Yes! There ARE ways you can fight #ICE or, as I like to call them, the #ICEGestapo! One of them is with the Law!

On MSNOW today I called out religious fundamentalist GOP Speaker Mike Johnson who has been accused by GOP women of being sexist--at same time Johnson is banning coverage for IVF by US Military for service members because it's against his religion. As I noted: This is what "sharia" law looks like!

don't worry, john roberts says this is a legitimate exercise of presidential power and if we did anything to curb it, we would be robbing the executive of the energy he needs to do his job
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”

In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

Trainwreck? In October 2024, The Economist called Biden's economy "the envy of the world."
BARTIROMO: What are you expecting the president's economic message to be?

SEN. McCORMICK: I think the message is that we inherited a trainwreck from the Biden administration and we made a lot of progress

At some point someone just needs to say “you are an indecent person, you are lying to cover the slaughter of defenseless men, you know you are lying, and even under the tenets of your own professed faith you will certainly burn in hell if you continue down this path”
WELKER: Isn't it possible that even the act of taking off a t shirt could've been part of an attempt to get attention for help?

TOM COTTON: Or it could've been an attempt to signal to another cartel boat to come pick them up and pick up the cargo

There's an important point here which I also just made on @cnn.com.

DOJ created a make-believe armed conflict to justify the boat bombing scheme.

But in practice DoD may be coloring outside DOJ's lines and could be committing crimes even under DOJ's alternate version of legal reality.
I read the classified legal memo and disagree that military strikes on drug boats are legal (w/o congressional war authorization).

But nothing in the memo would authorize strikes on boats not even headed for the U.S. That’s just straight up murder.

DOJ must open investigation.
BREAKING: Boat blown up by U.S. military in Caribbean waters WAS NOT HEADED TO THE U.S.!

The justification for killing these people was the claim they were bringing drugs to the U.S Not true! The military says they were going to a small country near Venezuela.

My kid’s holiday show today had a Les Mis theme to it, which is all the pretext I need to repost this….
I saw on the news this morning that Les Mis is returning to the stage in France, inspired to import over here what I think was my greatest thread Over There.

Les Mis debuted in 1980, just as mass incarceration was taking off. It warned us, we didn't listen. Its lyrics are a syllabus on CJ reform:

President Donald J. Trump commuted the prison term of David Gentile, who led GPB Capital, less than two weeks after he began serving a seven-year sentence in a $1.6 billion fraud that prosecutors said harmed more than 10,000 investors.

The only time Article 5 of the NATO Treaty was invoked was to defend us, not for us to defend Europe. European soldiers and civilians died fighting with us and working next to us in Afghanistan. Europe was not attacked on September 11, 2001.

In historical terms, this puts the Pam Bondi DOJ squarely in the Byzantine legal tradition—under which a jurisconsult would always pursue a literal reading of a legal text, ignoring the plain meaning or intention of the writer.
The DOJ's position is that it will not do anything that a judge does not explicitly require, even if that action is clearly the lawful implication of what is decided. Is this the DOJ's way of saying (again) that it will only follow SCOTUS orders? www.nytimes.com/2025/12/05/u...

This puts US support for NATO at an all time high. Most Americans also reject Trump's criticisms of NATO as nonsense.
