These guys are gonna fuck up #socialsecurity just in time for me to qualify. Ditto #Medicare.
Am I surprised? Nah. Red Don and his puppet master Elno Skum are already murdering children and handing this country over to its enemies; it’s not like stealing is too extreme for them.
The nightmare continues.
Russian scientist working at #Harvard detained by #ICE at Boston's Logan Airport—
Kseniya Petrova was returning to the US from a trip to France when officials revoked her #visa and detained her.

Background:
US District Judge Boasberg issued a TRO prohibiting the government from deporting #migrants under the Alien Enemies Act (passed in 1798 as part of the legislative package historians refer to as the Alien & Sedition Acts).
In an extraordinary move (albeit one that this administration is frequently employing), defendants (the government) appealed the TRO. A TRO (temporary restraining order) is normally not appealable.
Result:
Today, a 2-1 ruling by a panel of the US #Court of #Appeals for the District of Columbia slammed the government's case, finding it "unlikely" that the government would prevail in a full hearing on the merits. The court declined to reverse the TRO.
The dissenter is a judge appointed by #RedDon in his first term.
This is all procedural jousting. Though highly consequential, it's preliminary to a hearing and final judgement on the merits of the suit itself.

Beyond horrifying. Almost certainly a violation of international law. And all brought to you by the United States of #Amerika in 2025.
Looking forward to the day when Red Don and his band of thugs are brought to account. May that day come quickly.

@serge @raf Yeah well. . . Internet. 
To be clear, though: I was just making a specific point about your comment "they can't call for violence", noting that you can, actually, unless it rises to the level of incitement. Other than that I'm with you all the way. #Khalil is a bad actor, but due process for murderers ⇒ due process for Khalil ⇒ due process for you and me. Give up one and you've given them all up.
This happened to an attractive young white woman traveling on a valid Canadian passport. Imagine what they do to impoverished and terrified brown people arriving with their families at the #border with only their stories of #torture, persecution, and loss.

Handing over leadership in #science and #technology to #China, demolishing the engine that drives US prosperity
And, oh yeah, arrogating the powers of a king in a direct assault on our #democracy, #Constitution, and values
Stay. Focused.

Forget #autopen: even President Fragile Ego Tinyhands knows that's bullshit. It's a distraction. This administration is:
Killing children and adults in the 100s of 1000s by terminating #USAID's work with #AIDS patients overseas
Turning its back on America's allies while cuddling up to #Russia, a throwback #fascist regime with expansionist ambitions and #nuclearweapons
Abandoning heroes who courageously worked with American troops in #afghanistan leaving them to die at the hands of the #Taliban
Stranding #refugees who'd already been promised a place in America after deep #security and #medical vetting, even pulling them off of planes as they headed to the US
Treating #veterans as disposable while destroying the administrative state (about 1/3 of whose employees are vets) that keeps us all safe

In which Senator Whitehouse validates what I’ve been saying over and over Sharon since the #budget vote.
We need to dump the purity tests and abandon the reflexive #cancellation of those who disagree with us in good faith. As Senator Whitehouse explains very clearly, that’s exactly what this was: a good-faith disagreement between two groups making their best guess about what the future might hold. If you’re asserting otherwise, the burden’s on you to prove your case.
We’ll never know what would have happened on the path not taken. That’s part of what makes governing so difficult.

One day, hopefully soon, we'll get our #vengeance against the reich-wing #fascists destroying our nation from the inside out.
Our vengeance will consist of:
• Restoring the #RuleOfLaw
• Welcoming #refugees, #asylumseekers, and other #immigrants
• Rebuilding #dueprocess and strengthening it against compromise
• Reinstating and strengthening the #separationofpowers
• Investing heavily in #science
• Re-engaging with our #allies and mending broken relationships
• Feeding the hungry, housing the #homeless protecting the vulnerable
• Rehabilitating women's control over their own bodies and #healthcare
• Replacing banned books in libraries and classrooms
• Ensuring those who acted illegally while in positions of power are held accountable for their choices
My friend's daughter-in-law is a nurse practitioner at a VA hospital. She's been instructed to send, every week, an email to Elno listing 5 things she did during the week.
She says that #VA #healthcare workers, who can make more money in the private sector, are quitting in droves.
First Red Don creates an #unemployment crisis for #veterans, who make up a considerable segment of the federal workforce. Now he's creating a healthcare crisis.
Don't forget that he's also screwing #Afghans and others who supported American #military operations as translators and in other roles.
There's only one possible conclusion: President Fragile Ego Tinyhands hates our veterans, our #troops, and all who support them.
Canadian woman #incarcerated entering the country to go to a professional conference, despite holding all the appropriate paperwork.
And she's still there, eleven days later, in horrible conditions this country usually only reserves for the poor, the Black, and the brown.
The only upside here is that the improper #arrest of an attractive young white Canadian woman for imaginary #immigration violations might start to open some people's eyes.

I was there when the Berlin Wall fell. I have a piece of the wall, it’s a nondescript bit of concrete that will mean nothing to anyone when I’m gone, but for me, celebrating that day with the Germans who had never seen the other side of the wall, it’s a reminder that democracy can work. That fascists can fall. The rubble from the destruction of Black Lives Matter plaza tells the other side of that story. Fascism is rising, and they are on the upswing. But hold this rubble in your heart, for with its stones, we will destroy fascism again, and again, and every time they raise their dead eyes and plan destruction, we will pick up our rocks and go to war.
Looks like the web client screwed up my formatting (or Ivory is screwing up the view, don’t knit which until I get back to my laptop to compare).
Sorry about that
If you're a senior career manager in the #federal #government, and you receive an "order" from Elno cutting your funding or requiring you to fire people, it seems to me that you have two options:
The upside of compliance is that you may get to keep your job very slightly longer (don't worry, they'll get to you eventually). The downside is you're destroying the very agency you've spent your career building. And (take my word for it) laying off your colleagues is no fun. Also: everybody will hate you.
The downside of #resistance is that you'll probably get fired. On the other hand, you'll be able to look yourself in the mirror, and you will have refused to follow an illegal order, as simple ethics and morality demand. Plus you'll have a hell of a wrongful termination suit.
Either way you're eventually out of a job. Why not do the right thing now, when you can make a difference? #Democracy is depending on you.

Trump's base is finally starting to see who he really is. But they need to understand that "Trump" and "Republican" are synonymous terms. And that if we beat Trump, another Republican will just pick up where he left off. We need to beat the Republican Party.
