What we’re confronting.

They see people blown out of the water with no evidence of wrongdoing. They’re aren’t sorry nor are they satisfied with war crimes being inflicted by our government. They want maximum suffering, maximum lawlessness.

The cult is sick. We must remove them from power.

Hegseth told soldiers under his command in Iraq to ignore legal advice about when they were permitted to kill enemy combatants under their rules of engagement. The anecdote is contained in a book Hegseth wrote last year in which he sharply disparaged the Geneva and Hague Conventions.

Imagine being a career officer in the chain of command on Trump's boat bombings. You have deep moral and legal concerns about them. Your faith in leadership is shaky. Then you see Pete Hegseth tweet out a sadistic cartoon about it. Must be awful.

While "peace" negotiations continue, remember that Russia could simply stop the war at any time.

Trump says he is striking boats off Venezuela to stop drugs, mostly cocaine per reports.

Yet he just pardoned the Honduran ex-president who helped push more than 500 tons of cocaine into the U.S., took a $1 million bribe from El Chapo and bragged he would “stuff the drugs up the gringos’ noses.”

This FBI “pulse check” report on the dept under Patel and Bongino is a mixed bag - the fibbies love having no more sensitivity training but many hate going on ICE raids and think leadership is weak - but this anecdote is clearly gold: K$H Patel wearing the traditional FBI Director’s ladies clothes.

Doesn’t this rhetoric sound familiar?

In 1947, the U.S. Army released "Don't Be a Sucker" to show how a nation can be divided, reminding Americans that prejudice isn't natural and is created by those who gain from it.

Expiring ACA tax credits will hit small businesses especially hard. Meanwhile, 74% of small business owners are worried that their business won’t survive due to Trump’s tariffs.

Trump is crushing small businesses while doling out tax breaks to his big corporate donors.

Priorities.

There's a lot going on, and immigration law is notoriously labyrinthine. But it's still wild both that (1) the Trump administration is trying to treat millions of non-citizens who have lived here for years/decades as "arriving aliens"; & (2) *hundreds* of courts have (almost unanimously!) said "no":
195. The Immigration Detention Flood
The Trump administration's attempt to quietly—but massively—expand who can be detained pending their removal has been met with overwhelming pushback from a remarkably large number of district courts.

Reporter: Governor Walz called for the release of your MRI results

Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached.

Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at?

Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it.

Senator Kelly didn’t mince words with Dana Bash: if a second strike hit a burning boat with survivors he thinks the second US military strike on a suspected Venezuelan drug vessel constitutes a war crime! A former Navy captain calling it out matters.

This administration has gone off the rails.

Immigrants are being abducted & detained at their immigration hearings & appointments.

This fascism & #ICELawlessness is antithetical to democracy.

It's cruel & un just. Please consider becoming part of the #WeAintBuyingIt movement.
