"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect"

Attacking the very rights they used to claim to fight for is not hypocrisy, it's the point.

Let a message for Sen. Warren and Sen. Markey that if they do not call for Schumer to resign I will assume he is right that the no vote is just for show and in fact he is covering for them; they want to cave and sell out the American people on healthcare costs but are too scared to vote yes #mapoli

Can confirm. He's on the phone right now.

I'm leaving a message with my senators in #mapoli Mass. If they don't call on Schumer to resign, then it's tacit agreement with the decision. Voting no isn't enough if you don't call for consequences for selling out the American people; then you agree with the decision, and he is covering for you

Impressive how Dem Senators are able to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory. How do they suck this badly??

In today’s @bostonglobe.com Kenia Guerrero writes about the loss of her husband. He is not dead but he is gone, disappeared by ICE. Please — I implore you — read every word and share. Since the Globe doesn’t have gift articles I have screenshotted the entire piece.

We can’t turn away from this. 1/2
KENIA GUERRERO ICE deported my husband. Our everything is gone, and we are unraveling. This is not just an immigration issue. This is an issue of basic humanity. It is the brutal unraveling of a family. Kenia Guerrero • Updated June 30th, 2025, 7:38 AM • Listen Kenia Guerrero is co-owner of a painting business in Chelsea. On Mother's Day, May 11, my life fell apart. What should have been a day to celebrate family unity culminated in family separation at the hands of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Chelsea. That morning, my husband, Daniel Flores-Martinez, noticed suspicious cars parked down the street from our home, but we continued our daily activities. We prepared ourselves to head to church. My husband helped our three children get into the car, including our 12-year-old daughter, who lives with multiple disabilities. A few minutes after driving away, we saw flashing lights behind us. I pulled over. Suddenly, the suspicious cars my husband had seen surrounded us. Masked, armed officers swarmed our vehicle from both sides. One of them asked for my identification, but he was clearly interested in my husband, not me. He insisted on knowing who my husband was. I know my rights as a US citizen, and as the driver, I asked why they wanted to know about a passenger. I asked who they were and why our car had been stopped. But I received no answers. Within moments, one of the officers raised what looked like a weapon and used it to tap the glass of the passenger window, suddenly threatening to break it. I begged them not to use violence because my children were in the back seat. Without any regard for our safety, they smashed the passenger-side window. Glass shards flew into the car, even into the back seat, where our children were sitting. They screamed. We were all terrified. Within seconds, ICE officers physically reached inside the vehicle through the shattered window and unlocked the front passenger door. Then the officers opened the door and unbuckled Daniel's seat belt. They forcefully yanked him out of the car. They slammed him face down onto the sidewalk, their knees pressed into his back, even though he never resisted. A bystander captured it all on video. I ran out to see what was happening, but an officer restrained me. I pleaded with her, saying, "Aren't you a mother?" But the officers did not stop. My children sobbed as the officers arrested Daniel, taking him away. No one ever told us who they were. No one showed a warrant. And just like that, Daniel was gone. Now he has been deported. And we are left behind. Daniel, an undocumented immigrant, was deported to Matamoros, Mexico - even though he has no ties there. Daniel is a loving father and a devoted husband, and he helps run our small family painting business. He is the backbone of our home, community, and church. His sudden and violent removal has left our family in crisis - medically, emotionally, and economically. Our daughter is disabled. She lives with epilepsy, hydrocephalus, and cerebral palsy. These conditions require constant medical care and hands-on support. She cannot dress or bathe without assistance. Daniel provided all this care unassumingly, with love and diligence, every single day. Since he was taken, our daughter's condition has worsened. Her mental health has deteriorated. She lacks motivation to attend school and has a hard time focusing in class. How can anyone blame her? Her father is gone. I am doing my best, but I am now the sole caregiver to our children - our daughter and two sons, ages 14 and 3- and I am struggling.

Sincerely, please correct me if I'm wrong here: If an unidentified masked man with a gun tells me to get into his car, and a nearby cop sees this happening, the cop isn't supposed to try to determine whether I'm being legally or illegally taken at gunpoint?

Trump says he wants to send Americans to gulags in El Salvador: "I love that. If we could take some of our 20 time wiseguys that push people into subways ... if he would take them, I would be honored to give them. I don't know what the law says on that ... I'm all for it."

Massive turnout for Hands Off rally in Boston. Organizers estimate 100k. That's ~2% of Boston metro area population. People are pissed.
