Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

I don't want this to get lost: after RFK Jr. finished with his tantrum, he ADMITTED he is blocking BILLIONS in federal child care funding.
That needs to change IMMEDIATELY.

Another insane story. The US has confiscated this family’s baby and put her into foster care, basically because the parents have tattoos — and deported the mom to Venezuela and trafficked the dad into prison in El Salvador. They have no known criminal record
A Venezuelan family is calling for a 2-year-old to be returned to her mother after the Trump administration deported the mother to Venezuela on Friday without the child. The toddler remains in foster care in the U.S., officials said. The girl’s father was sent to a prison in El Salvador.
A Mother and Father Were Deported Under Trump. But What Happened to Their Daughter?
The Trump administration sent the mother of a 2-year-old to Venezuela and the father to a Salvadoran prison. Their daughter remains somewhere in the United States.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.
If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Brave, courageous, powerful statement from Abrego Garcia's wife, Jennifer. Watch, cry a little, share and let's keep fighting everyone.
Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

She said, “May I ask you to have mercy Mr. President on those in our communities whose children fear that their parents will be taken away." If Mike Johnson thinks that’s “radical,” perhaps he has a fundamental misunderstanding of his own religion.
