Moulton: I have heard that a lot of officers are considering resigning their commissions because they question whether this is constitutional—whether they’re violating their oath to protect and defend the Constitution, not the president, by carrying out these orders. These are active discussions

Let’s bomb Iran into freedom while denying healthcare to veterans based off political beliefs and liberate Iranian women from a misogynistic regime while arresting Americans for having miscarriages. If moral standards were applied equally, the US is prime for regime change…

Trump is back to selling scams—this time, it's a $499 phone. He’s doing what he does best: turning the presidency into a business deal. Republicans spent years investigating the Bidens despite no evidence of corruption or pay to play. (1/2)

If they’re going to charge municipal officials with assault for requesting to see a warrant, I don’t see the benefit of ensuring all anti-ICE actions are orderly or “peaceful.” You can be an elected official calmly invoking procedural norms, they don’t care.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.

Trump says mass deportations are urgent—but not if they mess with his donors’ pockets. ICE was told to back off farms & hotels 'cause it was bad for business. But LA and Chicago? Open season. Please be for real—this is the weaponization of government against cities that refuse to bow down to him.

One of the more devastating fact checks I've read. Every single claim made by Sen. Scott about CBO was wildly false. My favorite was his claim that CBO also committed major tax scoring errors in the 1930s and 1960s. CBO did not even exist until 1974.

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.
