Pete Hegseth has published three books in four years. Jonathan Chait spent the last week reading them—and concluded that Hegseth is almost certainly the most dangerous of Trump's cabinet picks. theatln.tc/s24Z8tF4

It’s incredible that Gaetz was (rightly) forced away from a position as AG because of sexual abuse allegations yet we have a PRESIDENT who was found guilty by a jury of sexual abuse and it doesn’t seem to be any sort of a problem.

Remember this. We are weaker now. “Trump has groomed us.” Try to hold and speak and advocate what you know is right and true. We’ve already moved so far. Don’t change your standards to accommodate their shameless incompetence & cruelty.

“The crowd might be thought of as the ‘people’—a concept that might merit approval, as in ‘We, the People,’ or abhorrence, as when the Nazis promoted the purity of the Volk, whose blood was being poisoned by outsiders.”

In this “new natalist moment,” the top lawyers of 3 states feel free to call openly on the federal courts to make women have more babies! They have chosen Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk (N.D. Tex), one of the most openly anti-abortion judges on the bench. Watch this space.

Interesting how Republicans and Elon have gone from decrying government suggestions that social media posts be moderated to them openly threatening entire new organizations with criminal prosecution for thei free speech.
