"A culture that does not grasp the vital interplay between morality and power, which mistakes management techniques for wisdom, which fails to understand that the measure of a civilization is its compassion, not its speed or ability to consume, condemns itself to death." ~Chris Hedges

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

This is the greatest non-handshake since Wayne Bridges / John Terry (though Doug Emhoff came close with Bruce Fischer). That’s what happens when you side with dictators against your allies.

US Defense Secretary shared sensitive information in second Signal chat

"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E

U.S. politics have always been chaotic and wildly partisan. In 1856, Southern pro-slavery Preston Brooks beat abolitionist Charles Sumner with a cane on the senate floor. Rather than hurting Brooks' rep, his supporters were so delighted they sent him walking canes as gifts. How far we haven't come.

America was founded on the basic protection against unlawful imprisonment. Due process is a fundamental right in our constitution. Denying it or defending those who deny it is unamerican and illegal.
