The so-called Defense Secretary has ordered 400 books removed from the Naval Academy library. This outrageous ban includes works about Slavery and the Holocaust, but not a book written by Adolf Hitler. The effort to whitewash our history must be reversed and Pete Hegseth fired IMMEDIATELY.

My latest: "All Hail the New Authoritarian America" In America, you can now wear a MAGA hat, storm the U.S. Capitol, and attack police officers, but you can't commit a thought crime, be a legal immigrant, or criticize the dear leader. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

We elected a man everyone who matters in this country knew was an idiot. The bulk of them refused to say so openly and directly — either because they thought he could do something for them or because there are political and journalistic norms against speaking that way.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Well, Donald, in just three months, you’ve turned your nation into a spectacle of disgrace. You think Canada is the nastiest country you’ve ever dealt with, yet you kiss up to Vladimir Putin, a war criminal...

Remembering when in December Trump announced: "The media is tamed down a little bit. They like us much better now, I think. If they don’t, then we’ll just have to take them on again, and we don’t want to do that." It is amazing how right he was and how cowardly so many of them have become.

Pete Hegseth recklessly disclosed sensitive military attack plans that jeopardized American lives. And previously embarrassed us in front of our NATO allies in Brussels. Why does this guy still have a job?

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Listen everyone. I’ve see classified stuff before. This in the Atlantic is the kind of stuff that gets the highest classification. I had to have TS clearance to hear the names of the people we targeted in Iraq when i was with TF16 and 17. And still some names were withheld until op was over….

A group of Dem senators are demanding answers from the Trump admin about the war plans Signal debacle: 1. What disciplinary action will be taken against those involved in the "Houthi PC small group" Signal chain? Will you revoke their security clearances? What security training had they received?

Swalwell: Hegseth is still the Secretary of Defense? This moron texts out our war plans, putting our soldiers at risk, and he’s not gone? Every one on that chat—they just fire off texts not knowing who is on the chat? They all should be fired if they don’t resign.

This is apparently the best the official DOD “rapid response” account can do in response to the Houthi PC Small Group story.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Am I the only one who finds it absurd watching a bunch of Repubs with ten-figure bank accounts tell grandmas they don’t need their Social Security checks? They can jet around on your dime, but you receiving the Social Security you paid for is “wasteful.” Get out of our face!
