Dark thoughts this morning…how must it feel to be Europe right now with Russian aggression ascending and Trump back in power. There will be no USA to storm the beaches this time…they will stand with the enemy. What has America done?

Never in my most cynical dreams did I imagine so many people willing to sell out their own country for money, attention, clout, out of spite, ignorance or hate.
That will remain the most heartbreaking part of this ordeal.
America is such a beautiful idea.
We are becoming unworthy of it.

Arizona gets more sun than almost anywhere in America. We should be the solar energy capital. Renewable energy like solar means lower energy bills and more good-paying jobs, but Trump is gutting these investments.

When you’re losing hope.
Take a deep breath.
Close your eyes.
Think back to when this guy was your president.
When you could associate the presidency with class, decency and integrity.
Now open your eyes
And fight like hell to get someone like him back in office again.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”
What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

With less than 5% of the files out there, the world is taking action.
By contrast, our inaction at home is deafening.
If not for the bravery of the survivors and a few in Congress, the files would never have seen the light of day.
Because the chief culprit happens to occupy the Oval Office.

Rep. Seth Moulton: My position on immigration: We need to prosecute ICE officers who broke the law, impeach Noem and abolish ICE. But more than that we need to incentivize legal immigration and give them a pathway to citizenship for those who are here legally.

Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet
