JORDAN: Comey is where weaponization all started. 9 years ago he took the dossier--

BASH: But that's not what he's being prosecuted for

JORDAN: I'm just saying, you want to talk about weaponization, that's where it started

BASH: So this is retribution then

"Conversion therapy" is a polite name for something that isn’t conversion and isn’t therapy. It’s abuse.

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

Wondering if the gutting of the CDC, NOAA, FEMA, CISA, the purges of lifelong federal employees at all the other agencies, if that will wake up more Americans to how the path we're on isn't sustainable or ignorable.

When previously eradicated diseases make a comeback, when natural disasters strike

I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning.

There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.

It's not going to get better people. Why is he allowed to attack, drag away, and imprison US citizens, including children?? (Oh, right, he was a child rapist and has no problem with child torture. It's insane that he hasn't been stopped already - in any way possible!

⚠️ GRAPHIC CONTENT ⚠️
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office arrested a Black mother outside her child’s school after an officer confronted her about leaving her car illegally parked and unattended. This level of force on an unarmed woman in a school pick-up line is outrageous! 👇

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

The only thing Putin got, was Chechnya, but there is a sting in the tail, here.
Once Kadyrov realises there is a power vacuum in Russia, he will move in for the kill.
The end game is close, for Putin.

New in PN: He's never "just joking"

"Trump is an aspiring autocrat with obvious physical and mental issues, but Johnson and his Republican cronies are insulting our intelligence about it."

He's never "just joking"

And Republicans know it, even as they play dumb.
