Robert E. Lee and his men killed over 110,000 US Army soldiers. Here's why that same Army must rename its military bases after him. by Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth

Me when a Senator says he's gonna hold the Trump administration accountable

James Madison supported giving Congress the power to impeach the president, because a president "might lose his capacity after his appointment. He might pervert his administration into a scheme of peculation or oppression. He might betray his trust to foreign powers."

substack.com/@lynnsauvage... Jimmy Kimmel is a true patriot.

Rep. Garcia: “This is…Trump’s playbook. He doesn’t care about the safety of the American people. He fuels hate & fear. It’s no coincidence that Donald Trump is fueling chaos. At the same time, he’s advancing legislation which the American people know is completely toxic and harmful to this country.”

Rep. Pat Ryan: "Mr. Secretary, I don't say this lightly but I have to say this on the record: I think your tenure as Secretary of Defense has been shameful and weak and you should resign."

Note the point @padilla.senate.gov was making when he was assaulted by Noem's team: That she keeps cycling thru six cases as her justification for the gulag.

Gov. Pritzker: “It's wrong to deploy the National Guard and active duty Marines into an American city over the objection of local law enforcement, just to inflame a situation and create a crisis.”

Going to a protest this weekend? See a Proud Boy? Or an Oath Keeper? Let me know!

If you haven’t heard of Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove… you have now. When she stepped out from the back without missing a beat, I knew it was on🔥 @kamlager-dove.house.gov

73-year-old Stephen James Hubbard, a retired American teacher, who was captured by Russian occupiers in Izium, Kharkiv region, is being tortured in prison because of his citizenship — NYT Mr. Hubbard was accused of manning a checkpoint and fighting for Ukraine⤵️

A piece I wrote on cyber security for @thebulwark.com. www.thebulwark.com/p/slashing-c...

“Young soldiers make mistakes. But if senior officers remain silent, what lesson will those young men and women take from what happened?” says @radiofreetom.bsky.social. I’m embarrassed by those troops & their leaders, and they all ought review the army’s rules. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

@flynorse.com Please check your DMs on Twitter for a question I need answered. Thank you.

Bukele's crackdown on journalists, dissent and free speech under his regime's so-called "Foreign Agents Law" is destroying any semblance of democracy in El Salvador. It's no surprise that this cowardly authoritarian has found a friend and co-conspirator in Donald Trump.

"I have many more questions than answers. If that’s going to frustrate you, maybe skip this one. But if you’re okay with uncertainty, you’ve come to the right place." So: how do we think about protests? Today's Triad from @jvl.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/the-protes...

Update

Lindsey Graham is as vulnerable as he has ever been because he is as unpopular as he has ever been.

open.substack.com/pub/rorycell... On Sunday afternoon as I sat at my laptop I asked myself a tricky question - why do I carry on working?

ESCoE Advisory Board member @bartvanark.bsky.social in conversation with ESCoE Leadership Executive member @dianecoyle1859.bsky.social and Jan Mischke on the productivity slowdown.

Major General Randy E. Manner, former Acting Vice Chief, National Guard Bureau statement to Fox News: "This is an inappropriate use of the National Guard and is not warranted.”

My dear friend Tasneem in Gaza sent me the message below. Please give at the link, if you care to. The civilians in Gaza rely on our donations to survive, even more so during the aid blockade. www.gofundme.com/f/help-tasne...

He shouldn’t have taken the post down. He’s a reporter. And he was reporting facts.
