I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Sound familiar?

The people outside this country seem to know this country better than the people who live in this country...

Either/or: Take your pick.

Every single journalist covering the protests across the US must include an explainer on Stephen Miller covering his white nationalism and his obsession with punishing immigrants. He instructed ICE to arrest more by any means necessary. Protesters are reacting to authoritarian state violence.

HAPPENING NOW: DOZENS of ICE agents seen gearing up for a night raid in LA Chinatown. This is how the U.S. treats immigrant communities. Like criminals. Like targets. Pull up to 721 Hill St. NOW. Document. Witness. DEFEND.

“America actually is, at present, an occupied country. . .To the extent that this statement is complicated by the fact that those in power were elected, their conduct in office seems not to be what many of their voters were led to expect or would have chosen.” www.nybooks.com/articles/202...

All the radical left maxists like Rand Paul, Ron Johnson and Elon Musk now oppose Trump and Mike Johnson’s budget bill.

Share and Enjoy!

The Trumper obsession with Harvard is a cringe-inducing drama around status envy.

The man with the nuclear codes walked into a wall. 😬

Thanks @npr.org for this coverage! FBF appreciates coverage of the devastation that has occurred to CDC health communication. CDC scientists and experts should not be silenced. Communication is the life blood of public health and prevention. #saveCDC #savepublichealth #savelives

That moment when you know things are finally moving in the right direction!

Federal judge dresses down Alina Habba: "Your role is not to secure convictions at all costs, nor to satisfy public clamor, nor to advance political agendas. Your allegiance is to the impartial application of the law, to the pursuit of truth and to the upholding of due process for all."

NEW: Judge Hannah Dugan files a blistering motion to dismiss the baseless charges against her. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/in-defense...

www.politico.eu/article/vlad... Putin is building a war machine to try to take Europe - and NATO is allowing him to build it, train it and blood it. He is far too committed to stop now. He'll have to be stopped the hard way - when?

DeLAURO: Are you planning to break the law by impounding appropriated funds? RFK Jr: If you appropriate the funds, I'm going to spend them D: We have! You're cutting the NIH by $18b. Congress appropriated those funds. How can you justify cutting billions from the biomedical research budget?
