Actual reporters by and large are doing their jobs and informing the public. The same can’t be said of the Republican Congress. There’s no outrage dark or damaging enough to spur it to action. It is an epic, ongoing institutional failure.

Friendly reminder. In the United States, criminals are entitled to due process. Even if you pay hush money rig an election, steal top secret documents, or incite a mob to overthrow the government; no matter how egregious your crimes, you’re entitled to due process.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

I have never seen an American president disrespect a leader of another country like Trump just did. That is not how peace talks are conducted. It was extremely difficult to watch. He should be removed from office immediately, Vance, too. Prayers for Ukraine.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?
