When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

Chris Murphy: "I sat with the kids for an hour. They saw things in these prisons they'll never forget. The bottom line is we have a constitutional obligation to only fund an administration that's operating lawfully. We cannot, we should not fund DHS if it committing these crimes."

We all know big corporations have too much influence in Washington. I've never taken a dime of corporate PAC money because Arizonans need to know their elected leaders are working for them. We need to put people first and get corporate money out of politics.

Bad Bunny didn’t just ask for a seat at the table.

He flipped it over and brought in a bigger one.

The fact that her reaction is almost certainly opportunistic makes this more, not less, significant.
GOP Sen Lummis says she’s changed her mind after the new Epstein revelations today: “Initially my reaction to all this was, I don’t care. I don’t see what the big deal is. But now I see what the big deal is. The members of Congress who were pushing this were not wrong!”

Leslie Wexner is one of the 10 co-conspirators named by the FBI during the 2019 arrest of Epstein.

He gave Epstein millions of dollars and the $70 million NYC townhouse.

Leon Black gave Epstein over $170 million.

Both men are alive.

How come they've never been asked to testify?

House republicans endorsed Trump's proposed HALF A TRILLION increase to the already bloated Pentagon.

This would starve funding for critical issues like housing, health care, & employment.
