We asked PAXIS App why so many legal resident and citizens including veterans have been aggressively targeted by ICE:
PAXIS says: U.S. citizens and legal residents have been taken from their homes at gunpoint, denied the opportunity to present ID, and transported in cuffs before being released with no charges—after trauma has already been inflicted.

I wrote about Justice Neil Gorsuch Pikachu-facing throughout oral argument in Wolford v. Lopez today bc the Court told states that modern gun laws must have "historical analogues" and, as it turns out, a lot of historical laws are racist

The Supreme Court’s “History and Tradition” Test Just Ran Into America’s History and Tradition of Anti-Black Racism
Requiring "historical analogues" for modern gun laws eventually turns up some history that makes even the conservative justices uncomfortable.

It is not up to the armed forces to put a stop to Trump’s ghastly ideas of war against NATO. The United States is not run by the military, nor should it be. Americans, and their elected representatives, must take this burden away from the armed forces—now.
