Reporters who fact-check Trump to his face are not “stupid”, they are not “piggies”, and they are not “ugly”. They are doing their jobs, and doing it under pressure most of us will never experience.

We should be grateful for their service. I appreciate their courage now more than ever.

Realizations that are just hitting me that ought to have been obvious: you can’t have a high trust society in a high corruption environment

Running for every seat possible, up and down the ticket, is first on the list. Make sure not one seat is left vacant

Every election in 2025 (specials & the ones that just happened) Dems have way over performed. Momentum is real.

Nov 2026 feels like an eternity BUT the time is NOW to start running

And instead support Shawn Harris who is her Democratic challenger
I am begging America to not be stupid enough to embrace a racist and an antisemite because Donald Trump thinks she's a meanie. Just grab some popcorn and watch the Nazis fight.

More Military personnel are calling legal military non-profit agencies seeking advice for orders they received.
The DOJ has issues a order that all orders are legal & the personnel are immune from prosecution. Right there is the red flag, the prosecution immunity.

Too cute by half.
DoD on legality of the boat strikes:

"Military personnel are legally obligated to follow lawful orders and as such are not subject to prosecution for following lawful orders."

"Lawful orders" in this formulation being a function of what POTUS and his pliant OLC say.

My colleague, Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva STILL has yet to be sworn in. She’s the 218th signature on the Epstein petition. Instead of swearing her in, Johnson once again claims politics, which leaves us wondering—what is he hiding?
