The pardon power is a useful reminder that Trump and his minions are willing to use parts of the constitution against itself. That has been the practice of other authoritarian movements seeking to subvert free governments. www.thebulwark.com/p/pardon-the...
Pardon the Corruption
Trump’s blanket pardons for stop-the-steal illegality aren’t only about settling scores from past elections. They’re about laying the groundwork to subvert future ones.

I'm about to vote on the SAME Republican budget proposal for the 6th time.
Why?
Instead of working with Democrats to lower health care costs, Republicans are forcing us to vote over and over again on a budget that would let 15 million Americans lose their coverage.

Jersey, did you know Trump is targeting our state? Delaying funding for the Hudson Tunnel Project, which is a vital part of the project to double rail capacity between New Jersey and New York City.
Stopping these funds, is illegal and completely unacceptable.

That doesn’t change the fact that the vast majority of gun (and political) violence has been perpetuated by right wingers.

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.
Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.
We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.

We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life
