Why would a professional architect disgrace himself by participating in this outrageous and illegal project, whether or not it complies with norms of design?

Disabled people were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis.

They coined the term “useless eaters”.

They tested the gas chambers on us.

They knew most people wouldn’t fight to save our lives.

That’s why the President using the R slur is so dangerous.

We’re not expendable

Federal courts have ruled that Trump’s activation of the National Guard in California, Oregon, Illinois and even DC is illegal

But it seems Pam Bondi is determined to join Pete Hegseth by issuing illegal orders to our troops
Bondi: "Yes, we are bringing in our National Guard to every city we possibly can who needs our help. And that's a lot of them."

Day 5.

The entire administration is just as corrupt as Trump. They must all be removed and face consequences for their corrupt ways.

If you think you can take them on, run for office. Any office. Be progressive and raise your voice!

Bash: "Do you believe if there was a second strike to eliminate any survivors that it constitutes a war crime?"

Mark Kelly: "It seems to."

Bash: "If you received that order, would you have carried it out?"

Mark Kelly: "No…Going after survivors in the water is unlawful."

Klobuchar: "What the president has done is taken a horrific crime that occurred in DC and went 2,400 miles away to Somali & somehow indicted an entire group of people, 80k of them in my state, as well as all naturalized citizens. This is what he does. He tries to make people hate each other."

When a judge issues an order in any case, that is literally the law in that particular matter

Full stop

It can be appealed, reversed, stayed or amended-but until that happens (if it ever does), all parties MUST follow the ruling

So-Kristi Noem just admitted to contempt

There must be consequences
KARL: Did you know about the judge's order when you issued your order for the planes to continue?

KRISTI NOEM: This is an activist judge. We comply with all federal orders that are lawful and binding.

In case you’re wondering why Pete Hegseth is freaking out about a congressional video reminding the military not to participate in illegal orders:
To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.
Textbook war crime/extrajudicial killing

"Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck. The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack ... ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions."
