We had our roof replaced by Latinos who worked for a white male owner of the company. No one called ICE because we live in a MAGA county and all our neighbors use the cheapest labor they can get. There is no company here without Latino workers.

If Marsha Blackburn didn't want the federal government to be able to access her phone records, then Marsha Blackburn should not have voted in favor of the Patriot Act every time it came for vote.

Alas, senators cannot be sued for what they say, including defamation, during Senate hearings. They're protected by the Constitution's speech and debate clause.  That's why you hear dirtbags like Schmitt mouthing off: they know they can say anything they want and cannot be legally held liable.

The accusation of perjury is what will get him sued. You can call somebody names. To an extent. But once you state "you commited a crime" you need to back it up with evidence. That is why reporters always use the word "allegedly".

I think Smith has a reasonable defamation case against Schitt for calling him a "dirt bag" in public and on national television while being questioned, under oath, and fully cooperating.

Media companies who accept taxpayer money for Trump’s illegal campaign ads should be investigated and prosecuted if appropriate. Media executives accepting this money should be subpoenaed to appear before a Democratic Congress to explain why they are complicit in a crime.

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

Not sure what you mean by “crisis of the party’s constitutional legitimacy.”The constitution of the United States doesn’t take a position on political parties. The framing of the question is literally nonsensical. Also, the entire point of political parties is to achieve power through platform.

Yeah, and one party definitely doesn’t qualified as a American political party. That was kind of the point of constitutional legitimacy. At this point, I don’t think the Republicans should be allowed to run for office in any part of the United States. They are not American.

The two-party system in America is peculiar, restrictive and proving to be a near fatal weakness. Other democracies have other options voters can use to express their dissatisfaction instead of feeling they have to support their tribe no matter what.

Parties don't have "constitutional legitimacy"; the Constitution doesn't mention political parties. Arguably that's a large part of the problem; the Founders imagined different branches of the government would jealously guard their powers, not realizing that party affiliation would matter more.

It stopped being a single person's failure when the entire administration showed up in the Epstein files and Congress remained quiet. They are complicit and refusing to act for fear of light being shed on their own crimes. This is a criminal enterprise evading accountability.

Problem is the laws never expected a whole party to give allegiance to a president over the constitution and country. Laws will have to be put in place, both for the presidency and congress to codify proper allegiance to ensure the balance of power. And it says a whole lot that has to happen.

Trump’s ICE thugs shot 28-year-old Wilber Rafael Garces Perez through his car window as he was delivering food yesterday in Austin, Texas. His wife and lawyer were reportedly denied access to see him in the hospital, and ICE is now trying to deport him. This violence must end. Abolish ICE.

The teenagers said they repeatedly told ICE agents who were attacking them that they were U.S. citizens, but were told that the agents “don’t give a damn.”
