🌵I stand with Senator Mark Kelly, Capt., USN (Ret).
Following a review (by Pete Hegesth for speaking out against Trump), that could demote Senator Mark Kelly's Navy Captain’s rank and reduce his retirement pay, the senator from Arizona has sued Hegseth asking a federal court to block the review. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

THESE HORRENDOUS TIMES
ICE ATTACKS

Tonight
I salute my Senator Mark Kelly
He announced he has filed civil suit against the Department of Justice & Pete Hegseth

"The veteran said he saw volunteering as an ICE observer as another way of serving his country.

'It’s the most American thing to do: not to be scared of people trying to scare you...

This is a pivotal moment we’ll be asked about by our kids, "Where were you?"

They say they’re monitoring ICE arrests. Feds say they’re breaking the law.
The fatal shooting of Renée Good last week, as ICE officers and residents faced off on a Minneapolis street here, has brought new attention to ICE monitoring.

Trump is going to use DOJ/FBI to try to steal the 2026 election. My legal team and I will fight back in court but we all have a role to play.

Tomorrow, I will offer my thoughts on what Trump is up to and what we need to do now. Subscribe to Democracy Docket for free to find out. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

If Trump regrets not using the military to steal the 2020 election, does anyone really think he won't do it in 2026?

We need a pro-democracy movement that is prepared to protect free and fair elections. I'll have more thoughts on this tomorrow. Subscribe to Democracy Docket now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

I also must say that it's a bit rich that Trump and his DOJ think it's a good idea to gin up a bullshit investigation about supposed illegalities in ... {checks notes} … renovating a federal building

Good to see #IranProtests on the streets of Dublin, the crowd chanting 'Down with the Dictator!'

A sign reads: “No internet, no freedom, stop killing our women.”

If ICE had stayed within their legal jurisdiction and authority Renee would still be alive today.

They had no legal right to approach her vehicle and yell at her to get out or move the car.

She was not impeding their operation.

They have zero authority for local traffic laws.

While Americans are struggling to afford health care and groceries, Trump is more concerned about sending $100,000 each to the citizens of Greenland.

I guess it's Denmark First now.

People sometimes say that I am part of the resistance. I always correct them. I am part of the opposition. There is a big difference.

The president of the United States is extorting the Federal Reserve Board Chairman by threatening criminal prosecution if he doesn't lower interest rates.

DOJ is compromised, legacy media is cowed and Big Law is AWOL. As I wrote last year: "We are on our own."
