Rep. Magaziner: “You promised America that you would go after the worst of the worst…You don’t seem to know how to tell the difference between the good guys and the bad guys. Go after the terrorists, do not go after veterans, marines, children, and U.S. citizens.”

Just want to point out that it is a crime to threaten to murder a Congressperson-- and a crime that absolutely falls outside the purview of any presidential immunity granted by the Supreme Court consistent with presidential authority.

Full stop, a crime and an impeachable offense.

No one is giving a malignant narcissist a peace prize.

They are chaos creators and destroyers.

Any social benefit they perform is serendipitous in their singular, self-serving, deceptive, narcissistic and psychopathic pursuit of omnipotent power and control.

If you look closely, you can see signs of GOP lawmakers fearing the long-term political consequences of paying more attention to Trump's demands than to the voices of their own constituents - or consciences.

To understand Hegseth’s announcement of impunity for misconduct, you must understand that Eddie Gallagher is the model. This is what he means by “warrior ethos.” Trump may have even selected Hegseth because of his similar appearance to Gallagher.

Remember?

Trump is a billionaire who is trying to take your health care away by pitting you against brown people who are not even eligible for ACA subsidies. He wants vulnerable white people fighting vulnerable brown people, so that no one pays attention to the billionaire trying to consolidate power.

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

DOJ has sued 8 states for refusing to turn over their full, unreacted voter files. My team has now filed motions to defend those states against this attack on federalism in 6 of those states: ME, MI, MN, NH, OR and PA.

I suggest that tomorrow DOJ monitor the docket in the remaining two: CA and NY.
