“.. The idea of a high-ranking government official receiving an escort from the SEALs for a recreational swim near the tomb is ‘horrifying,’ said William M. McBride, a Navy veteran and professor emeritus of history at the U.S. Naval Academy ..” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/05/15/u...

The Voting Rights Act ended Jim Crow, but Louisiana vs. Callais is a slap in the face to those who bled for that victory. During Freedom Summer, James Chaney was murdered in Mississippi just for helping Black Americans reclaim their voice at the ballot box.

She’s turned my desk into her corgi refuge - and I’m totally down with that

Our military’s leadership is supposed to look out for the wellbeing of our service members, minimizing as much unnecessary risk to their safety as possible. Yet now, our leaders are doing the exact opposite eroding the very foundations that safety is built upon. www.militarytimes.com/opinion/2026...

@neildegrassetyson.com did you feel the “boom” ? Our house shook in NE Ohio

Except, YOU aren’t the one killing them are you? And YOU aren’t the one paying the ultimate sacrifice.

A lot of folks are just going missing. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/12/u...

“The former DOGE software engineer told co-workers at his new job that he “possessed two tightly restricted databases of U.S. citizens’ information” and was planning to use the information at his new company” techcrunch.com/2026/03/10/d...

One hundred and sixty-five children were killed in a U.S.-Israeli strike on their elementary school. This is an aerial image of the graves being prepared for their bodies. I defy anyone to justify this.

"War isn't Hell. War is war, and Hell is Hell. And of the two, war is a lot worse.... There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. War is chock full of them - little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for some of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander." ~Hawkeye

If you ever need proof that everything connects, big or small, just remember, right now we’re starting wars because a handful of mediocre men thought wealth meant entitlement to women, children, & anything else they wanted, while others knew it and said, “Let me take pictures.”

Speaking as a proud veteran… This is who we are - we don’t bomb schools killing over a hundred young girls while cowering in a ballroom in Mar-a-Lago. youtu.be/xf8aM5zYzNk?...

We have to win the midterms

Nothing says “we support our veterans” like dodging Congress to jam through a new rule that slashes veteran benefits effective immediately. Bypassing congressional oversight to fast-track VA benefit reductions for millions of veterans isn’t reform. It’s betrayal cck-law.com/blog/va-new-...

You need to listen to this one

This “I know where you live” genre is just a small man discovering that intimidation is the closest thing he can get to intimacy. He can’t earn respect, so he tries to rent fear for 30 sec on the internet. Bravo, you found an address. bringmethenews.com/minnesota-ne...

Is bunker code for the basement at Wendy’s ?

I’ve spent the afternoon organizing a list of all the shit I would rather do than to watch the new Melania movie - beginning with… Scrape old oatmeal off a pot that has fused with the metal like it’s entered a lifelong marriage.

From MN today, ICE agent tells protestor, “You raise your voice, I ERASE your voice” These people are power tripping

Treasury just torched every Booz Allen contract after the Trump tax-return leak. 31 contracts. $21M. ~406,000 taxpayers exposed. www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/01/...

You know what’s sad to me (aside from the idiocracy of all of this)? What’s sad to me is how quickly our media have relinquished their responsibilities and integrity. This balance of power doesn’t work without their scrutiny.

An this is the guy with his hands on our nukes.

"He is a combat wounded Iraq War vet, and if someone who has honorably served their country is treated this way by the federal government, by these ICE agents, then how are they treating other people?" Chitwood said. "It's, it's shameful. It is unAmerican to the core” www.kare11.com/article/news...

America watched Kyle Rittenhouse kill people and heard ‘justified.’ Now Renée Good is dead after an ICE shooting, and the REAL crisis is… that someone said the officer’s name on TV.

No such thing as blanket “federal immunity.” No automatic felony for exercising your constitutional rights. No legal doctrine that places ICE above courts, states, or the Constitution. This is an attempt to psychologically pre-authorize escalation by telling officers, “You’re untouchable”.

The man in the video is John Rocker, a former professional baseball player. He has been going to Somali-owned daycare centers in Columbus, asking alarming and inappropriate questions. In this instance, he asked whether the daycare door was BULLETPROOF. He is not even from Ohio.

I’m so sorry @atrupar.com - I felt the same way when the DC sniper shot a child in Bowie, MD. Sadly, this is our own government acting with such recklessly criminal intent that we MUST respond to this as the most urgent National Security threat facing our nation.

Mark Kelly has his retirement pay cut by Pentagon over ‘illegal orders video,’ Pete Hegseth announces l.smartnews.com/p-6UAZQRCo/m... You don’t get to punish a service member - active, reserve, or retired - for repeating the most basic rule: obey lawful orders, refuse unlawful ones. That’s our job.

If this is what “supporting the military” is, melting ICE is #1 priority for 2026. One solution: deport the orange traitor. And his harlot “wife”.

Buddhist monks on their 2,300 mile walk for peace. The group started their walk in Fort Worth, Texas, on Oct. 26. They will finish in Washington, D.C. on Feb. 13. Here they are crossing the Edmund Pettus Bridge. Let every step be a testimony: we do not forget the suffering here - we transform it.

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose

I am calling for Wilmer’s immediate release from NWIPC—he has NO criminal convictions, he poses no threat to the community, and he urgently needs appropriate medical care since ICE is denying him the treatment he requires. I am grateful for Wilmer’s willingness to let me share his story.

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Richard Pryor sitting on Carson with Ohio’s own Dorothy Fuldheim when she said people don’t go hungry in America. I love how he approaches her - no rage, no disrespect. Just the plain, spoken truth. The clip is old, but the problem isn’t. We need to relearn how to communicate with one another.

Remember that scene in All the President’s Men, where Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein clash with editors over whether they have enough verified sourcing to publish explosive claims about the U.S. President being involved in a criminal conspiracy? Holy shit, right?
