More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.

Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.

Beautiful and devastating all at once.

Melissa Hortman saw something in people and gave them an opportunity - that's just how she led.

Today, I'm thinking about her famous “I'm not sorry” speech, where she encouraged so many of us to take up space and be heard. I miss you, friend.

"Trump lied, Piers, when he said he never went on the [Epstein] plane."

Susan Collins hands Trump the 50th vote against free and fair elections When it comes to free and fair elections, Collins is as conservative and anti-voting rights as they come.

NEW: Sen. Susan Collins became the 50th senator to support the voter suppressive SAVE America Act.

The Mainer's alignment with Trump’s agenda exposes her willingness to turn her back on democracy.

But this November, voters will get the chance to return the favor, Marc Elias writes.

There are no "reasonable Republicans" because they long ago ceased to be a political party.

A political party tries to court your vote. An authoritarian regime tries to keep you from voting, and all votes from counting.

Large banner of Trump unfurled at Justice Department headquarters The DOJ has traditionally operated with a degree of separation from the White House to prevent the department's powers from being abused for political purposes.

Trump has turned the Department of Justice into his own personal vendetta machine. And Pam Bondi has been happy to go along for the ride.

We're witnessing the most egregious politicization of the DOJ in recent memory — and I lived through the Nixon years. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

“Hanging that banner should put to rest any doubt that Donald Trump has hijacked the independence of the Justice Department. He — not the American people — is the only client DOJ’s current leadership serves." www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Trump says Republicans will ‘never lose a race’ if Congress restricts voting “We'll never lose a race. For 50 years, we won't lose a race.”

UPDATE: I’ve been at the Northwest Detention Facility for over 3 hours and am still being denied my congressional duty to conduct oversight.

What are they so afraid of that they won't let me meet with detainees?

I will not give up.

Mass departures from Justice Dept. are boon for law firms, legal groups and political campaigns More than 5,000 employees have resigned, retired or been fired​ from the Justice Department in the first year of Mr. Trump's second administration.

As our executive director, Stacey Young, told CBS, nonprofits and firms “are capitalizing on DOJ's idiotic decision to drive out many thousands of brilliant career employees.”

I'm betting we see this in a vindictive prosecution motion from Abbe Lowell within a month.

Reporter: Non-citizen voting fraud is so minimal that the Heritage Foundation, over a more than a decade of studying this, found 24 cases nationwide in which naturalized citizens or immigrants had improperly voted. This is different than what the Trump administration has constantly promoted.

BREAKING: Trump-Noem DHS tells agents to arrest and detain refugees working to obtain green cards, putting tens of thousands of law-abiding refugees at risk.

Sean Hannity is demanding regime change in Iran to stop the country's nuclear program ... which Hannity previously claimed Trump had "obliterated"

Hannity last night: We need to invade Iran because they won't give up their nuclear program.

People kept saying the equal time rule didn’t apply to Colbert because he’s “entertainment.”

Well… reality just tapped the mic.

The FCC is now investigating The View. Under Trump’s FCC, the rules are flexible.

VARNEY: We are told that temperatures of 10 million Kelvin are bad for the human body, is that no longer true?

BURGUM: It's true, but those temperatures are required for nuclear fusion, which powers sunshine. So are those temperatures dangerous or necessary for life? We know it's the latter.

The Epstein administration in Washington refuses to release the remaining files.
If there’s nothing to hide, why keep them classified?
Transparency builds trust. Silence breeds suspicion.
What are they afraid we might see?

BREAKING: Critics warn Donald Trump’s Board of Peace is essentially a slush fund of taxpayer money he controls. There’s just one problem: Transferring billions of taxpayer dollars would require congressional approval.

That hasn't stopped him before. trib.al/WLTvi5F

The Trump administration is spending 3x more to replace things that the United States had already built that the Trump administration broke

Just a reminder that in honor of the most heinous grift in human history, I offer a Board of Peace level of support at my Patreon.

Trump: "I want to let you know that United States is going to make a contribution of $10 billion to the Board of Peace." (Congress has not appropriated this money!)

Hmm. The US is giving $10 billion in taxpayer dollars, not appropriated by Congress, to a fake board set up by the President and which he put himself in charge of *for life*... seems very, very illegal.
