These are dangerously political new waters. Without precedent. I can’t remember a recruiting ad with ANY SecDef—or even a President. I’m sure someone can dig through the archives and check. x.com/danlamothe/s...

“Protected class" began as an aid to the disadvantaged, an express attempt to combat discrimination based on characteristics such as race and sex. But decades later, it has become a tool for the oppressor. Read how President Trump twisted the law to protect white men.

We’re still standing strong. Democracy demands daylight. MAGA deals despotism in the depths of darkness. We’re fighting 1,000 pages of top-down class warfare against the American majority.

Australia’s prime minister is headed to China to visit President Xi Jinping later this year. Canadian PM Mark Carney should consider doing the same as Canada looks to diversify trade away from the United States.

Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary, bungled answers on Tuesday about habeas corpus, incorrectly saying that the legal right of people to challenge their detention by the government was actually the president’s “constitutional right” to deport people.

Mock this all you want but a hallmark of a totalitarian regime is holding "elections" where the winning candidate wins over 90% of the vote. This is not just the ramblings of a senile old man. This is where Trump wants to take us.

AP reports >> Immigration authorities appear to have begun deporting migrants from Myanmar and Vietnam to South Sudan.... [Attorneys state] those removals would violate a court order against deporting people to countries other than their homelands without an opportunity to file court challenges.

President Trump is funding a genocide, too. Just as President Biden did. Our tax dollars have been used by both administrations to rip Palestinian children apart. This is what should upset us, not those with the courage to call it out.

“Habeas corpus is the legal principle that requires the government to provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people. If not for that protection, the government could simply arrest people, including American citizens, and hold them indefinitely for no reason.”

This is the weaponization of government—full stop. If you speak out against them—or in this case do your job—they will come for you. What we’re seeing with @replamonica.bsky.social is a political stunt, and we won’t stand for it.

“We’re starting to see some of the worst-case scenarios play out almost in front of us. At current warming of 1.2C, sea level rise is accelerating at rates that, if they continue, would become almost unmanageable before the end of this century, [which is] within the lifetime of our young people.”

Never mind, who's the Dems contender for 2028. Focus on who'll step up for 2026. If members of Congress (and us) don't step up to this challenge in 2026, 2028 won't matter.

I am so done with Morning Joe. They actually invited Tapper on the show this morning. Done! Biden is history and what's going on now is a raid on our democracy by a convicted felon, his Project 2025 cronies, and an impotent Repube Congress. Can only get the truth from Maddow, Hayes and Psaki!

Nearly final CBO score of the GOP reconciliation plan is out. Their bill would cut program spending by $1.5 trillion but spend $312 billion more on defense, ICE, etc., for a total of $1.2 trillion in spending cuts. Plus $3.6 trillion in tax cuts. For a total of $2.4 trillion in higher deficits.
