As many are noting, this is not true! On Amtrak back in August, I was opening my wallet to show a conductor my driver's license without thinking, and he said “I don’t need your ID, sweetheart. I ain’t the police.” Then we both laughed.
Markwayne Mullin defends "show me your papers": "If you're here legally, there's nothing to hide. Most people already are walking around with a government-issued ID, meaning your Real ID or your driver's license. If you go board a train here, you gotta show your ID."

Alors la Suisse n'est pas dirigée par un premier ministre mais par un ou une Président(e) de la Confédération. Et c'est actuellement un homme.

Trump: "So I put on a 30% tariff, which is very low. I got an emergency call from I believe the prime minister of Switzerland. She was very aggressive ... I didn't really like the way she talked to us, so instead of giving her a reduction, I raised it to 39%."

The paradox of tolerance, articulated by philosopher Karl Popper, suggests that a tolerant society must be intolerant of intolerance. Popper posited that if intolerant ideologies are allowed unchecked expression, they could erode tolerance itself through authoritarian practices.

I can’t stress this enough. The state of 4th Amendment law is that the cops can’t force you to type in a passcode but they can force you to swipe your finger or present your face. Never stop using passcodes/passwords to unlock your devices. And consider additional code to unlock Signal.
The FBI was able to access Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson's Signal messages because she used Signal on her work laptop. The laptop accepted Touch ID for authentication, meaning the agents were allowed to require her to unlock it. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.
But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.
