No law enforcement officer operating in Connecticut—federal, state, or local—can wear a mask on duty. ICE and CBP agents have to show their faces and badges. And when an officer assaults someone recording them, commits false imprisonment, false arrest, or malicious prosecution, they lose immunity.
Thank you.
The effective federal corporate income tax rate:
1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%
Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.
That is how we will pay for it.

Embarrassingly, those of us lucky enough to be comparatively well-situated in this country often feel in some way that we should not be the ones to act because we have more to lose. It is precisely because we have more to lose that we must act.

Happy Sunshine Week! DHS tells FOIA officers to hide records or get fired.
Plus: Here’s how you can support Rep. Tlaib’s Ellsberg Act, which fixes the outdated Espionage Act to ensure it isn’t used as a cudgel against the press.
Brendan Carr, FCC chair, threatens broadcaster licenses. This is a violation of the First Amendment.
First Amendment violation, Brendan.
I wonder if a class-action lawsuit (with 320 million of us being the injured class) might change your mind.
Do this and ALL of us will see you in court.

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends,
=====it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it,=====
and to institute new Government,
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind REQUIRES that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
Is this now a toothless document?

Exactly. To the extent you turn it into a religious war, you almost guarantee your defeat. Unit cohesion is a must have.

The problem is this: if we disguise our warplanes and torpedo unarmed submarines and pull every dirty trick we can think of we have no standing when others do it to us. When there are no rules of engagement or clear objectives skata will go sideways. Exhibit A: The Caribbean Disgrace.

Ok. It wouldn't be efficient for me to show up there. Thanks for showing up in Western Mass! I have biked the Berkshires. ♥️ I really liked the area I saw.
