Illinois’ Democratic governor JB Pritzker possesses the kind of fighting spirit we need take on and topple a tyrant like Trump. Pritzker is teeming with fierce opposition to the madness of MAGA — precisely what Americans need at this dangerous point in our nation’s history. In a fiery…

House Judiciary's Jamie Raskin: "This is a drastic escalation and dangerous new front in Trump's authoritarian campaign of trying to bully, intimidate, and impeach judges who won't follow his dictates. We must do whatever we can to defend the independent judiciary in America."

Trump could make one call and Garcia would be on his way back to America, where he belongs. Trump's refusal to bring Garcia back as the courts ordered, warrants his immediate removal from office.

I know what proper security protocols look like—this isn’t it. NSA Mike Waltz using Signal for war planning & now we learn he uses his personal Gmail for official biz? That’s not just reckless-it’s lazy. These aren’t rookie mistakes-they’re dangerous, deliberate choices. That ego is out of control.

Trump hates American democracy. He hates open societies. He’s jealous of Xi and Putin. He wants America to be like Russia and he’s doing everything he can to make it so.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

I was ripped to shreds on #CNN for standing up for the safety of the American military before Hegseth was hired. Told I was a “disgrace” who should be “ashamed of myself”, berated through the commercial break and threatened with defamation. Look where we are now.

The Oversight Committee must immediately call in Hegseth to testify under oath. This huge national security blunder by the Trump Administration has to be investigated. Then, Hegseth must resign or be fired. In just two months, his incompetence has made our country much less safe.

I voted for Chuck in 98 & again 04. It’s time. Unfortunately his recent lack of action has so compromised Senate Dems that he can not be in leadership for the next round of budget negotiations. His CNN interview showed he is entirely clueless as to the scope of perfidy Rs are capable of. Go now!
