Today I wrote about a dangerous development that has not gotten the attention it deserves. JD Vance is building a prosecutorial office in the White House that will operate under his and Trump's direct control. Sign up to support Democracy Docket's work and access premium content. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Can't help but feel like this is one of the reasons why the Constitution says If a dude in office does an insurrection, don't let that motherfucker hold office again
Bc clearly they cannot be trusted with power & control over the levers of government, & they do not care about democratic constraints

I'm so tired of the american military complex and the devastating real impacts of the lie of american exceptionalism.
I grieve that people in power who don't know peace in their own hearts spew their bitter bile upon the world. This is not the way to peace. War and violence are failures.

Many don't realize that the most vulnerable or immune compromised depend on the rest getting vaccinated properly to keep diseases from spreading out of control. It's not just “my body, my choice” when it comes to saving lives.
