There has to be actual, physical punishment for a lot of these people. They're not going to be shamed into doing better and without the specter of suffering they will simply do the same again at the earliest opportunity.

Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life?

KIMMEL: “That sonofabitch… I never imagined we’d have a president like this, and I hope we never have another president like this again… celebrating hundreds of Americans losing their jobs - he took pleasure in that. The opposite of what a leader is supposed to be.”

Senator Tammy Duckworth calls on the incompetent and dangerous Defense Sec Pete Hegseth to resign. Thank you, Senator, and please go a step further to halt the menace he poses to our country and the world: IMPEACH HEGSETH.

Tammy Duckworth @duckworth.senate.gov · 8d

If this deeply degrading, wasteful and dangerous stunt proved anything, it’s that the best thing Hegseth can do to strengthen our military is resign in disgrace.

Immediately.

The Government is now shut down, but apparently nobody called the school in the Bronx that had come to the Capitol for their tour today, so they're getting the treat of a lifetime since AOC agreed to give them the tour herself!
I’m loving this for all of them!

U.S. cities are not “training grounds” for the military and U.S. citizens are not the “enemy from within”.

This is incredibly dangerous and is not what our military is trained for or meant to do. It’s authoritarianism, plain and simple.

Trump offers "dangerous" U.S. cities as military "training grounds"

He told military leaders "we have to handle" the so-called "enemy from within."

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hold on a second. Answer the question. As Speaker, do you believe it's appropriate to use American cities as training grounds for the military, calling those people 'the enemy within'?

JOHNSON: I'm not comment on your characterization of what the president said.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.
