I believe in what I was taught in AMERICAN PUBLIC schools. The Constitution rules us, not a king. No one is above the law. We have a first amendment that guarantees me freedom of speech and the press, voting rights, civil rights, and human rights. (h/t YS)

The pursuit of Mark Kelly in the military-justice system sends a clear message to service members and veterans.

Terrific conversation here with one of my former students who's just published a brilliant book on how Colorado Springs became the "evangelical Vatican" and what came next.

How did Colorado Springs become the epicenter of evangelical capitalism? What's the link between the Air Force and Christian Conservatism? And how did Donald Trump become the Prayer Warrior In Chief? That's what Will Schultz and I are reckoning with this morning. Links below.

I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?
TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

The fact that only 3 (by my count) Republican members of Congress have spoken out about the Witkoff situation shows how thoroughly corrupted and compromised the entire party has become from top to bottom. None of this is about just Trump - it is the entire political party.

Does the BBC think it's improper for a speaker to state their opinion that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history?
Because I think almost all historians would readily agree that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.

This is totally unfair. Witkoff and Kushner had extensive help from the Russian foreign ministry, and they are trying to hog all the credit. SMH.
One man -- Marco Rubio -- serves this country as both National Security Adviser and Secretary of State.
And he was nowhere near the drafting of that Ukraine 'peace plan,' which was instead devised by the president's real-estate buddy and his son-in-law.
