20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

Reverend David Black, other faith leaders, journalists, and protestors have joined a class action lawsuit alleging ICE violated their First Amendment rights during protests outside a detention center.

The brutality of this regime is on full display.

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

Not long ago, Democrats were targeted in the middle of the night in their own homes, yet the very voices now shouting were silent then. We didn’t create doxxing sites, we didn’t make threats, because that’s not who we are. That’s never been what we stand for.

The "common good" is a set of shared values about what we owe one another as citizens who are bound together in the same society. A concern for the common goodβ€”keeping the common good in mindβ€”is a moral attitude. It recognizes that we’re all in it together.

This is either incredibly stupid or incredibly dishonest. Given this is Dinesh D'Souza, I'm guessing both.

Tyler Robinson only did one semester at Utah, hardly a lib enclave. He lasted longer at Dixie Technical College. And, as we all know, schools with the name "Dixie" are notorious for wokeness.

Unconscionable: US plan to destroy $9.7 million of contraceptives MSF condemns the decision to destroy these critical medical supplies, which will have devastating consequences for the communities where we work.

The Trump administration spent $167,000 to destroy $9.7 million worth of birth control and other contraceptives that were supposed to go to low-income countries. Imagine hating helping so much that you’d actually spend money just to make sure others don’t get help.

If you're a reporter, please stop referring to RFK Jr and his cronies as "vaccine skeptics." They're not skeptical. Skepticism would be fine. Skeptics look at evidence and can be persuaded.

These people are extremist anti-vaccine cranks, and that's how news organizations should describe them.

Job growth stalls: US economy added just 22,000 jobs in August and unemployment rose to highest level since 2021 | CNN Business The US job market is stalling out.

The irony of Trump usurping power over the BLS, Federal Reserve, the tariff power of Congress, and a growing portion of the private sector is that these abysmal job numbers can only be pinned on him. If nothing else brings him down, his authoritarian control over the economy surely will.

Ohio voters deserve and demand fair, bipartisan district maps! Text SIGN PCDLKN to 50409 β€” Republicans in Ohio are engaging in a blatant power grab by exploiting a loophole in state law to redraw congressional districts and target Democratic incumbents ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. After failing to pass bipartisan maps as required, the Republican-controlled state legislature now plans to unilaterally approve a highly partisan gerrymander that could eliminate up to three Democratic seats. This would give Republicans a lopsided 12-3 or even 13-2 advantage in Ohio's congressional delegation despite the state being essentially split along partisan lines. This is an egregious assault on fair representation and the democratic process. Gerrymandering of this magnitude rigs the system, silences the voices of millions of Ohioans, and denies them equal representation in Congress. It is a desperate and undemocratic attempt by Republicans to entrench their narrow majority at all costs, even if it means obliterating the concept of one person, one vote. Ohio voters deserve better than these cynical machinations that put partisan interests over democratic principles. This proposed congressional map must be rejected as an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander that violates Ohioans' voting rights.

The fundamental choice has not been as stark since World War II: democracy and freedom, or dictatorship and tyranny.

Trump and his sycophants are siding with the latter. The rest of us must loudly, proudly, and boldly proclaim our allegiance to the former.
