If any branch of the military truly wanted to keep Americans safe, they would physically remove every politician Trump appointed as well as Trump himself and Vance. Those are the domestic enemies they swore to protect us from.

I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.

Democrats overperformed in the Georgia special election: Republican Clayton Fuller beat Democrat Shawn Harris 56% to 44%. Marjorie Taylor Greene won the same district by nearly 30 points in 2024. Trump carried it in '24 by nearly 40 points.

Just sent out this free midweek update. This was no ordinary Trump TACO, this was Trump accepting Iran's victory conditions as the basis of negotiations. It looks likely that Iran will emerge stronger from this war than before; a total US strategic failure.

Of course. The Supreme Court moved to open the door for throwing out the contempt conviction of Steve Bannon, Trump’s longtime political ally. The justices acted at the request of the Trump administration, which had pushed the court to help erase the conviction from his record.
