PETITION: Don't Let the Federal Government Regulate Your Reading Not one country's freedom and liberty has ever been increased by banning books.

The federal government should not decide what your kids are allowed to read.

Oppose the Federal Book Ban bill!

Sign the petition and defend the freedom to read.

Study of Buddhist Monks Finds Meditation Alters Brain Activity Meditation isn’t thinking about nothing. New research reinforces that it’s a mind-altering, dynamic state that promotes focus, learning, and well-being.

TW ⚠️ β€”- SANTA ANA: Trump’s goons shoot an unarmed 21 year-old protestor in the eye at point blank range with a non-lethal round, blinding him in it forever… then drag him on the ground like an animal.

For months, Trump’s DHS has wreaked lawless havoc in our neighborhoods. Tear gassing infants, families, and police. Firing their weapons at peaceful citizens. Killing innocent people.

It’s brutal, unconstitutional, and out of control.

It must stop.

Kristi Noem must go. Now.

The guy calmly blasting a protestor in the face w chemicals while his colleagues appear unperturbed and media calmly stand aroundβ€”so, you know, a clearly non-dangerous momentβ€”has β€œBORTAC” on his vest.

That’s CBP. The guys who make ICE look well-trained and disciplined.

Attacking his political opponents, the press, all norms.

Lots of US companies have done lots of dreadful things to Americans. But the symbolism of paying to destroy the White House is hard to top.

Rand Paul: "When you kill someone, if you're not in a declared war, you really need to know someone's name at least. You have to accuse them of something. You have to present evidence. So all of these people have been blown up without any evidence of a crime."

Legal experts say Kristi Noem's airport video breaks the law. Penalties are unlikely In a Department of Homeland Security video, Kristi Noem blames Democrats for the government shutdown. Law and ethics experts say it violates the Hatch Act, but there are rarely serious consequences.

Everyone can set aside partisanship, psychologizing, pathologizing, whatever, andβ€”I would hopeβ€”still see that it’s incredibly dangerous for a political leader to be this disconnected from the real conditions in the country.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has β€œplenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the β€œplenary authority” comment edited out.

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
