In 2016, Pete Hegseth warned that Trump would pressure the military to break the law and would abandon anyone who upheld the law. They all knew Trump was a threat to lawful command. Their hypocrisy isn't new-it's the whole project.

So thanks to the wonderful tariffs,the farmers in the United States are in debt for over $42Biฤบlion. However,Trump is going to save the farmers with a big $12Billion hand out!! That math where I'm from just doesn't add up. If tariffs are good, why is there a problem? Lol.

A DOJ that protects the powerful over the abused isnโ€™t justice. Itโ€™s despicable.

Iโ€™d take Bidenโ€™s policies over this administrationโ€™s bs everyday and twice on Sunday.

Trump and this adminโ€™s continuous daily shitting on Americans, the grifting, devaluing of human life and the danger he presents to the rest of the world is fucking exhausting.

ICE Goons Pepper Spray Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva During Tucson Raid | Common Dreams "If federal agents are brazen enough to fire pellets directly at a member of Congress, imagine how they behave when encountering defenseless members of our community," Grijalva said.

Congresswoman says she was shoved & pepper-sprayed after identifying herself during ICE operation. "โ€˜When I presented myself as a member of Congress asking for more information, I was pushed aside and pepper sprayed.โ€™" www.commondreams.org/news/adelita...

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedyโ€™s iconic wedding gown.

Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black womanโ€™s talent, Lowe was already designing for Americaโ€™s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

Tell Congress: Support discharge petition to force vote on ACA tax credits Contact Congress today!

Since we canโ€™t ever expect Mike Johnson to do the right thing, weโ€™re forcing a vote on extending ACA tax credits. And we only need four more members to sign the petition to make it happen.

Help us move the needle!

Wow! The Supreme Court basically just said, if you want to do racial gerrymandering, have at it.

Letโ€™s be clear, what Texas did was racial gerrymandering, plain and simple. SCOTUS just opened the floodgates.

It angers me on how SCOTUS always gives him everything. Gerrymandered should be illegal.

SCOTUS has spoken. Right? Every blue state needs to get onboard with this. And hurry the hell up.

If gerrymandering were illegal nationwide, Republicans would struggle to hold the House at all. The only thing propping them up all these years are rigged maps.

The next unemployment report will be released on December 16.
The next inflation report will be released on December 18.
The next GDP release will be on December 19.
Thatโ€™s how long it will take for us to know whatโ€™s going on in our own fxxxing country.

Hegseth's "fog of war" claim is nonsense, if this account of what video shows is correct: The two men obviously were visible.

Tom Cotton's claims also in doubt: Rep Smith says drugs not visible. The decision that the men were still in the fight looks very shaky:

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released.

โ€œAnd I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.โ€
