NEW VIDEO: We uncovered footage showing Pete Hegseth in 2016 saying the military won’t follow unlawful orders — the same point he has recently criticized Democrats, including Sen. Mark Kelly, for making - and which Trump has said is punishable by death.

Time for a third reconstruction of American democracy.
The U.S. is the only democracy in the world with:
- Lifetime terms for high court judges
- An electoral college for choosing an executive
- A legislative chamber where legislative minorities routinely and permanently thwart legislative majorities
- 75% requirements for constitutional amendments

In April, I visited the ICE detention facility in Basile, LA, and heard directly from women detained there. We need answers from the Trump admin about reports of inhumane conditions, medical neglect, and miscarriages at Basile. Pregnant women deserve dignity, not cruelty.

🧵This is the narco Trump just pardoned.
The former president of Honduras transformed Honduras into a virtual narco-state.
He financed his political career with drug trafficking proceeds.
Used his presidential authority to pave a cocaine superhighway to the US, and Trump just set him free.

Homan threatens to arrest Mpls police chief O'Hara for expressing concern about ICE tactics: "Bottom line is when ICE or Border Patrol shows up, they'll have gear on, & they may be wearing a mask to protect from doxxing themselves and their children...he ought to put his badge in the dust drawer"

I just donated to an organization because they didn’t flood my email inbox this week asking for donations.
I had been meaning to do so for weeks.
But when I received a newsletter from them today actually contained useful info & did not once ask for a donation, I had to donate to thank them.

According to the US Coast Guard, the year prior to Trump changing our policy to summary execution, only 21% of the vessels interdicted by them off the coast of Venezuela suspected of trafficking drugs had drugs on board. The other 79% had nothing. But now we just kill them all.

For me it’s not just that Trump pardoned the head of a vast drug trafficking operation. It’s that he’s done this while committing war crimes and trying to start a war with Venezuela on the pretext that he’s trying to stop drugs from entering this country.
This is seriously a war is peace moment.

I REMEMBER.
In 1981, nearly 100% of people with AIDS died, often rapidly.
I remember weeping.
I remember Ronald Reagan's refusal to say "AIDS".
I remember the brave patients, loving caregivers, and the defiant power of ACT-UP.
And finally the miracle of modern therapy.

Commemorating #WorldAIDSday is an act of defiance against ideology driven policies that will end our progress to end the epidemic.

Another reason why it’s important not to obey illegal orders is because the people willing to give illegal orders will happily throw you under the bus for following them.

Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.
