Many of the policies enacted by the Trump administration in its first 100 days were initially laid out two years ago in the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025. David Graham’s new book “The Project” details its origins and sweeping goals.

I'm so old, I remember when Republicans used to hyperventilate about a menacing federal government consisting of "jackbooted thugs." It turns out it wasn't a principled hatred of "jackbooted thugs" they were expressing, it was just jealousy that THEY weren't the ones in the jackboots.

The reason I do what I do? I know the DNC can't fund every rural Democrat...but I want to. I am the Executive Director of Blue Missouri and we are the only organization who sends money to down-ballot, rural Dems. We don't just "endorse" them. We fund them. You can join us! bluemissouri.org

Trump’s latest threat against me is as real as his 'perfect' phone calls and 'biggest crowds ever.' More whining, more victimhood, zero follow-through. Either do it or keep crying, fatso. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-tantru...

This is how our government has been corrupted:  1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.  2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.  3) Donors make a huge profit.  4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall. I will never bow down.

Trump is dismantling democracy right in front of us. He operates on the principle that people will think that if he does it openly and in public, there can't be anything wrong with it. Do not be deceived.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Donald, what, you had to bring a guy from the Russian state media in to watch you try and beat up Zelenskyy—and you thought that would make you look good? It made you look like the crook you are. Zelenskyy is a man that you will never be; he’s a genuine hero.

If today’s Oval Office meeting was supposed to make Trump look tough, he is sadly mistaken. Trying to extort and humiliate a democratic ally invaded by Russia is a disgusting display of weakness and fealty to Putin.

So the GOP is just currently covering up potential sex crimes against children by one of their members and instead of releasing the report, they are trying to make that person the Attorney General of the United States? Do we have that right?
