Remember all those times we couldn’t tell whether Biden’s social media posts pressuring the attorney general to prosecute republicans were meant to be DMs?

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

NYT:”Even for a president who has shattered the traditional norms of maintaining distance from the Justice Department, Mr. Trump’s unabashedly public and explicit orders to Ms. Bondi were an extraordinary breach of prosecutorial protocols that reach back to the days following the Watergate scandal.”

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Behind every powerful conservation story is someone brave enough to capture it.
For decades, the Jane Goodall Institute's own Bill Wallauer has helped people around the world see chimpanzees – and the forests they call home – through his photos and videos. 🎥

By trying to declare ANTIFA a terrorist organization, Trump is calling every person who fought against the nazis a terrorist. It’s very telling.

MORE MEDIA SANE-WASHING
Come on, @cnn.com, cut it out! Trump is BULLYING sovereign countries, and you’re calling it ‘teasing’ instead of what it actually is—threatening.

🚨🚨🚨WHY ISN’T THIS A BIGGER STORY?
The media lately ignored that Donald Trump secretly spoke with Vladimir Putin as many as SEVEN times since leaving office.
The conversations coincided with Trump pressuring Republicans to block military aid to Ukraine.
TRUMP IS A TRAITOR!!!

Homicide is down 30% year-to-date in DC this year. Violent crime down 35%.
Is this news to you? Probably, because most media focuses on stoking fear about crime through anecdote, rather than actual data

Another environmental catastrophe caused by Russians east of Crimea, after one of their decaying oil tankers broke apart on high seas 2 days ago, 35km of pristine coastline has been contaminated in true Russian style.
