Call Them What They Are The Republican Party has become a haven for Nazi sympathizers.

"If wannabe Nazis now confidently roam the halls of power—and the streets of American cities—it is because Republican leaders have made them feel at home."

The Nazi problem confronting today's Republican Party has roots going back decades.

Correct. Falsifying a signature on official paperwork is fraud and should be reported and investigated by HHS OIG.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.

She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s.

Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Extremist rhetoric is often found in government messaging. Who's the target? In a rare move, the White House recently took down a racist post from one of President Trump's social media accounts. Extremism researchers say it fits a pattern of mainstreaming extremist ideas.

I'm still SHOCKED by the obscene rise in billionaire election spending since Citizens United in the NYT piece, despite already knowing that election corruption w/ $ was profound. (Recall that BCRA fought dangerous campaign $ in *2002*)

The article data didn't have a graph, so I made one to show it.

When thousands of immigration agents flooded Minneapolis late last year, Garrett Guntly had an idea: a network of neighbor-owned security cameras that they could use to monitor ICE activity in the area.

The system has helped neighbors interrupt around a dozen immigrant arrests, Guntly says.

Have some honor and decency. Or don’t.

If America isn't breaking your heart right now, you don't love her enough.

I feel this in my soul. The heartbreak is real. The panic is real. The sleepless nights and nightmares are real. 💔

Looking at what we’ve become is truly soul-crushing. Trump and vile MAGA Republicans must be stopped.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

I think one thing people outside Minnesota don't understand is that after Good and Pretti were killed by feds while observing, the most normal people you could imagine have made peace with the fact that they could be next, and they are still out there because they say it's the right thing to do.

I don’t know that the DOJ lawyers are culpable. We want principled people to stay and keep trying to hold back the worst impulses of the regime. The administration is intentionally making the good people miserable to push them out and replace them with shills.

Daniel Suitor remarks "This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it." The post he refers to is from Fox 9's Paul Blume, and reads "SHOCKING FEDERAL COURT MOMENT: DOJ attorney Julie Le, "the system sucks, this job sucks" to Judge Jerry Blackwell who pressed her on why so many court orders are being ignored by ICE/Trump administration. She asked to be held in contempt just so she could get 24 hours of sleep. @FOX9

The DOJ attorneys are not okay.
I repeat, their attorneys are not okay.
