Blumenthal: "I'm a no vote on that spending bill unless there are conditions that require ICE to go to a judge, to get a warrant, as well as other kinds of constraints -- the use of masks, the non-identification, the unmarked cars. These secret police, totalitarian tactics need to be stopped."

Our neighbors are living in fear because of the violent and lawless actions of the Trump administration. But Republicans put forth a bill to increase funding for the Department of Homeland Security without any oversight or accountability measures for ICE and DHS.

Jack Smith: “The investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in criminal activity — no one should be above the law in this country & the law required he be held to account”

"The question is are we prepared to respond when [Constitutional] limits are tested, ignored, or broken. History suggests that waiting until the law is fully cast aside is always too late."

This is who federal agents are ripping out of their communities and shipping across the country. This is the danger we're being protected from.

the reaction to the death of Scott Adams should contrast particularly with the (eventual) death of Bill Watterson, who will be mourned in the style of the ancient Pharaohs, with all of Ohio entombed alive along with him

"Stop calling ICE the Gestapo! ICE is nothing like the Gestapo. Now, let me innumerate all the many ways ICE is exactly like the Gestapo. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

Dear ICE,
Thou shalt not wear a mask and abduct 5-year-olds and call yourself a ‘Christian.’
You are the complete opposite of Christ.
Hate,
God

This new whistleblower report is on par with the Zelensky call - not just because it’s violative of law - but because they also tried to keep people from seeing it. I’ve been doing this for a long time and this is absolutely explosive news. Impeachable and criminal. Swift accountability must follow.

Trump:
"NATO has treated the United States very badly. We've never asked for anything. We've never got anything."
Tell that to the families of 850 soldiers from 19 non-US NATO countries who died fighting to defend the United States in Afghanistan - the only occasion Article 5 was ever triggered.
