It's now been four weeks since the deadline set by law and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Investigating elected officials for speech is not law enforcement but intimidation. If governors and mayors can be investigated for criticizing federal actions, neither elected officials nor anyone else is truly free to speak. #holdfast

JUST IN: AG Pam Bondi deletes a post touting a chart as proof of the Trump administration's success in reducing drug overdosesā€”after being informed the data actually reflected the *Biden* administrationā€™s record.

If people admire you, they put your name on buildings. If you have to do it yourself, wellā€¦ thatā€™s different.

If youā€™re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Hereā€™s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertreich/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united?r=14rrh9&utm_medium=ios

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.

BREAKING: WELL, WELL, WELL! Newly unearthed footage shows Pete Hegseth saying EXACTLY what the six Democrats said in their video that prompted Trump and Hegseth to hysterically smear them as traitors!
You must refuse illegal orders.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.

Whatā€™s its key example? Wait for it . . . Itā€™s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean

TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting

Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?

TRUMP: You're just asking questions because you're a stupid person

Trump never had a fan base.

He had an army of bots who sold his racism and misogyny and xenophobia to uneducated Americans who took voting advice from bald eagle profiles posting Tweets from Eastern Europe.

Itā€™s as stupid as it sounds.

The targeting of Mark Kelly isnā€™t politics...itā€™s the sick new normal created by a movement that canā€™t win arguments, only intimidate. When public servants become targets, freedom isnā€™t next in lineā€¦ itā€™s already in danger. Fortunately, the outrage is intensifying rapidly.
