When a government goes after a company and threatens to burn it down because they won't let their product be used for nefarious reasons says something chilling about that government.πŸ—½

Trump doesn"t fire people anymore, he "transfers" them to a meaningless position in which they receive a stipend for shutting their mouths and doing nothing.

Rep. Stansbury: How many more lives will be put on the line for Trump's war with Iran?
Rep. Stansbury: How many more lives will be put on the line for Trump's war with Iran? YouTube video by Rep. Melanie Stansbury

Why is this war happening? Trump’s war in Iran has been launched without giving Congress or the American people even a basic explanation of why it is happening in the first place.

Six American servicemembers’ lives have already been lostβ€”how many more will be put on the line? This war must stop.

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

The contrast is ghoulish. A "pro-business" president nearly killing people because cruelty is the point.

He lies through his teeth. He changes his mind continuously. He acts on whim. He’s driven by vengeance, hate and money. He wants more power for no good but only to feed his insatiable broken ego that never gets enough. Woe to everything you may love. Giving up or giving in are not options.

ICE Wants to Buy Warehouses for Mass Detention. Communities Are Fighting Back. People across the political spectrum are realizing these federal detention warehouses will harm their communities.

The overdue firing of Kristi Noem will have no bearing on the continued plans for unwanted warehousing of human beings across the country.
The spotlight should focus on these warehouses (de facto concentration camps) during Markwayne Mullin's confirmation hearing.

A Rockfish swims by a small cave where a medium-sized fish called a Cabezon waits. They're ambush predators, they wait on the sea floor hoping a crustacean or 2 or 3 walks by close enough to use their buccal pump. They suck in water quickly, expelling it out their gills and that makes a meal of a small crab, shrimp, and even abalone if they're lucky.

A Black & Yellow Rockfish swims by small cave where a Cabezon lurks. Both use the same strategy on reef where they remain motionless hoping a crustacean or another tasty animal walks by. When prey get close enough they use their buccal pump to suck water & prey into their mouths.

The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.

We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.
