.

I’m interested in any political imagination for accountability. It has to be proactive & retroactive. It has to be spectacular. And, ideally, it would leave so many of them broke that it actually becomes a deterrent. Being poor is truly all they care about not because they don’t care about prison.

When Lindsey Graham appears in a history book, it'll be his prediction in 2016 that the Republican Party would be destroyed for supporting Donald Trump and then a few lines about how he proved it by becoming Trump's toady. That's pretty much it. That's his legacy. Pathetic lickspittle.

Happy 4th.
Doesn’t matter what the press says. Doesn’t matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn’t matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world — “No, you move.”

I have decided to just pretend that Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's concurring opinion on birthright citizenship is the official 250th anniversary speech for the United States. Happy 250th anniversary, USA 🎉! And here is part of Justice Jackson's conclusion - as the rest of this text, it is fire. 🗃️
“Of course, the ultimate irony is that for all the talk about
the detestable Dred Scott decision, the Government and the
principal dissent propose a return to its core tenet. Their
bottom line is that, for certain people, being born on Amer-
ican soil will not suffice to confer citizenship. It is that odi-
ous conclusion that the Citizenship Clause plainly rejects,
as the Court explains. Ante, at 26. I add only that the Four-
teenth Amendment’s universalist aims should forever be
the death knell for this kind of claim—one that seeks to
make bloodline the marker of birthright. The America that
was reborn from the rubble of the Civil War simply does not
countenance that inequitable result. Thankfully, a major-
ity of the Court remembered this today, and has dutifully
preserved the most basic animating principle of our Na-
tion’s founding—that all human beings are created equal—
once more.”

Frank Thorp V on Twitter: “Sen MURKOWSKI says if they don't do something about the weaponization fund in the recon bill, it will fail on final passage.

"If it doesn't limit it, if it still is viewed that there could be an opportunity for the department or the president to gain access to a fund that has some of the same contours that we're dealing with, as it was presented to us, I think you, you lose, you lose this vote on final, "Murkowski told @NBCNews, "There's enough people who really have great, grave concerns about the fund."”

No the fuck it was not. The Patriot Act and founding of DHS were opportunistic power grabs by the Bush administration amid the hysteria and paranoia following 9/11 to ramp up the surveillance state and increase state policing powers. And “Homeland” was ALWAYS considered fascist.
