In a memo John Roberts wrote just 4 yrs out of law school, he said the “time may be ripe to reconsider the existence” of independent agencies & bring them back into the executive branch. Now he’s poised to end what he has long called “a constitutional anomaly.”

Czech President Pavel warns: “If Putin wins in Ukraine, we all lose.” He compared secret U.S.-Russia talks on territorial concessions to the 1938 Munich Agreement, calling them dangerously familiar. Letting Russia emerge victorious from this war, he stressed, would be a defeat for all of Europe.

It sucks so hard, but don't turn away! Bear witness & share it!

Make sure no one you know can claim ignorance.

The reason we’ll never see the unredacted Epstein files, even though he was a vile pedophile, is that he was also a key link from the Silicon Valley tech bros to Vlad Putin, with familiar names such as Pete Thiel, Elon Musk, Steve Bannon, JD Vance and Don Trump among his clients—all useful idiots.

A reminder:

This isn’t ideology
This isn’t incompetence
This isn’t business as usual
This isn’t temporary
This isn’t normal
This isn’t ethical
This isn’t legal
This isn’t meant to be popular
This isn’t meant to be good for anyone

This has been a strategic attack against the U.S.

Act accordingly

If the Sep. 2 boat really had "narco-terrorists" on board, questioning the survivors would have been a way to learn about how the organization worked, where more drugs were stashed, etc. But this isn't a counter-terrorism campaign. It's a shooting gallery with helpless targets.

Some here say that Trump voters who say "I didn't vote for this" are lying - they knew.

While it's been glaringly OBVIOUS for decades who Trump was, I believe these voters - they didn't know, because they are STUPID.

And now we have to depend on those STUPID people to switch and vote D in 2026. 🙄

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.
