We should all applaud Judge Ho’s appointment of former Bush SG Paul Clement to present a perspective distinct from those of the indicted NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the Trumpservient DOJ prosecutor Emil Bove. Well played! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/n...

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Trump - with his devotion to Putin, abandonment of Ukraine, and lies about history- is the antithesis of everything Ronald Reagan stood for. He is aligning America with the enemies of the very freedom that generations have fought and died to defend.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

I welcome the agreement on our 16th package of sanctions. The EU is clamping down even harder on circumvention by targeting more vessels in Putin’s shadow fleet and imposing new import and export bans. We are committed to keep up the pressure on the Kremlin.

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

"Trump signals Ukraine should hold elections as part of Russia peace deal" (FT) Trump goes all out in support of Putin. This is worse than anybody but Putin could have imagined. Is Trump owned by Putin?

U. S. District Court Judge Dale Ho will hold a hearing tomorrow on whether dropping the federal prosecution of NYC’s corrupt mayor is in the “public interest.” It isn’t. Deference to DOJ is required. Abdication of judgment isn’t. If ever there was a case in which the judge should say no, it’s this.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

It is becoming increasingly clear that Trump's US doesn't support or represent Ukraine's interest, so it has no business to negotiate on behalf of Ukraine. The US delegation in Saudi Arabia is just a collection of clowns.

Trump's surrender in Ukraine isn't just feeding Ukraine to the Russian bear. He may very well be feeding Europe to the Russian bear. A strong majority of Americans admire the courage & tenacity of the people of Ukraine & want to support them. It is dishonorable for the USA to turn our backs on them.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.
