Trump's panicked call to have his hopelessly corrupt DoJ investigate everyone (except himself of course) for connections to Epstein is a last ditch effort to keep additional records out of the public domain - thats it, it is that simple.

The no-BS version of what the speaker meant to say: "...I think the court has to recognize that there is only one branch of government -- he's simply using tariffs to tax the American people and lie about it."

Over 7,000 Virginians joined me and President @barackobama.bsky.social in Norfolk yesterday to rally for the future of our Commonwealth.

This Tuesday, let's send a clear message: Virginians are ready for leadership who will put them first.

Chris Murphy is one of the only Dems who gets that there is no budget “deal” to make. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/there-is-n...

The Trump administration and MAGA legislators are trying to scare you into not attending the 'No Kings' protest - do not be intimidated! Show up, be loud, and be peaceful (Your country will thank you later). We are not terrorists, we are not being paid, but we are pissed, and we are citizens.

No Kings Day Protest - October 18, 2025 "Reclaiming Democracy, Rejecting Authoritarianism" Final local protest & send a message -- We will not be intimidated!

On 18 October - find a local 'No Kings' protest and raise your voice. Do not sit on the sidelines numbed by the transparent lies, obscene theatrics, and grinding absurdity of the Trump administration.

Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence NATIONAL SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM/NSPM-7 MEMORANDUM FOR THE SECRETARY OF STATE                THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

Please read NATIONAL SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM/NSPM-7. The most Orwellian and anti-American document ever released by any WH. It is transparenty designed to intimidate and suppress political dissent not deal with actual political violence. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Is there no point in this Bedlam masquerading as a government that elected Republicans will wake up? We are way past "have you no sense of decency" -- we are at the "have you no sense."

We will ensure that "...your dishonor will remain." (Liz Cheney)

Telling: His movement is screaming "civil war" - dear leader is playing doll house.

Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?

TRUMP: I think very good...They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House...it's gonna be a beauty...

We are in a 'boil-the-frog' constitutional and moral crisis in this country. Another presidential permission slip for the much, much greater abuse to come was put in place by Monday's Supreme Court decision to allow “racially profiling." It never ends at the 'other' - and it never ends well. Shame!

Trump's destruction of the informal customs that sustain a liberal democracy, not to mention his disregard for formal constitutional restraints, sets him apart from his predecessors. As long as our republic exists, Trump's name should live in infamy.

Trump Calls Netanyahu a ‘War Hero’ and Adds: ‘I Guess I Am, Too’

And still -- his un-American policies are much, much worse.

Happy Canada Day to our friends and allies up north. Our relationship will survive the current occupant of the White House - as Barack Obama once said, "The world needs more Canada." 🇨🇦

YouTube video by FOX 5 Washington DC FULL: President Donald Trump speaks at NATO World Leaders Summit on Iran peace talks

POTUS and SecDef statements on Iran strike BDA @ the NATO press conference are beyond parody. Their belligerent stupidity is a national humiliation. www.youtube.com/watch?v=73KM...

Happy 250th birthday to the US Army! It is a sad spectacle to see our Army, founded to defeat a king, being used by a wannabe tyrant as a political prop. We the people need to fix this..

Tacky imitation gold decor and military parades - authoritarian playbook…a commander-in-chief uniform cannot be far behind).

“We have the greatest missiles in the world…the greatest submarines…the greatest army tanks…the greatest weapons in the world. And we’re going to celebrate it.”

Quote of the day...
"Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded..." (The Economist)

Why the Signal debacle is more significant than it appears -
1. It was not the first time this app was used at this level. (What else has been compromised?)
2. Putting ease & avoidance of accountability over security (combined with arrogance) = disaster.
3. A goldmine for threat deception planners.

Goethe’s ‘There is nothing more fearful than ignorance in action’ is a depressing but apt description of our times…
