It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

President for Life Donald Trump is trying to amass the powers of a king.

Donald Trump is clearly willing to do whatever it takes to stay in power, regardless of what the Constitution says. He β€œhas always told us exactly who he is,” J. Michael Luttig argues. β€œWe have just not wanted to believe him. But we must believe him now.”

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."

Sharing because it really got me emotional. Here is to all those folks fighting to give their kids a better life than they had.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

The flew the entire military leadership in so they could see for themselves that the Secretary of Defense is a mouthbreathing dipshit and the Commander in Chief is a senile, weak old man who might keel over at any moment.

This current American presidential administration is run by people who are quite obviously mentally ill, and we need to start talking about that.

No, Donald. The record is clear: Erik Siebert resigned, in writing. Your ham-fisted β€˜I fired him!’ claim is contradicted by Exhibit Aβ€”his letter. Objection sustained: that’s not firing, it’s flailing. This is still a country of laws.
