Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.
If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.

I made my brother collards for his very first time and he LOVED THEM. Took a great bowl for leftovers. So did MiL.

This recipe is also CHEAP. Especially if you add cannellini beans for cheap protein.

I don't see how Tesla's Model 3 can survive if Benz can offer an alternative EV this cheap, with this kind of performance, on top of the 15% tariff that it's charged in the US.
Imagine what this model does to Tesla in Europe, where Benz pays no tariffs.

THIS. I know many are judgemental about gossip, but what has happened here w/ Olivia Nuzzi and Ryan Lizza can be attributed to where we are now.
They could have chosen to stop it, but no. Ambition, obsession, personal revenge and book deals were more important to them.
And now we have DT & RFK.

People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

National Guard troops don't sign up to be used as political pawns. They sign up to serve their country, not needlessly deploy to American cities to pick up garbage. These two soldiers should be alive right now and at home with their families for Thanksgiving. I'm furious.

Kash Patel never learns and needs to stay off social media and do his job. Or at least try to.
So embarrassing.

As you know two National Guardsmen were sadly shot in DC and are in critical condition. Kash Patel, a moron, gets up and speaks in the presser, vowing to seek and prosecute those responsible. But the lone gunman was shot. He's in custody. There are no other suspects. What a rube.

This has relevance for the whole debate over Trump giving "illegal orders." Very possible that Trump's commands for prosecutions are unlawful ones.

What about Trump's corrupt orders to DOJ to prosecute his enemies? Here it's complex, but there are scenarios in which these orders could be illegal. His lackeys might be breaking the law in carrying them out.
