On the fourth anniversary of the Jan 6 riots in 2021- A powerful speech by Pamela Hemphill, one of 1500 people pardoned by Trump for their participation in the attack on the Capitol. She formally refused Trump's pardon. She has been attacked and doxed by MAGA. This is integrity. via @cbsnews.com

An image I’ll never forget.

Whenever I see this picture, my eyes well up. Eugene Goodman, Capitol police officer, diverted a crowd of bloodthirsty rioters in the Capitol during the bloody J6 insurrection from the US Senate chambers. He is a great American hero. 🇺🇸 #ProudBlue #Pinks #EugeneGoodman #Capitol

History doesn’t punish the people who believe lies. It punishes the people who keep repeating them...after they’ve been exposed.

You can listen live to the hearing held only by Democrats to commemorate the 5th anniversary of January 6th. It speaks volumes about the state of our democracy that no Republican Members of Congress are participating here, in what should be a bipartisan event. www.youtube.com/live/EUEmzBY...

Trump floats the idea of canceling future elections

Not crazy to say there was a much clearer criminal case against MBS, who ordered the murder of an American newspaper columnist, than there is against Maduro.

A direct line connects Trump’s attempted coup five years ago with his incursion into Venezuela last weekend — and his current threats to Colombia, Cuba, and Greenland. Let me explain... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-threat-to-civilization

Mark Kelly just slammed Pete Hegseth for being the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in American history.

It should have been put to rest 5 years ago today. Justice failed. But we will persevere & defeat that orange pig.

Gunther Fehlinger, chairman of the Austria Committee for NATO Enlargement, to United States: "If you take it, we will take every single base of the US from Aviano to Ramstein, from Romania to all the other military bases, will be confiscated and you will lost it." "If you go extreme, we go extreme"

Here is what I wrote five years ago. How different the world would be if my recommendations had been followed. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Burgum: "I think the way the relationship is gonna develop with the Venezuelan leadership is gonna be one where the US is gonna play a very strong role. We're gonna have our presence there and we're gonna be able to have our fingers on the dial in terms of how the revenues are flowing."

The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

It’s been 5 years since over 140 Capitol police were violently assaulted by Trump’s mob. Republicans dismissed it as political discourse. The assailants were all pardoned by Trump. Many of them went on to commit more crimes. It will remain one of the most shameful days in American history.

This is where we are. Read this joint statement by France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Denmark on Greenland: "Greenland belongs to its people. It is for Denmark and Greenland, and them only, to decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland."

NEVER FORGET 5 YEARS AGO 🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon who incites political violence, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did 🩸🩸🩸

On January 6th, 2021, when Trump incited an insurrection, America's corporate leaders rushed to distance themselves from him. Today, as Trump destroys our democracy at home and stages more coups abroad, they're sucking up to him to pad their own bottom lines. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC0v...

Never forget. 🇺🇸

What a disgrace.

1% Right before Christmas, we were told there were 2 million more Epstein files. Then we found out there were actually 5 million. So where are they? RELEASE THE REST OF THE EPSTEIN FILES

From the AP: "Republican Doug LaMalfa, a seven-term U.S. representative from California, has died, GOP officials said Tuesday. His death reduces the Republicans’ already narrow control of the House to 218 seats to Democrats’ 213." apnews.com/article/rep-...

Ex-NATO General Michel Yakovleff: “If Trump moves on Greenland, Europeans must be ready to fight the US to defend sovereignty.” "We must be ready to fight the US if they threaten European interests."

STEWART: “Trump removed a dangerous foreign dictator from power — not THAT one, they’re actually friends (and quite frankly I think business partners)… not that one either…” 😬

Five years later, January 6 still matters. Not just because of what happened—but because of what happens if we decide we’ve already heard enough. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

As Administration officials seem to be struggling with this, let us say it again: it is illegal to use the U.S. military to invade a foreign country without the authorization of Congress and is a violation of international law. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Jack Smith had enough evidence to convict Trump for inciting an insurrection and instead Trump was allowed to run out the clock, get a Supreme Court to grant him immunity, and was then inaugurated at the Capitol where he incited an insurrection on January 6, pardoning all who participated.

This is the image of the Republican National Convention which I will never forget.

TAPPER: “So you won’t take it off the table that 🇺🇸 won’t use military force to seize Greenland?” STEPHEN MILLER: *laughs*, says nobody would fight us for it — despite European nations saying it would end NATO (which Putin would love) Bottom line: The guardrails are gone

New — I wrote about how corporate media is immediately siding with power in the wake of Trump attacking Venezuela and capturing Maduro, and how journalists need to treat the administration as a hostile entity that’s openly lying to them.

To Denmark and Greenland: 100 Danish forces deployed to Desert Storm. They stood with us defending sovereignty and international law. Now I watch Stephen Miller mock you on TV while my government threatens to invade Greenland. I'm a veteran and I'm ashamed beyond words. I'm so sorry.

I compiled some thoughts on Venezuela, and more importantly, the insane rhetoric since the attack. Unlocked for everyone: www.patreon.com/posts/147513...

Pretty wild how fast MAGA went from “no new wars!” to “Invade Venezuela, bomb Iran, bomb Nigeria, destabilize Cuba, attack Colombia, threaten Mexico, and annex Greenland!!”

Don’t stop talking about the Epstein files. Don’t stop talking about the Epstein files. Don’t stop talking about the Epstein files. Don’t stop talking about the Epstein files. Don’t stop talking about the Epstein files. Don’t stop talking about the Epstein files. Don’t stop…

Global backlash after the U.S. invasion of Venezuela at an emergency UN meeting. Trump stonewalls the Epstein files and "misses" a key deadline . Hegseth censures Mark Kelly. And more. Watch the MeidasTouch Podcast live at 8p ET/5p PT!

Cassidy should have thought about that before he voted to confirm the deadly menace known as RFK Jr.

130,000 Alabamans are about to lose their health insurance as a direct result of the “One big beautiful bill”, and a Florida man is tweeting like it’s some kind of win. If you live in the state, call Sen. Tuberville and tell him what’s on your mind: 202-224-3121

Trump and his congressional lapdogs sabotaged health care — making it more expensive!

ICYMI: Signed by @governor.ca.gov Gavin Newsom, California just gave its 40 million residents a permanent delete button for a largely covert part of the personal data economy. privacy.ca.gov/drop

The NY Comic Book “reporting” on made up MAGA numbers like they’re facts…and yet people wonder why trust in news is low…

MENINGITIS ACROSS GENERATIONS AGAIN

SEN. KELLY: “How many generations of Donald Trump’s family have served in the military? ZERO.”

"American dominance" is our new foreign policy. And it will create a counter-reaction, everywhere. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

It is truly insane to me that our system has the means to end this insanity but the people who can effect it refuse to…even though we are now at a point where in cannot possibly be in their own interest to keep supporting this shitshow

The notion that Mark Kelly committed sedition by telling troops to follow only legal orders is insane And Hegseth's attempt to take away his retirement pay because he exercised his First Amendment rights to ensure our troops FOLLOW THE LAW is vindictive Hopefully Kelly will challenge its legality

Trump has dragged America into what could be a very long and violent conflict in Venezuela. His warmongering will only enrich the military-industrial complex at everyone else's expense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnR84h7t5kI

I stand with Senator Mark Kelly.

President of Mexico Sheinbaum: "America does not belong to a doctrine or a power. The American continent belongs to the peoples of each of the countries that make it up. Let it be clear: Mexico defends the sovereignty of the countries of Latin America.”
