If you need to go somewhere in your state, please stay in a group so you’re not alone and use your cellphone cameras if necessary.

Republicans failure to hold Trump to account makes them no different than the Chinese Communist party,Putin’s United Russia Party, Mussolini’s fascists & Hitler’s Nazis. The party comes first. Not the people, not the nation, not democracy, not anything. My latest:

The question isn’t whether Democrats should or will impeach Trump. The question is why won’t Republicans?
Since Trump came down that infamous escalator, Republicans have missed every off ramp on the highway to fascism. They will protect Trump to hold on to power no matter the cost to Americans.

A woman is dead in Minneapolis after ICE agents opened fire.
I don’t need to be a use-of-force expert to say this plainly: she did not need to be shot.
And no fair investigation is coming from the same system that wanted this confrontation in the first place.

They Didn’t Come to Protect Minneapolis. They Came to Provoke It.
A woman is dead after an encounter with ICE agents in Minneapolis, and the rush to justify it tells us everything about where this country is headed — toward provocation, federalized force, and invest

I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day.

Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me.

The WHITE HOUSE President Trump took decisive action to pardon January 6 defendants who were unfairly targeted, over-charged, and used as political examples. They were not protected by the leaders who failed them. They were punished to cover incompetence. On his first day back in office, January 20, 2025, President Trump issued sweeping blanket pardons and commutations for nearly 1,600 patriotic Americans prosecuted for their presence at the Capitol-many mere trespassers or peaceful protesters treated as in-surrectionists by a weaponized Biden DOJ. He fully pardoned most, commuted sentences, and ordered immediate release of those still imprisoned, ending years of harsh solitary confinement, denied due process, and family separation for exercising their First Amendment rights. THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS PAID THE PRICE FOR POLITICAL FAILURES THEY DID NOT CREATE. Since January 6, 2021, Nancy Pelosi spent over 3 years and nearly $20 million in taxpayer funds on her partisan Select Committee, producing a scripted TV spectacle to fabricate an "insurrection" narrative and pin all blame on President Trump. Video and audio recordings, including unaired HBO footage from her own daughter, show Nancy Pelosi repeatedly acknowledging responsibility for the cat-

DNC chair somehow capable of a more full throated statement than any Democratic leader in congress
kenmartin.bsky.social Ken Martin @kenmartin.bsky.social · 11d
My full statement on Trump’s unconstitutional military operations in Venezuela:
Trump promised peace, but has delivered war. For months, the Trump administration has escalated conflict in Venezuela with unconstitutional and illegal strikes, and lied to the American people. Now, Trump has committed the United States to running another country for the foreseeable future while Americans foot the bill for regime change.  Today, Trump finally said the quiet part out loud. The justification for this war isn’t about stemming the flow of drugs. This is about regime change. This is about enriching oil corporations and billionaires. Congress must immediately assert its constitutional authority over American military action—the same authority Trump’s own chief of staff said he needs. This is the worst kind of betrayal from Trump. He committed the United States to an uncertain role in South America with an indeterminate timeline. As Trump’s influence over the country and the world wanes, he is ready and willing to endanger Americans and abandon the Constitution as a last-ditch effort to hold on to power and relevancy.
