The Civil Rights Division is going to charge a Black Man under the Ku Klux Klan Act on MLK day.

Do I have that right?

As always, Dr. King's message is right on time. Today calls on all of us to hear his wisdom and put it into action.

TIM WALZ: Do not take the bait. Do not take the bait. Do not allow them to invoke the Insurrection Act. Do not allow them to invoke martial law.

Tim Walz is mobilizing the MN National Guard, and reminds Minnesotans that the guard "is OURS - our teachers and our neighbors." He asks Minnesotans to respect them. "They're there to protect you and your constitutional rights. They don't wear masks."

To all of you who thought, "What could go wrong electing a stupid, immature, vulgar, child rapist with advanced dementia and no impulse control as our president?":

I don't like to say, "I told you so," but I'm willing to enthusiastically make an exception.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Like this is a surprise? But of course it’ll get no traction and the disgusting #GOP will continue to look the other way.

Today we remember the thousands of Americans who died in the attack on Pearl Harbor 84 years ago. Nearly half of those lost were aboard the USS Arizona, and I remember what a moving experience it was when Gabby and I visited the memorial. We’ll never forget their sacrifice.

Trump’s golf habit has already cost American taxpayers nearly $71 million since his return to the Oval Office in January, and is expected to total more than $300 million by the time his second term ends.
Trump’s Golf Habit Is Costing Taxpayers a Fortune

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.
These people have found their health care at the center of a shutdown showdown
