We must fight for the freedoms of future generations. They are depending upon us.

What I get from the Biden's-decline book is a vivid picture of the self-reinforcing culture of denial/deflection that builds up within the closest circle around a frail president. So the takeaway isn't "Democrats must atone." It's that it's surely happening again, to a greater extreme, right now.

You have to love this. Harvard pushes back against the would-be autocrat, and they immediately discover they own one of the original (arguably) anti-autocratic statements of all time. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

I would like him to let his fans know that they will only be able to buy 2 guns (much like their daughters can only buy 2 dolls).

Pritzker: As a Ukrainian American Jew who built a holocaust museum… let me say this to Donald Trump: Stop tearing down the constitution in the name of my ancestors. Do not claim that your authoritarian power grabs are about combatting anti-semitism.

Was Yale Law School handing out degrees to people this clueless or is he just conveniently ignoring facts that don’t fit his narrative? (Or two things can be true.)

🙌🏼 I’m not sure who had the amazing idea to invite this constitutional lawyer to a senate hearing that intended to prove Biden colluded with Meta to censor conservatives, but she took the opportunity to speak truth to power ✊🏼 on the hypocrite 👑 KING OF FREE SPEECH, Donald Trump, himself. 👏🏼 Brava!!

Having lived in this country for six decades, I’m kind of surprised I didn’t notice the US being “pillaged and raped” by other nations. But I guess the president knows a lot more about rape than I do.
