Anyone still serving in the Trump Administration must reckon with the reality that, when the government has previously perpetrated egregious miscarriages of justice, history has not been forgiving to those who’ve gone along, however reluctantly. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Australia's leaders agreed on Monday to tougher gun laws after the country's worst mass shooting in almost three decades.

America? Just thoughts.
Y’all see how weak we are? We won’t even have a discussion on mass shootings!
Vote better!

Trump’s prosecutors in Comey case are shockingly bad lawyers. But, of course, it’s hard to find good lawyers willing to pursue baseless cases.

After NYS Young Republicans club was disbanded for praising Hitler, the NYC Young Republican club chapter is rolling out the red carpet for leaders of Germany’s Nazi-cosplaying AfD party.

I condemn it in the strongest of terms, as should my New York GOP colleagues. The AfD is not welcome in NY-10.

In America, we believe in healthy competition. That success happens because you had a good idea, you worked hard, and you inspired people.

Not because one giant company buys up their competitor to dominate an entire industry through currying favor with the president.

Steve Bannon ripped off his own followers with his ‘build the wall’ scam. Trump pardons him. Then photos come out showing him hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein AFTER he was charged with child trafficking, and yet he somehow has an audience because really MAGA stands for nothing.

ICYMI, new piece/thread from me on the remarkable new turn in the Abrego Garcia case. Everyone should read the judge's latest ruling. It goes deep. It neatly captures the essential lawlessness and state terror of the Trump era:
Remarkable how brutal the ruling against Trump on Abrego Garcia truly is: It details flagrant and malicious abuses of power all throughout. Trump and Stephen Miller were testing their ability to spread lawless state terror. But the court held the line. 1/

What’s happening in Indiana right now is so important & it’s about more than maps. When the GOP stand up to Trump publicly, loudly, & with visible support, it creates permission. Permission to dissent. Permission to leave. These moments crack the illusion of unanimity that keeps people trapped.

Aggressive tactics employed by Trump and his allies did not sit well with state lawmakers, who delivered a major political blow to national Republicans ahead of the midterms.
