What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

Paxton's antics have nothing to do with "Antifa" It's about defeating Cornyn. It's the battle for who can be more Trumpy.

Most of them STILL haven’t figured out yet that the old rulebook has already been shredded by Republicans.

These are unprecedented times, and few Congressional Democrats are rising to meet them.

I couldn’t tell if they were Meal Team 6, or some other collection of Gravy Seals.

Hegseth demands that everyone in the military demonstrate fitness.

ICE apparently requires that everyone demonstrate fatness.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

A foundational principle of this country is that the military shouldn’t police our communities β€” and a federal judge agrees.

It seems clearβ€”I think to everyone, nowβ€”that a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do β€” hold power to account, not capitulate to it.
