We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

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."

Kelly: I really worry about those aviators, drone operators, special forces guys that are in the Caribbean right now striking these boats and whether or not this is legal..

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

So the question is, WHY are we building a Qatari Emeri Air Force "Facility" on a U.S. Air Force base? And by the way, why are they so keen on insisting that it's "not an Qatari Air Force base" without answering the question?
