"And so, five years after the events of January 6, 2021, we are learning what it means to have a president who has demonstrated his determination to overthrow our democracy and who does not have to answer to the law."

This is absolutely disgusting. This was a state sanctioned murder of unarmed, starving people. We have apologized for this atrocity (which is the least we could do). These men should not receive any commendation. He's right about one thing though. Their place in history IS settled. As murderers.

I find it deeply disturbing that Brown had capitulated to this administration. If you have ever walked down Thayer St. you know that this is an area of open expression and hope. To try and erase that or suppress it is cruel, and I believe will prove ultimately futile. Shame on Brown University.

So ICE kidnappers engage in a car chase through Providence, don't alert the police of this, hit the car they're chasing, then the police show up and help them disappear the guy. Can we send them a bill for the police response and fines for causing an accident? They're flush with cash these days...

We Hold These Truths @weholdtruths.bsky.social · 03/07/2025
The Constitution belongs to all of us. We’re proud to launch this new initiative to make the rule of law accessible for all. Because our nation is at its best when Americans are informed, engaged, and empowered. 🔗 Learn more: www.weholdtruths.org
We Hold These Truths logo: 

We still hold these truths, even though they are under attack. It will take all of us to protect and defend people, their rights, and our future.  Join us: weholdtruths.orgJoin Americans of all backgrounds and beliefs in support of:

Personal Freedoms
The personal freedoms accorded throughout the Constitution and its many amendments are an essential protection against government tyranny and reflect the inherent rights of every person in the United States.

Equality
Equality is a precondition of freedom.  We all are free only when all of us, not just some of us, are free from discrimination, exclusion, and threat. Without equality for all, freedom for all is a broken promise.

Democracy and Elections
In a democracy, voters elect their leaders, and elected candidates make the law.  Our democratic republic functions best when Americans accept, honor, and respect election results.  To achieve this outcome, elections must be conducted in a fair manner.

Separation of Powers
A fundamental structural feature of the Constitution, and its chief safeguard of our liberty, is avoiding the concentration of power by separating and placing limits upon the legislative, executive, and judicial powers of government among three branches that check, balance, and respect each other’s power.  

The Rule of Law
To preserve liberty, fairness, and the stability of our democratic society, the exercise of power by the government and other actors must be limited by law.
