Dallas Cowboys co-owner shuts down Stephen Miller's wife on immigration Far-right Trump strategist Stephen Miller's wife invited the co-owner of the Dallas Cowboys onto her podcast to talk about a Super Bowl controversy that has become a hot-button issue for the MAGA move...

Jones did not stop there, reminding Miller that β€œwe have a mixed culture. I mean, our whole society is based on immigrants that have come here and founded our country. And I think we can celebrate that.”

The Silence After the Salute The same government that orders troops to patrol U.S. streets now cuts their healthcare, mental health support, and food assistance. Gratitude has become exploitation.

I would rather see people in the military resign than fail to uphold their oath to the constitution. They owe their loyalty to this country and the people they serve, NOT to a dictator and his authoritarian minions.

BREAKING: Republicans Demand Abortion Restrictions in Exchange for ACA Subsidies Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions in exchange for ACA subsidies, Grijalva will be sworn in tomorrow, Republicans are furious at Johnson as GOP loses redistricting war, and more

I watched a movie the other day that reminded me why reproductive rights is so important. Not everyone can handle the mental/emotional/physical demands of having children.

Trump quietly erases conviction of GOP lawmaker’s spouse President Donald Trump reportedly pardoned the husband of a Tennessee House Republican who admitted to distributing misbranded kidney dialysis drugs and committing health care fraud.Robert Harshbarger...

No, a pardon doesn't erase a conviction, you will always be convicted for the crime. And while the GOP scream about fraud, they seem to be ok with it when it's done by allies.

The removal of the panels about the Black Americans who took part in the effort is "indecent and unacceptable," said the joint statement from eleven political parties in Limburg. They stated the move "does not do justice to history."

Mercy Culture Church trains Christians to run for office in Texas - The Texas Tribune At the core of the program is the idea that there is no separation between what happens within the church and what happens in the government.

This Week in Democracy – Week 42: Trump Pardons Crooks, Ignores Courts, and Threatens War Another week of Zeteo's project to document the ongoing growth of authoritarianism in Trump's second term.

And it wasn’t just the elections that had Trump and his allies sulking. Even the Supreme Court – the same court that has handed him win after win – appeared unconvinced by the legality of Trump’s tariff policy. Needless to say, it was a very, very rough week for the president.

Air Force relieves air mobility group commander in Spain after just four months Col. Ryan Herman, who took over the 521st Air Mobility Operations Group in July, was removed following a β€œloss of confidence.”

Yeah but with the Dictators-R-Us group, loss of confidence I'm sure means not sufficiently loyal to the fat man and his minions.

In the early weeks of the administration, an internal ICE memo reported by Reuters and The Guardian laid out an effort to track down certain unaccompanied children, specifically, those deemed a β€œflight risk” or risk to public safety, or those with β€œexecutable orders of removal.”

Al Green switches congressional districts in reelection bid The veteran lawmaker whose current district was redrawn to benefit Republicans would face the winner of the 18th Congressional District special election runoff.

Green has been a strong advocate of the effort to impeach Trump, and he said continuing to criticize the president will be one of his priorities if he secures another term in Congress β€” but he’s facing a crowded race.

Democrats name their price on ending government shutdown Democrats could vote to end the shutdown in exchange for a one-year extension of expiring Obamacare tax credits.

The Democratic offer includes adding the ACA tax credit extensions to a package of appropriations bills and a short-term spending bill. Democrats are also proposing a bipartisan committee to continue negotiations on long-term reforms to address health care affordability.

Meanwhile, Trump’s economic officials are scrambling to rewrite the narrative. His labor secretary and economic adviser have begun spinning the collapse as the fault of the ongoing government shutdown, ignoring the fact that Trump himself engineered it and controls all branches of government.
