ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.

Our leading papers failed to stand up to Trump's criminal justice authoritarianism The Washington Post and The New York Times editorial boards failed to hold Trump accountable for his attack on D.C. And, for paid subscribers: Closing my tabs.

Chris goes after legacy media. It's an eye opener to see how we get mislead. It's a course in reading between the lines!

I’ve read A People’s History of the United States. Very different from what we were taught in school about American history. America was built from massacres, slavery, oppression, hate n greed. American Democracy was an illusion! #america

Russians cheer Putin’s Alaska invitation, envision no concessions on Ukraine Ukrainian and European officials met with Vice President JD Vance to coordinate a response to Russia’s proposal.

I’m Not panicking. I’m Outraged. Read more here.

I have been the subject of many spurious accusations and politically motivated attacks, but this one is in a class by itself. According to Tulsi Gabbard β€” the nation’s top intelligence official β€” my refusal to post on Twitter is being reviewed by the Department of Justice as evidence of wrongdoing.
