Emerald was indicted on eight counts of interstate transmission of threatening communications, with allegations of making repeated threats on Facebook to kill and injure President Donald Trump.

Jefferson's words on equality are often seen as self-evident, yet they fail to encompass enslaved individuals, women, and other marginalized groups, revealing a significant contradiction.

Now they're trying to arrest me simply because I do not believe in gay rights and abortion. I had the cops called on me. A SWAT team showed up, and I'm now engaged in a shootout. My state has been the number one abortion and gay rights state in the entire country and I've been segregated against for my beliefs.

The Peoples Temple of the Disciples of Christ, today known as the Peoples Temple, was a U.S. new religious movement organization existing between its founding in 1955 until its dissolution in 1978. Founded by Jim Jones in Indianapolis, Indiana, the Peoples Temple spread a message combining elements of Christianity with egalitarian politics. Through the years, Jones tightened his control over the group, first by requiring members to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas together as a Temple "family" rather than with blood relatives.

The scene was chaotic and joyful, with several young kids running around and scattering croissant crumbs on our sofa while their parents attempted adult conversation over mimosas. Inevitably, the moment arrived when a child knocked over a drink on our coffee table. It was an old West Elm design with a panel on top and a storage area underneath. The spilled beverage was dripping into the seams, so a crowd of parents rushed to open the table and mop up the liquid pooling within.

Police in Washington, DC, have arrested an 18-year-old man as he ran towards the Capitol Building, home to the US Congress, armed with a loaded shotgun and extra ammunition. The suspect, identified as Carter Camacho from Smyrna in the state of Georgia, was wearing a tactical vest and gloves, and had additional ammunition along with the loaded shotgun, police said on Tuesday.

As the United States heads toward the midterm elections, there are growing concerns among some political scientists that the country has moved even further along the path to some form of autocracy. Staffan I. Lindberg, the director of Sweden's V-Dem Institute, which monitors democracy across the globe, says the U.S. has already crossed the threshold and become an "electoral autocracy."

Not one more dime for the Department of Homeland Security until they start following the law in this country! Fereshteh came to this country over a decade ago coming to the United States from a refugee camp. She told me just off stage that this is the moment, this is reason that she came here to the U.S. to speak truth to power.

Under Kristi Noem, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has gone on an explicitly fascist zag as it seeks to recruit 10,000 additional U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. Robert Reich and others have detailed in recent weeks how ICE is now actively seeking to recruit extremist young men from gun shows, Ultimate Fight Club venues, rodeos, martial arts centers, and other haunts for men who tend to have a far right political vision.

By the way, the head of the Oath Keepers is here with us in the audience. Stewart Rhodes is here today. It's not every day, of coursenot every day, of courseyou get to meet someone who was convicted of seditious conspiracy against the United States. Hasn't happened in 30 years, Moskowitz said, adding: Of course, sitting in the front row in the reserved section, which is controlled by my colleagues across the aisle.

Yeah, what's the difference? I mean, it must be exhausting with these people's mental gymnastics. Like, okay, okay. Let's use for the sake of argument, let's use their logic. And then that anybody that interferes or MP with law enforcement will meet the consequences. Let's use that logic. Okay. By that logic, every single person at January 6th should have been shot dead! By their logic! I'm not suggesting that let's be a hundred percent clear.

After the past three weeks of brutality in Minneapolis, it should no longer be possible to say that the Trump administration seeks merely to govern this nation. It seeks to reduce us all to a state of constant fear a fear of violence from which some people may at a given moment be spared, but from which no one will ever be truly safe. That is our new national reality. State terror has arrived.

On a gray Friday afternoon in Washington, D.C., with the nation's capital bracing for a forecast snowstorm expected to arrive Sunday and local officials urging residents to prepare for possible disruptions, Vice President JD Vance stood on a stage near the National Mall and delivered a blistering address attacking abortion rights and LGBTQ+ equality as existential threats to the nation.

Threats against elected officials are not political speech, they are criminal acts that strike at the heart of public safety and our democratic system, the district attorney for Dutchess county, Anthony Parisi, said in a statement. Moynihan, of Pleasant Valley, New York, was charged last October after he sent threatening text messages about an appearance Jeffries was scheduled to make in New York City, according to a complaint filed in New York state court in Clinton.
