I would like to remember Medgar Evers today. And Melissa Hortman. And RFK Senior. And Leo Ryan. And George Tiller. And Martin Luther King. And Gabe Zimmerman. And all the kids at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. And all the people at the Pulse nightclub. Sorry if I am leaving anyone out.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

It is damning of so many institutions in the US that not only did Trump face no accountability for an attempted coup but also that he was rewarded for it by getting back in office to pardon the insurrectionists and fire the prosecutors

Republicans in Congress are currently figuring out how to pay for a tax cut for their wealthy donors by stripping away healthcare for 16 million Americans and gutting SNAP that provides food to families--with 40% of people on SNAP being children. GOP will literally kill people to help rich donors!

Trump is itching to declare Los Angeles in a state of insurrection. Legal precedent and scholarly analysis emphasize that insurrection is not merely protest or disagreement with government policy, rather is a violent, organized action aimed at undermining or overthrowing the established order.

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear:
The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here.

Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead.

This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

The inability of Americans to recognize GOP CRIME is serious mental defect!

The USA is being systematically attacked by the GOP CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE but few are able/willing to recognize the obvious.

The most disturbing thing to me isn't the sadism, destruction, and open corruption of the Trump-Musk regime, but the utter passivity with which the American people are accepting it. Nobody really seems to care and that frightens me to death. In that respect, we really are reliving 1930s Germany.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office.
