If Trump orders US military members to do something ILLEGAL, will they follow those orders? I spent more than 6 years on active duty as an Army JAG. In the military, we're taught that we MUST DISOBEY UNLAWFUL ORDERS & remain loyal to the Constitution. I believe the military will hold the line.

Glenn Youngkin has "seemingly decided the best way to proceed is by trying to convince federal workers that getting laid off is the best thing that could have happened to them." That's one spin. Today's Morning Shots from @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social and @eggerdc.bsky.social:

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social on Mike Johnson considering conditioning disaster aid: "Never in California did we question whether or not we, as taxpayers in the largest state in the Union, should support the people of Louisiana at a time of emergency and need. We’d never condition it."

"Even the story of his near-murder, his tragi-farcical trials, and his ordeal in the penal colony is told with humor—and humanity." Navalny's refusal to knuckle under is permanent, now that he's dead, and is still a threat to Putin's regime. www.thebulwark.com/p/even-in-de...

Much of the discussion around the derelictions of legacy media focuses on the need for independent voices. Here is something pretty amazing: the valedictory White House interview w/ Pres Biden is scored by @meidastouch.com and Ben Meidas. What a coup for them. www.meidasplus.com/p/ben-meisel...

VIDEO of the moment where my buddy Sarah Longwell reminds everybody that Kevin McCarthy was the first person to rehabilitate Trump after January 6th. "I don't know if people let you get away with that in rooms all the time, but you should *never* be allowed to get away with that." 👏

“Maybe he’s got a drinking problem but he wasn’t drunk when I interviewed him.” If Republicans move the bar for Pete Hegseth any lower, it’ll be passed out on the pub floor covered in its own vomit.

While Morning Joe is back to cozying up to Donald Trump, @meidastouch.bsky.social will never do so. At times like these, we need to support folks like MeidasTouch who are the future of journalism. www.meidasplus.com/p/goodbye-mo...
