It’s like the Crusades but instead of Richard the Lionheart it’s Donald the Nightmareneck

This is great.

As I wrote in the Globe a few weeks ago, all public officials -- and municipalities, too -- should leave X.

If you were hoping for a DHS secretary even *one iota* better than Noem, stop hoping.

Mullin will be easily confirmed, and he's nothing more than a vacuous thug *gleeful* to be the mailed fist of the president against citizens and non-citizens alike.

There was a post I was going to post days agoβ€”and didn'tβ€”that I now wish I had:

"The two most *brutally stupid* United States Senators are Markwayne Mullin and Tommy Tuberville."

The first of these two colossal imbeciles is now going to be the next DHS secretary, starting 3/31.

Trump’s blatant lawlessness will haunt America and the world β€” and civilization β€” for years to come. It is our sacred duty, to ourselves and future generations, to peacefully and legally put an end to it. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-moral-basis-of-civilization

The Trump Administration is considering asking Congress for new emergency spending for the Iran War.

Hell no. This is our chance to draw a line in the sand and use our power to stop this war before it kills more Americans and sends the Middle East into more chaos.

While Cost of Living Soars and Healthcare Taken Away, Trump Spending $1 Billion Per Day in War of Choice With Iran | Common Dreams "We can't afford to keep our hospitals open, but we can afford a billion dollars a day to bomb Iran?"

Remember, schools, healthcare and housing for U.S. citizens in need is unaffordable but levelling foreign countries through unprovoked attacks is affordable. www.commondreams.org/news/what-s-...

Calling in the Clinton’s in for a closed-door testimony while ignoring other widely implicated individuals is no mistake. This is an active, and massive, cover-up.

Senator Collins:

I'm asking you, not as your opponent, but as a Mainer and a veteran who has seen too many people die.

You can stop this war machine before it chews up any more lives.

If you still have a conscience somewhere under all that concern, we need you to find it.

How do we know the GOP wants to rig elections? Because they lie Their lies cover up their intent to cheat.

In light of Trump's post this morning about the so-called SAVE ACT, here's a piece that lays out in granular detail the facts about elections laws in Connecticut, and how rightwing allegations of "fraud" are actually declarations of intent.

The republicans are always speaking to their deplorable base. For decades they refer to democrats as communists even those in the establishment who are barely left of center. Now they just add narco to the demonic name calling to increase the hate and fear by the less intelligent of their followers

Why Trump First Ended the Law Firm Suits, Then Didn’t We can’t know for sure, but he ended in a worse place than before

Bob Bauer analyzes DOJ's about-face on defending Trump's law firm executive orders: "If it was possible to bring even more discredit to this attack on the legal profession, the administration managed to do it over a span of less than 24 hours."

"The law firm community is now on notice that the administration is fully prepared to deploy clearly unlawful strategies that cannot be sustained in the courts but will [nonetheless] achieve some part of the president’s purposes." Those purposes include chilling representation of his adversaries.
