I spent my career in the conservative legal movement. When the time for choosing came, most chose power over principle. I'm sticking with principle. And I welcome to the fight those who, just this week, for whatever reason, have reached their breaking point.

Ukraine asked for NATO membership, we said no because of Russian nukes. Ukraine asked for security guarantees, we said no because of Russian nukes. Ukraine asked for long-range weapons, we said no because of Russian nukes. So Ukraine got rid of Russian strategic nuclear bombers

Imagine assembling a secret armory piece by piece in enemy territory over the course of more than a year, programming all the attacks you need to make, doing a perfect exfil with no one the wiser, and then pushing a button and activating your pre-preparaed attack. That is what happened. Remarkable.

Statement from Buona Forchetta about the ICE raid last night. 💔

Military raid tactics. On US soil. This is shameful.

🇷🇺📹 Russian sources have released footage showing the use of the Chinese Low-Altitude Laser Defending System (LASS) to shoot down Ukrainian drones in the combat zone. These appear to be the first documented visuals of the Chinese laser system in operational use in Ukraine.

A MASSIVE ruling. Trump used the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose every tariff you’ve read about on a whole country/group of countries: Canada, Mexico, China (og+retaliatory), Liberation Day, etc. The judge just struck them all down www.cit.uscourts.gov/sites/cit/fi...

This Memorial Day weekend, the best way to honor the soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice is to honor and protect the freedoms and the democracy they died for.

“Democrats have never understood this. Liberal and even progressive media almost always approach things from a reactive, defensive posture, often litigating GOP-set narratives rather than creating their own.” And whatever you do. Do NOT search ‘cup of coffee’ on Bluesky. Seriously. Do. Not.

If you don't want to be compared to the Gestapo, one neat trick is to not engage in a campaign of terror around the country wherein you kidnap people off the streets to slave dungeons in accommodation of an autocratic fascist and his nationalist movement's desire for racial purity.

The democratic party leadership should take notes. Results not process are what matters to voters.

Shout out to the Ada County paramedic ambulance driver who put his lights on to stop traffic at the very busy Eagle and McMillan intersection to let a momma duck and her three ducklings cross the road. BZ.

This is a great idea. How can I help.

The importance of science and research

There are so many outrages in this 7-byline ticktock of the Trump deportations to El Salvador that you can’t just pull out one or two. This piece has it all: Subterfuge, deceit, incompetence and obvious flouting of judicial orders. Gift link wapo.st/4jHQfDn

New, from me: I am dorky enough to actually read (ok, skim) budgets, and have never seen anything like Trump’s, which has converted a formal and professional document into a propagandistic screed to justify draconian cuts. Lets take a look. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/budgets-as...

I believe this thread to be true. The zero sum game mentality is pervasively destructive and drives all MLM and pyramid Ponzi schemes including crypto. That it is embedded in the government now is disastrous for democracy and partly explains the global radical right wing shift.
