Typical shameless, mealy-mouthed framing from the Times here. Citizenship doesn’t “elude the grasp” of people in the final stages of naturalization! It is being taken from them by sadistic scofflaws. Why can’t you say that?
Sweeping immigration changes by the Trump administration have resulted in the cancellation of oath ceremonies, the last step in the process of becoming a citizen. The actions are the latest attempt to tighten who can call themselves an American. w/ Orlando Mayorquín www.nytimes.com/2025/12/06/u...

If Germany can outlaw hate speech, so can the USA. Hate speech should NOT be protected speech in the USA. It’s past time to kick white supremacists to the curb. Domestic terrorists have no place in the USA. Stop accepting hateful rhetoric #Voices4Victory #ProudBlie

Journalists and media: stop bothsidesing attacks on childhood vaccines. We look to you to report what is happening and what the effects will be, not repeat the administration’s rhetoric. The effects will be more sickness and more death. That is not something to bothsides. Hold power accountable.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is just as bad as @schumer.senate.gov we need to do some house cleaning in our party and wrestle it away from corporations.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social needs to go, pardons for a congressman before his trial is unconscionable. We need to get rid of the corruption and corporate politicians in DC and some of them are in the Democratic party.

The reality, of course, is that Miller and a significant portion of Trump’s base are the ones who failed to assimilate to America’s post-WWII culture of multi-racial democracy & religious pluralism…and they are now using their power to destroy that once dominant (and still popular) American culture.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

NEW: By trying to stop a voter-led referendum, Missouri’s GOP is testing whether politicians can insulate their gerrymander from public judgment altogether. The outcome could reshape how, and whether, voters can check partisan power.
