We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Don’t let them pull the wool over your eyes and call this China trade “deal” a masterful stroke of genius – this is just another day of chaos in an administration that’s jerking around lives and livelihoods with absolutely no plan.

This is why a president corrupts a Justice Department.

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit. While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall. Hello?

Trump's only move. Blackmail. He's doing it to everyone: law firms, companies, colleges, states, Canada, NATO, Ukraine. He was impeached in the first term for it. It's the only "art of the deal" he's ever known: strongman mafioso extortion. He'll re-run the same play forever until America collapses.

Casar: You can quickly explain Doge with just two numbers. First: $8 million a day. That’s how much Elon Musk collects in federal government contracts. Second: $65 a day. That’s how much the average senior—someone who has worked their entire life—gets from Social Security.…

Musk says millions of dead people get Social Security. That's a lie. Here's the truth: 30,000 people die a year waiting for an understaffed Social Security to approve disability benefits. Musk's plan to cut Social Security's staff by 50% will make this tragic reality even worse.

Excellent overview by @brianklaas.bsky.social of the ongoing destruction of American democracy and how to save it. The time is now: "it’s far easier to save a democracy than to resurrect one." www.forkingpaths.co/p/is-america...

On 6 June 1944, while Americans were fighting at Omaha Beach, Canadians were fighting at Juno Beach. Our brothers, who fought and died by our side – who helped us defeat Fascism, are not our enemy. They are our true friends. Canadians are our brothers and sisters and I stand with them 100%.

“Trump and Vance appear to have entered the meeting with the intention of berating Zelensky and drawing him into an argument as a pretext for the diplomatic break,” Jonathan Chait writes: theatln.tc/ejdvMpQT

Three years ago, this man saw his country invaded and ravaged. According to figures released by Kyiv and U.N. statistics, the death toll stands at 148,359 as of Feb. 13. His lion’s heart and love of country and democracy beats a suit any day, all day, in my book. I stand with him and Ukraine. 🇺🇦

Tonight is the Mansfield-Metcalf dinner for @mtdems.bsky.social; 2 public service giants. Thinking of Mansfield's tombstone at Arlington. Nothing about Senate Majority Leader, Ambassador, or US Rep. Simply: Pvt USMC. Thanks Mike. You made us proud. #mtnews #Montana

"More distasteful than President Donald Trump’s incessant lying is what the lies indicate: After years of yelling that the 'Russia hoax' was a witch hunt, Trump is now openly colluding with Vladimir Putin." ICYMI @ninajankowicz.com on Trump's Russia disinformation:

Watching Putin’s little stooges try to bully Zelenskyy in our goddamned White House is pretty repulsive.

DOGE is attacking federal agencies that protect millions of Americans from financial predators, infectious diseases, natural disasters, and air crashes. Once again: this has nothing to do with making the government "efficient" — and everything to do with who it works for.

Old friend just laid off by USDA, 1 mos short of his probationary period as senior researcher. Brilliant person who left a tenured faculty position several yrs ago to join USDA. Bright early-career researchers also being laid off. USDA is terminating a generation of highly-qualified scientists.
