A Federal judge said that the deployment of national guard to DC is illegal. He paused the removal to not cause chaos until the after the expected appeal.

Technically, they are following illegal orders by being there.

Why aren't the Governors recalling their troops from our cities?

Stop saying, "They'll never impeach him." Low expectations grant them permission to continue to do nothing. (Which is a relief to them.)

Demand integrity. Expect better of them. Require them to do their jobs and honor the oaths they swore.

Stop giving them permission.

THEY. ARE. LISTENING.

The sheer tyranny of Donald Trump’s attacks on six brave Democrats – Senators Kelly and Slotkin, and Representatives Crow, Deluzio, Goodlander, and Houlahan – must not be ignored.

These lawmakers simply reaffirmed the constitutional duty of our service members to disobey illegal orders.

There is quite a different sort of conversation around a fire than there is in the shadow of a tree. For dry logs have in them all the circumstance necessary to a conversation of 4or5hours, with chestnuts on the plate&a jug of wine. Let us love winter, for it is the spring of genius. ~Pietro Aretino

Isn’t this something that should be investigated? What are the details related to this pardon? Who requested that a pardon be considered on behalf of Juan Hernandez. What documents, emails exist? Was anything of value offered? Who was involved in the process?

How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

Weekly gratitude practice. What's everyone grateful for?

My thanks to everyone who protested on Tuesday as ICE, aided by the Saint Paul police, abducted two people from their home. We did not stop it, but we witnessed it.

It was awful. I got a little bit pepper sprayed. I am ready to do it again.
