Friend and comrade, I hate to tell you my own family history, let alone that of millions... for my people, it was 99 long years from the Emancipation Proclamation to the Civil Rights Act.
Entire generations lived and died.
(I pray that the fire this time is kinder. I do pray.)

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.
And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

Very much this. Funny how the Court was perfectly happy to allow nationwide injunctions against Biden administration actions that were entered by conservative judges, especially ones like Judge Kacsmaryk in Texas. But now that judges are restraining Trump's illegal actions, the Court rushes in. 😡
If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

Since May:
Federal district courts have ruled against Trump admin 94% of the time.
Supreme Court has sided with the Trump admin 94% of the time.
A judiciary at war with itself.
