Uninfluencial ponderer. Constitutional advocate. Sucker for words.
Children screaming and crying can be heard as a possible uprising is underway at the ICE Children’s Concentration Camp in Dilley, TX (1/24/26). Reportedly filmed by a lawyer.
They've gone a step further to blatant torture. I haven't seen the man's name but someone needs proof of life because I wouldn't expect them to provide aid when his lungs close up.
These views being conveyed by members of Congress tell us everything about the state of our country in this moment. Words condemning fascist tactics caused this, but the man's own profiteering from spreading vile hatred should never enter into any conversation about why he was killed. Makes sense.
Just saw this letter from Mike Pence to @pamelaannehemphill.bsky.social. I wasn't aware anyone refused the pardon but I share his sentiments completely.
Truly brilliant move by these students. Since the administration has weaponized the courts TO DETAIN PEOPLE LEGALLY FOLLOWING THE PROCESS, this may be an effective tool to counter that. Anyone with an immigration hearing should seriously consider this option for the time being.
Great crowd in Indianapolis today. The capitol lawn was full and the property was encircled by marchers. It's the biggest turnout I've seen here personally.

Hate to call you out but that's simply not true. As @junlper.beer pointed out, Trump was HAPPY to accept responsibility for a booming stock market under Biden.
Every now and then I see a story with such an ominous undertone that I'm reminded of this quote. But it feels like we've gone well beyond now, as we're collectively watching people disappeared without due process. Waiting, praying for intervention, action, and return to some semblance of reason.
