1/ Five years ago yesterday, Donald Trump incited an insurrection against the U.S. Capitol. In the years since, his willingness to use violence and coercion has only expanded, as he seeks unchecked, king-like authority not only over the United States, but across the Western Hemisphere.

What the “Department of War” posted today is not normal. Publicizing an internal referral memo on social media before any review has occurred undercuts the neutrality expected in military justice and risks unlawful command influence. That should alarm anyone who cares about due process. #holdfast

A federal judge didn’t “steal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powers—she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Note for Democratic politicians: you don't have to start your condemnations of ICE raids with "We all want to catch violent criminals, but..." Just say "These raids have nothing to do with catching criminals and everything to do with terrorizing innocent minority groups."

In an attempt to invert a core principle of American governance, Miller claims those who state military and intelligence professionals must refuse illegal orders are “openly calling for an insurrection.” The duty to refuse unlawful orders is a requirement, grounded in the Constitution and the UCMJ.

When power is used without transparency, public safety erodes, a well-documented tool of autocratic governments. Everyone wants violent offenders removed, but indiscriminate raids and unmarked paramilitary teams make communities less safe, as Gov. Stein warns in this video.

Bovino’s rant fits the authoritarian indicators in our assessment: empowered security forces acting with impunity, militarized immigration raids, executive overreach through federalized enforcement, and loyalty-driven ops unmoored from oversight. His tone isn’t an outlier but a symptom.

Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness.
I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

Unless Fox News is willing to break down the Epstein emails, their audience will never see any reason to believe that Trump was anything except friendly with Epstein.
Much like the Russia investigation, they won’t accept it.

Attacking a federal district judge as an “activist” for issuing a lawful ruling is an assault on judicial independence. A democracy cannot function when executive agencies denigrate judges for doing their jobs.
