Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

The CIA Director testified today that he is not sure a reporter was on the unclassified national security group chat that recklessly disclosed military plans in Yemen.

The whole world is aware of who was part of Signalgate.

These people cannot be trusted with America’s national security.

House Democrats are fighting to protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

The partisan Republican spending bill is an attack on veterans, seniors and families.

Unacceptable.

I agree with Donald Trump that an unelected bureaucrat should be fired.

Sounds like a billionaire who’s never talked to a working person in his life.

From Opinion

“Politicians are allowed to criticize the press,” writes the editorial board. “But there is a difference between using language and using muscle.” The Trump administration “is mustering the arms of government to suppress speech it doesn’t like and compel words and ideas it prefers.”

If only the powerful are free to speak their minds, it’s not free speech.
