It’s a chance to bring suffering and perhaps death to the weakest and most vulnerable, so there was little doubt how the Republican Supreme Court would rule.

The article doesn’t quite answer the headline’s question, so I will: Why are they prosecuting non-violent protesters? Because cops are cops, so local cops support ICE, and prosecutors are virtually always on the cops’ side. There is no-one in government who actually believes you have a right to peacefully protest, unless you luck into a judge who still has a soul.


Because that’s not the way dictatorships go down.


Oh, I’m all the evil.


Gosh, another black woman Trump can’t respect. What are the odds!


The news keeps getting better and better! DHS is largely a useless agency, and eliminating these special privileges for “certain people” will give those people a small reminder of reality for the rest of us.


It’s not an argument, and not to be won.


Trump & the Republicans are currently more powerful than people carrying signs. Thus, it’s pointless for people to protest. Is that your point?

Worth looking into, thanks.


Crap. Obviously, I’m gonna gotta stop using archive.today, but it’s the only way around paywalls at numerous sites.
Removepaywalls.com (plural) inserts ads, often for shady operations.
Removepaywall.com (singular) usually works, but it’s tricky sharing the links (i.e., “choose option 2” or “choose option 4”).
Byebyepaywall.com has old, dead options.
Wayback Machine bombs out a lot.
And ghostarchive.org is successful so rarely it’s really a last resort.
Anyone know of any others?


Both sides do it, both sides do it.


oh crap, what’s the news TODAY?


And I get where you’re coming from. (: But I have never heard ‘sweetmeat’ as anything but a pickup line.


None of this is in my top 10,000 worries right now, and I’m lactose intolerant and drink almond milk and eat boca burgers, but let’s be factual, please. Milk, meat, and flesh have always referred to animal products.


? Not a “bombshell,” and hardly news at all. You’d have to never glance at the news to not know that Trump “fought the hardest” to bury the Trump-Epstein files.


Exactly the right response.


Suspended, with pay.


As you’d expect, this will have no impact on ICE, CBP, or the ongoing round-up of brown people.
If your hopes rely on the Democratic Party, all is already lost.
