If you think there’s NOTHING in our heritage (or in any nation’s) to be unapologetic about, you’re a fool. A dangerous fool.

When will Republicans, veterans organizations, & retired military officers speak up about this? No president in the history of the Republic has done this. Yet Trump, Vance, & Hegseth do it constantly. It betrays the most important core value of our military-no partisan politics.

I realize media doesn’t think it’s a big deal that Trump, Vance & Hegseth continue to give partisan political speeches to troops, evidenced by the fact that they are never asked about it nor are members of Congress, but it is one of the most dangerous things happening right now.

NEW: The Trump administration’s legal stay to avoid funding the Gateway Tunnel has expired.

Donald Trump needs to follow the law and get the project back on track immediately.

Whistle Beats Gun.

ICE is pulling out of Minneapolis. A huge win. Democracy beats fascism. Love beats hate. Whistle beats gun.

Fascism will end at the ballot box. Help @fieldteam6.org register more Democrats so we'll be ready to take back the House & the Senate in November!

You can see why the White House would want to TACO their metal tariffs.

Will Fox be updating their story on this and giving it the same amount of airtime as they did initial arrest?

ICE is at my friend's grandkids' GRADE school in the Catskill Mountains. They're not letting the kids on the bus - parents have to pick them up and show their birth certificates.

This is WRONG! Convicted Felon Donald Trump & Botox Barbie Noem lied about only arresting criminals.

🚨 Kormanik v. Wisconsin Elections Commission Learn more.

WIN: In a win for Wisconsin voters, a state appeals court allowed voters to cancel mistakenly marked absentee ballots and request a new one, or opt to vote in person.

The decision reverses a lower court ruling barring voters from being able to do so.

National Guard troops were quietly withdrawn from some U.S. cities The deployments encountered repeated legal setbacks that stymied President Donald Trump’s show of force in Los Angeles, Chicago and Portland, Oregon.

For the first time, crickets from Donald Trump.

After losing in court multiple times to Illinois and other states, the National Guard was finally quietly pulled out of our streets.

The pressure is working, and we’ve got to keep at it.

The only Republican challenging Dem Sen. Ben Ray Lujan is disqualified by New Mexico SoS. The ABQ Journal says this would leave the GOP without a Senate candidate for the first time in "modern history," and just six years after Lujan won by only 6 points. www.abqjournal.com/news/four-ne...

It’s a shame that we can’t take Homan at his word after the federal administration has lied to Minnesotans so much.

If it is true, and ICE actually leaves Minnesota this weekend, it’ll be a moment to celebrate our strength.

Then we fight for accountability.
