- Reposted by MichaelThe Trump administration is trying to redefine citizenship by force, because they know the law and the Constitution are against them. Illegally removing this child from the US would be another cannonball fired at the fortress that protects the citizenship status and rights of ALL of us!
- Reposted by Michael2 Erika fled violence in Guatemala to seek asylum—a legal right. Instead of safety, she’s been caged, her newborn kept from her, and DHS agents are actively obstructing due process. A mother held incommunicado after childbirth isn’t immigration enforcement. It’s state-sponsored abuse. Raise hell.
- Reposted by Michael🧵 Erika gave birth in a Tucson hospital. Now she’s in CBP custody—separated from her newborn, isolated, & denied access to her lawyer. DHS agents are blocking Luis Campos from even speaking to her, despite him having all required paperwork. This is cruel. This is fascism. @aaronparnas.bsky.social
- I’m reading about a lot of anger focused on 45. That’s fair. We can get our country back. But remember the tens of millions who think he’s doing just a great job. Somehow they must become reasonable citizens.
- Does anyone think the average American has any idea of the incredibly complex coordination and labor required to get a pair of sneakers from a Chinese factory to a knock-off shoe store in Lickskillet, Kentucky? We are about to be a shut-down country. Restarting will be slow and friendless.
- It’s not “deportation” of US citizens. It’s kidnapping, crossing state lines, abuse & neglect, and anything else a great prosecutor can come up with. When we come through this to the other side, I don’t want to hear anything about pardons. These creatures need to feel the full weight of justice.

- As a citizen, I’m still sending messages to my elected Reps and Senators. It feels as though I am yelling into the wind. On Thursday, I’ll be yelling but it won’t be just into the wind. I’m marching. Join me?

- I don’t know the answer to this…but is there a “recall” option for citizenry to remove a president before the term is up? I don’t mean voting every four years but some other process?
- Informative article about James Jordan, the guy in Lafayette IN who brought a weapon to a Hands Off demonstration. It’s easy to imagine the effect that would have on a crowd. It’s also clear that they planned this. His wife admits they had motive to disrupt. www.basedinlafayette.com/p/lpd-asks-f...
