Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.
Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.
Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.
It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump ignited a violent mob to attack the Capitol and disrupt the peaceful transfer of power.
Last year, Donald Trump pardoned over 1,500 of those insurrectionists.

Wondering why your utility bills are getting so expensive?
AI could be a big reason why.
AI data centers cost a ton to upkeep, and big tech companies are passing on those costs to local communities.

All because Donald Trump wants to kill cheap, renewable energy.

Trump has revoked legal status for at least 1.6 million immigrants over the past year by cancelling programs like TPS and student visas.
Remember: these are people who entered the country legally.
Trump never cared about “legal immigration" — just inflicting cruelty.

Yes, Trump will veto it. But signing this bill must be a campaign issue for any 2028 Dem candidate.
