Our nation is again at war, not because we had to but because the president recklessly chose to.

Now we must recognize who pays the price: not the president and his wealthy allies, but service members and ordinary Americans.

Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC.

Let me get this straight:

Congress wants to prosecute 14 yr. olds as adults, but they don’t want to prosecute adults who sexually abuse 14 year olds?

Release the Epstein files.

Protestors in Ukraine fighting for democracy and justice despite facing death and violence

Protestors in Ukraine fighting for democracy and justice despite facing death and violence

Today Ukraine honors the Heavenly Hundred Heroes, the brave heroes that died during the 2014 Revolution of Dignity when the billionaire and Russian controlled Yanukovych regime shot anti-impunity protesters.

Protestors didn’t back down, they fought and gave it their all for democracy & justice. #3E

The only question left by the Supreme Court decision on tariffs is:
What the fuck is wrong with Thomas, Alito, and Kavenaugh?
The Constitution could not say more clearly that only Congress has the power to impose taxes.
Can't those three justices umderstand a simple, direct English sentence?

One of the very few self-imposed limits Trump has ever expressed is respect for Supreme Court decisions. No doubt that was in part due to his confidence of victories there. We'll soon learn whether that line still holds.

This is a win for veterans everywhere. The fact that this was proposed in the first place was an insult to every person who has ever put on the uniform.

We will continue to hold this administration accountable to make sure our promises to those who served are kept, period.
