This will be the Supreme Court majority of six that goes down in history as the court that sold out American democracy. Shame on these six. They should and shall live in infamy.

Meta has removed a Chicago ICE-tracking Facebook page.

The move follows Apple and Google removing ICE activity tracking apps from their app stores.

The removals came after a demand from Trump’s DOJ.

Once again, Big Tech is bending the knee to our tyrant-in-chief to protect its bottom line.

We live in something closer to what we would call a state of generalized psychosis: a social landscape where symbolic authority has fractured, shared reality is unstable, and appeals to common norms routinely fail to hold any weight.

In this environment, shame has lost its footing. trib.al/5sLchu2

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

U.S. Military Kills Another 6 People in 5th Caribbean Strike, Trump Says

How shameful and disgusting to be a citizen of a nation that purposely murders people illegally and proudly. Our government has eroded into nothing better than Nazis and thugs!

Airports refuse to air Noem's video in airports because it's political in violation of the Hatch Act. The video blames Dems. for travel delays due to the govt. shutdown.

Airports say they won’t air Kristi Noem shutdown video at TSA checkpoints

Travelers in Cleveland, L.A., Phoenix, Seattle and other cities will not see the footage, which blames congressional Democrats for shutdown-related flight delays.
