Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.
I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.
I am not fearful — I am fearless.
We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law.
Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois.
And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.
This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Ossoff: Absolutely RFK JR should resign. He should have never been confirmed to begin with. He is utterly unqualified. This is someone who has embraced every piece of quackery and pseudoscience that he’s come across.

Listen to this man point out the insanity we are collectively treating as any other day in the USA
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"

According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago.
8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois.
And yet Trump is sending troops here.

Great. We all agree. So what are they going to do about it?
I asked this same question of lawyers at firms that capitulated —ironically when I was interviewed by 60 Minutes.
When democracy is at stake, don’t tell me how you feel. I don’t care what you think. Tell us what you will do.

CBS staff isn't buying Paramount's claim that Stephen Colbert's cancelation was a "financial decision" and had nothing to do with "other matters."

Pete Hegseth stripped Harvey Milk’s name from a Navy ship and ordered reviews of ships named for Harriet Tubman, Cesar Chavez, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. All were proudly built by our San Diego shipbuilders. This is about political retaliation, not patriotic service. Hegseth’s conduct is disgraceful.

These ICE agents are an embarrassment to law enforcement. Imagine being so afraid of being a public servant that they have to cover their face. Under no circumstances should any arresting officer be lawfully allowed to shield his/her identity.

“Trump Crossed the Line at Fort Bragg” Seriously @nytimes.com? Which line? Trump recognizes no lines. He is an evil Baby Huey whose only goal is to try to fill the black hole of his ego. He is a tyrant. Quit treating him as if he is just another politician. He is a threat to your existence.
