Assaulting women, mocking disabled, …, turning Iran into a parking lot.

It won’t end until we pump this administration out of our bilge to the wrong side of history.

Constitutional Crisis Defcon change!
El Salvador’s president says he won’t release Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
A complete lie which belies the terrible truth that this scheme is an attack on both due process and rulings by the judiciary. It starts with immigrants, who's next?

Service members: Remember the duty to disobey In the not-too-distant future, military members of all ranks and specialties might have a difficult choice: side with an unlawful president or with the Constitution.

“I was just following orders” is not a defense. The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) upholds this principle, stating that military personnel have a duty to disobey unlawful orders.

"Booker railed for hours against cuts to Social Security offices led by Trump adviser Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency. He listed the impacts of Trump’s early orders and spoke to concerns that broader cuts to the social safety net could be coming"
Keep going Sen. Booker !!

Considering ways to acknowledge the great efforts, dedication and sacrifice of those at the "front lines" of our democracy. Baldrige award?
We owe so much to the independent press, constitutional lawyers, political organizers & protesters, and especially our civil servants who "hold the line."

Judge orders Trump to rehire probationary workers let go in mass firings across multiple agencies A federal judge in California has ordered the Trump administration to rehire thousands of probationary workers let go in mass firings across multiple agencies. U.S.

A legal win and strong rebuke.
Judge Alsup: “It is sad, a sad day, when our government would fire some good employees and say it was based on performance when they know good and well that’s a lie. That should not have been done in our country.”

Trump administration halts $1 billion program that keeps aging affordable housing livable The Associated Press has obtained a document showing that the Trump administration is halting a $1 billion program that helps preserve affordable housing.

YouTube video by Fox Business Elon Musk exposes why Democrats don’t want ‘waste and fraud’ to be turned off

Just listen to his reason why...

A 40-day Target boycott starts today. It couldn’t come at a worse time for the company | CNN Business Target is facing a 40-day consumer boycott starting Wednesday over the company’s shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies.

“We’re asking people to divest from Target because they have turned their back on our community,” Rev. Jamal Bryant. “Black people spend upwards of $12 million dollars a day, and so we would expect some loyalty, some decency and some camaraderie.”

I'm OUT too.
Tractor Supply is OFF my list too.

GOP pushes ahead with citizenship voting bill. Some state election officials say it's problematic The centerpiece election legislation from congressional Republicans would require voters to prove their citizenship when registering.

In true form, this Republican bill disenfranchises urban and women voters. Even if this particular legislation fails, these attacks will continue. Democrats must pre-register our base or assist in their applying for proof-of-citizenship documents.
What can we do to help our party with their plan?

What is the cabinet thinking? Are they all sold on being the corruption nucleus or is there remorse about selling their soul? Pre-Trump, had they EVER considered dismantling the govt and its effects on the vast majority of us? Do they consider what will they preside over when the deed is done?

It is clear that Trump and Vance are now Putin's Pawns. Can Trump be endowed with so much greed that he not only turns on our ally in their most desperate time of need but also threatens their leader with WW3 from the Oval Office?
What possible price could cause them to abandon all human decency?

"Democrats would be wise to account for the damage. Each day, they must track the data and gather the individual stories that result from this assault on functional government. Then, they can compare the state of the country before and after Musk’s destruction."

This is on the worse end of the range of outcomes that I had anticipated. They’re frontally attacking the validity of transgender existence, right? I don’t think there’s any other way to put it.

Negro National Anthem performed by Chris Bender
kicks off Black History Month in Boston.

You know that Trump's attack on DEI is a thin disguise for a racist war on the Civil Rights Act and ultimately on Equal Protection under the Constitution.

We will fight for the Idea of America.

Hold the Line !!

Trump's pardon of the 600 violent criminals is beyond my words. My heart bleeds blue for the family of slain officer Brian Sicknick, as well as Michael Fanone and all of the Capital Police Officers. 💙

I read this recommendation in another article:
"[Parents of young children] asked for good books to read with them to fill the gaps in civics education. I suggested Preet Bharara’s Justice Is...: A Guide for Young Truth Seekers."
