Karl DEFEND DEMOCRACY Bunday 🇺🇸 🗽 🇺🇦 🇹🇼

Allies of Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders suffer primary defeats in Arkansas.

“Sanders suffered a string of defeats Tuesday, when two GOP state senators who had blocked her plan to build the state’s biggest prison scored resounding wins against her handpicked challengers and the majority leader was swept from power by another prison skeptic.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

Man arrested in Virginia is latest in series of Jan. 6 riot defendants to face new charges Jonathan Munafo is among the Jan. 6 riot defendants who have been arrested on charges in new cases in the months after their pardons.

NEW: Another pardoned Jan 6 defendant is arrested

The list grows …

Basically, what the Department of Justice argued in court today was that RFK Jr. has the absolute authority to kill millions of people with impunity.

I do not exaggerate.

Sen. Blumenthal has written a letter to Kristi Noem about her denial that Corey Lewandowski has a role in approving contracts at DHS.

"I demand that you amend your testimony" and "provide the basis for your apparent false statement on the record."

Jeffries: "Article 1 of the Constitution provides Congress with the sole authority to declare war. Framers made that decision b/c they were concerned about kings plunging their people into unnecessary wars to pillage resources of others for the benefit of a tyrant and his family. Sound familiar?"

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge

CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: A what?

CROCKETT: A law degree

NOEM: No I do no-

CROCKETT: Okay

THE HILL: Senate Repubs defeat measure to halt Iran strikes

I had a thought as I read Collins' take... then 4 graffs down I saw Murkowski had the same thought (yet still voted NAY).

As for Collins saying passing the WPR res would undercut the troops, not passing it…

Is a Senator who interferes with Capitol Police to break the bones of a Marine Corps veteran who's staging a protest subject to arrest for battery, or does that somehow fall under the Senator's constitutional privilege?

James Talarico, a 36-year-old state legislator, won the Democratic nomination for Senate in Texas, finishing ahead of Representative Jasmine Crockett as his party’s voters put their faith in him to pursue an elusive decades-long goal of turning the state blue. https://nyti.ms/4aMEVDY

(alongside images of Leah Greenberg, Ezra Levin, and protesters at a No Kings event) WHAT’S THE PLAN? with Leah Greenberg & Ezra Levin

At this time tomorrow, join our co-founders for their weekly chat. Leah and Ezra will cover Trump's illegal war with Iran, the DHS funding fight, No Kings Day, your top-ranked questions, and much more: www.mobilize.us/indi...

In addition to today’s Senate vote, the House will likely vote tomorrow on a War Powers Resolution.

We need to make it clear that if our Members of Congress don’t act to halt Trump’s illegal war with Iran, they will own the fallout. Make sure your elected officials hear from you.

Exactly. By not saying where they got their info, AltNPS is implying that they learned about these soldiers' deaths THEMSELVES.

If most people posted these names without credit, it'd be annoying, but I wouldn't be crowing about it. But most people aren't pretending to be government insiders.

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."

“Oh so someone who has made a bunch of mistakes in their life can’t be a Senator?”

Yes, I believe there should be much higher standards for being in the Senate than for getting a regular job. That’s not hard for me to internalize.

"It is fraud" -- Neguse nails Kristi Noem for lying during her testimony yesterday when she told the Senate that DHS's $220m ad campaign starring her "went out to a competitive bid" (it did not), and tells her "I think there's gonna be accountability" (1/2)

28 USC 530B(a): "An attorney for the Government shall be subject to state laws and rules ... governing attorneys in each State where such attorney engages in that attorney's duties, to the same extent and in the same manner as other attorneys in that state."

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities

McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

I'm teaching about early 20th century eugenics today and was reminded that 9 years ago Republican Representative Steve King was stripped of his committee assignments by his GOP colleagues for this post that simply states what is now bog standard GOP policy/rhetoric on immigration and "civilization."

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?

NOEM: She did not. She's with her family

LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release

Clinical trial reforms that once seemed radical How randomized controlled trials, preregistration, and results reporting became standard practice.

New post!

It may seem ambitious to ask for individual patient data from clinical trials to be shared, anonymized, for use by other researchers.

But the history of medicine shows us that clinical trials have already undergone a series of transformations that once seemed equally bold:

Here's what I believe: no more business as usual in the Senate. We shouldn't be voting to proceed to normal legislation until Republicans schedule a debate and a vote and on a declaration of war against Iran. Let's see if Trump has the votes to authorize war. I bet he doesn't.

Was away for a bit, see that some on here decided to outrage farm about a tweet I didn't write for an article of mine they didn't read or link. Since that seems to be the preferred mode of consumption, here are a few other headlines! Always do the reading; don't let the engagement farmers con you.

Mike Johnson ignores a question about if the Pentagon has asked for supplemental funding and walks away

Once again, a federal court affirms that Members of Congress have the right to conduct unannounced oversight visits of ICE detention facilities. The American people demand oversight, accountability and reform of the administration's inhumane immigration practices.

I want to know Secretary Noem's plan to stop masked ICE and CBP agents from killing American citizens like Renee Good and Alex Pretti. We can enforce our immigration laws without terrorizing American citizens and immigrant communities.

Nancy Mace moves that the Oversight Committee subpoena Pam Bondi to testify about the Epstein investigation

Walz to Nancy Mace: "Minnesota ranks at the top. Where do South Carolina children rank on healthiness? I'm not here to be your prop."

WALZ: What a 'stop payment' meant by what the administration did last week is 400,000 children without healthcare

COMER: We believe that's your fault

WALZ: Our Medicaid error rate is lower than your state
