I feel like there's a need for him to visit Chicago.

Didn't Yugoslavia break up into different countries in the early 90s?

I thought it was just me. For me, it goes back 50+ years. I had been thinking, the upside of my memory maybe going in the future would be that it would stop but then realized that the long-term memory is the thing that lasts. Something for you to look forward too. 😬 Sorry! 😟 But enjoy your day! 😄

Actually, what we have is pure tyranny.

Other than I consume a lot of news and my dad started out his career as a newspaper reporter in the UK, I'm no journalism expert. But even I realize that a text message interview is a load of old rubbish.

This image never loses its relevance.

Is this going to become the (or at least an) iconic photo of the Trump 2 era, which hopefully history will show did not reach into its second year?

Someone looking at all this with a cold eye might say that Miller and Hegseth are seeking control over the power ministries before a Vance ally invokes the 25th Amendment.

Speaker Johnson continues to stall the swearing in of Rep.-elect Grijalva so as to avoid having to deal with the Epstein discharge petition. Why shouldn’t Dems make support for reopening the government contingent on adding to the funding measure a provision mandating release of the Epstein files?

"We're gonna crash some planes if you don't fund ICE."

It really is staggering to see so many people willing to abandon our 249 year experiment in democracy for an increasingly unstable criminally convicted reality show charlatan.

House of South Carolina Judge Criticized by Trump Administration Set Ablaze Authorities are investigating a fire at the home of a South Carolina judge who had reportedly received death threats in what could be the latest incident of political violence across the country.

Over the weekend, Trump's deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller repeatedly attacked judges, calling them part of an "organized terrorist attack" on the US government....

On Saturday, the home of a judge who ruled against Trump, went up in flames

I thought the Epstein files would not be a big deal until Trump decided he’d start a civil war rather than release them.

Planning eight months ahead for a 79-year-old in obviously poor health should be written into the Oval Office calendar in pencil only.

‘The president is unhinged’: Trump’s online behavior grows increasingly odd The US president’s recent behavior is strange to many, from reposting a false AI video of himself to confusing comments during press conferences

Steve is 'Working from home' today.
He's trying his best.

Mondays are tough.

At what point does a governor call up their National Guard to oppose the deployment of an out-of-state National Guard?

This is powerful and worth watching all the way to the end!

We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

I'd like to think, maybe foolishly, that some GOP politicians and leaders will decide Trump, Miller, Hegseth, Noem et. al. have gone far enough -- in light of the fact the country is fracturing, if not falling into civil war.

BREAKING: We just won in court — again.

A federal judge BLOCKED Donald Trump’s unlawful attempt to DEPLOY 300 OF OUR NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS TO PORTLAND.

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.

America is on the brink of martial law.

Do not be silent.

Pretty clear Stephen Miller, Noem, Hegseth and Trump are trying to provoke a Civil War at this point. What's interesting is they want to do it now, because even though they're unpopular, they seem to believe this is the most popular they'll be ever again. We can't let them win.

This represents a major escalation.

President Trump effort to mobilize TEXAS National Guard for deployment in Portland and Chicago.

Court filing just entered in Oregon v. Trump⬇️

The @thebulwark.com is sure hiring good people! (First trip to the apple orchard! 🙂)

This is probably the most effective form of resistance.
