This is what Hess said: “It brings up mixed emotions to represent the US right now. I think it’s a little hard. There’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of. Just because I wear the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that's going on in the US.”

It’s going to be funny when someone does a protest on the podium and Trump posts on Truth Social about how we’re going to take the medal away

The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

Dems should introduce lots of such legislation, demand hearings and debate, make a huge fuss, use paid media to call out GOP members who are blocking their consideration--and make clear this GOP Congress is enabling the madness.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

The Trumpist majority on SCOTUS, like Trump himself, is spending down a trust fund they did not create, apparently believing it refills automatically. But it doesn’t. The whole system depends on other key institutions treating their rulings as legitimate.
It seems like federal district courts are in full revolt against SCOTUS. I've never seen such direct scathing criticism of SCOTUS like this from the bench over their shadow docket rulings quietly overturning precedent without explanation.

From the Harvard decision today.

Deeply fucked up. You can hear him announcing he's senator Padilla, and the fuckers push harder.
Senator Padilla’s office sends me this video of his take-down and detention at Sec. Noem’s press conference in L.A.

Like everything trump does, "defy judicial orders" is not 0/1. He probes....he retreats...he does stuff that maybe technically breaks the law but it's iffy....he does it but then says it was inadvertent...eventually he just does it outright and it becomes the new normal.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

We have no one to blame but ourselves. Trump et al advertised their intentions clearly and skated by on people not believing their own eyes and ears because of the it can't happen here/ now human psychology fallacies people are prone to. They even posted Pinochet helicopter memes for years.

So who decides now if someone is a gang member or if someone has a valid asylum claim under the law? Tom Homan? A random ICE agent? A local Sheriff’s deputy? A neighbor? An informant? So they just say a person is in a gang and they get disappeared to a prison in El Salvador?

The people Attorney General Bondi is calling “terrorists” have had no trial and no chance to defend themselves. We do not know who they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril.

I’m not exactly sure how yet, but somehow Trump is going to blame Zelensky for Putin’s refusal to sign a cease fire agreement.

I’m totally fine with deporting gang members who commit crimes who don’t have legal status.

I just don’t want Tom Homan or an ICE agent grabbing anyone off the street and flying them to a prison in El Salvador while claiming they are all of those things with zero due process.

🚨BREAKING: It seems very clear that the Administration decided not to abide by the court's order. The question now is what will the judge do. Does he proceed with contempt or something short of that to defuse.

Upping the stakes is the fact that the AG and her senior staff signed this notice.

This is a great idea. Do you know anyone in Congress you can talk to?
Congress must take action to restore the rule of law.
