For no particular reason….posting former U.S. Attorney General John Mitchell’s mugshot before he went to Federal prison for committing numerous crimes on behalf and or/at the direction of President Nixon including obstruction of justice and conspiracy.

Sweetheart, bless your heart.

You were fine with Trump going after innocent election workers, families of judges, rallying a mob that killed police officers.

But now that Daddy is upset with his girl, you are a victim.

Sorry, @RepMTG. We knew you before you were a virgin

I’ve long thought @peter-wehner.bsky.social was the best of us. His decency, honesty, and unflinching courage shames the Republican Party of Trump.

I had the opportunity and privilege to join an aid project in Ukraine.

Imagine it’s 1944 and England is still fighting on its on with a blitz every night. That’s the reality of Ukraine today.

State Militias? It's Time. Trump has signaled he plans to invoke the Insurrection Act in his battle with Democratic cities. The Founders ensured that we have a powerful tool to counter such tyranny.

It's time for governors to use their exisiting power to stand up state militias to defend their citizens.

White words on a black background read:

50+ 
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. 

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

What strikes me as so sad and telling about @JDVance is his continued defense against attacks on his own children. Does he really think that his mixed race kids are immune from the racist hate he defends?

What Trump Understood about the Republican Party How did a party that once prided itself on principle become in thrall to the most unprincipled president in history?

Something happened in the Republican Party. Over decades we developed a system that rewarded compliance and punished independence. It was like a genetic experiment in how to cultivate a party of subservient elected officials.
