It’s truly hard to reconcile a lifetime of believing that the purpose of government in the United States is to help citizens with the hatred ICE and other federal agencies have displayed for Americans in Chicago, LA, DC and other US cities
In Elgin, ICE agents have been in a standoff with the community as they’re trying to arrest a man. Here’s an altercation between the feds and residents ending with arrest and pepper spray. Video from Sophia Peterson

After his attempt to purchase the Baltimore Colts was rejected, Trump helped start a rival football league. This, too failed (of course it did). Trump blamed the NFL and sued them. Shockingly, given his history with lawsuits, he won.
The jury awarded him $1 in damages

Trump: "When you look at football in the US, soccer -- we seem to never call it that, because we have a little bit of a conflict with another thing that's called football. But when you think about it, shouldn't it really be called football? We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff."

Birthright citizenship isn’t a “longstanding principle”
It’s a Constitutional Amendment
And way back in 1898 the Supreme Court determined it applies to virtually ALL persons born in America
Which is why it concerns me-greatly-that the MAGA justices have agreed to hear this case

They passed it anyway

True, the Supreme Court can’t overrule or rewrite the Constitution. But they CAN “interpret” it. Therein lies the problem. Because this Court has perverted the law so many times, even clauses that seem thoroughly immutable can’t be considered safe.
There isn’t much for our Supreme Court to hear, the Constitution is already clear. And just to be absolutely clear: the Supreme Court does not have the power to overrule or rewrite our Constitution.

There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.
ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.
Why is ICE harassing women?

The Indiana Senate has said it won’t vote on the gerrymandered maps-despite Trump’s threats and demands
We’ll see if they can stand up to him like some other Republicans-Massie, Greene, etc-have done
If they do, more will probably start to defy him-and there may be light at the end of the tunnel
