Jacob Levy, Tomlinson Professor of Political Theory at McGill University, cautioned in a Blue Sky thread that the case involving a Maryland man the U.S. government acknowledges was "wrongfully deported" has reached a "crisis moment."In March, Kilmar Ábrego García was accused of being an MS-13 gang m...

Well, boys & girls… What’s happening in your government right now, might literally be the reason for the second amendments exesisting.

Wake every day overwhelmed with dread, and the clinging stench of death and misery coating my everything.
Much like Nazism was not adopted by most Germans, Trumpism does not reflect the vast majority of Americans’ beliefs.
