This is important. Networks should give this a lot of air. Only Palestinians have real power to end this war. When they rise up, take control and end Hamas there is nothing left to fight. They need leaders unlike Arafat, Abbas or Hamas who desire conflict to enrich themselves at expense of public.

It’s very discouraging to watch our country slowly re-learn the lessons that led to the end of segregation, among them that people who think they’re racially superior are nearly universally incompetent fools unable to face up to their own deficiencies and putting them in charge is suicide

Once again, I don’t know what anyone has seen in the last two months to suggest that the 2026/28 elections are going to be free, fair, & competitive by any normal standard of 🇺🇸 politics. This is obviously unconstitutional & a massive Article I crisis & yet who will stop it?

Trump just signed an exec order purporting to require a passport (or a few other docs) to register to vote. The president doesn't have the power to override a law passed by Congress. This is the SAVE Act but much worse. It is an illegal power grab that would block tens of millions from voting.

And, this is why Biden's preemptive pardons of non-crimes shouldn't have happened. It sets it up for the current jackalope to pardon all of his criminal entourage.
I hope Democrats learn from Merrick Garland’s mistakes and the failure of Obama’s “move on” strategy vis-a-vis Bush era war crimes, and understand that all these people ultimately need to go to prison.
