America's Decisive Moment. Thank you for your service on both sides of the lens.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Pence: "To have POTUS in Saudi Arabia questioning America's global war on terror & describing is as nation building & interventionist I thought was a disservice to generations of Americans who wore the uniform..particularly giving that speech in Saudi Arabia where 15 of the 19 hijackers hailed from"

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

If the agent of an embittered KGB officer somehow won the US presidency and entered into the office bent on destroying the USA in its national influence, network of alliances, and the American people’s quality of life, what would he be doing differently?

If it walks like a Russian agent, and it talks like a Russian agent, is it still an American administration?

I spoke to an expert in authoritarianism, who explained to me that things like this are extremely meaningful and they help protect democracy, even if there’s not a straight line between this and actual legislating

Raskin: I call on my colleagues to take down the wanted posters with judges’ faces on them outside of offices in House office buildings

I've decided to revoke the security clearance for anyone dumb and arrogant enough to post OPSEC on a platform that the NSA just warned was being monitored by Russian agents.
Who's with me?!

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam.
It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

We are the ones who are coming to save us.

Rarely has so much ignorance & ahistorical BS been crammed into a single tweet. I know JD Vance & Donald Trump are busy surrendering to a KGB butcher, abandoning the cause of freedom, & destroying the security of America & her allies, but they'd do well to spend some time actually studying history.

Start here with Ronald Reagan: “Perhaps you and I have lived too long with this miracle to properly be appreciative. Freedom is a fragile thing and it's never more than one generation away from extinction.

RIP GOP - the party that would have been disgusted by Trump's treatment of a head of state standing up against Russia. Russia for god's sake. A criminal state! Remember when the GOP was hawkish about Russia. It's how we won the Cold War! Only to have Trump cozy up to an ex FSB thug. Disgusting.

GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Hot damn.

My Congressman - Rep. Andy Harris (MD-1) - would never allow himself to be anywhere in public where he could actually be asked a question by a voter. Hasn't done a real town hall in years.

Meet the federal workers pleading with Andy Harris to fight for them Career civil servants living in Harris’ district have found that asking their elected official to speak up for them has been as effective as screaming underwater.

Federal workers in Congressman Andy Harris’ deep red Md. district are pleading for his help. But reaching out to the chair of the House Freedom Caucus has been as useful as screaming under water. @thebaltimorebanner.com

These Soldiers Risked Their Lives Serving in Afghanistan. Now They Plead With Trump to Let Their Sister Into the U.S. Trump’s executive orders have blocked entrance to the country for thousands of Afghans, including those who worked with the U.S. military and their relatives. Two brothers hope answers come quickly…

Trump’s executive orders have blocked entrance to the country for more than 110,000 refugees, including thousands of Afghans who worked with the U.S. military.

“We feel betrayed,” said one Afghan American soldier.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
