Standing up for what we know is right, defending those who are being unjustly attacked, is absolutely keeping with the heart and soul of what it means to be liberal. Starting a fight to hurt people we don't like, is not.

The U.S. is not known for fixing what we broke. And I'm pretty sure Iran knows this.

"I know where Iran sleeper cells are but I'd rather focus on Somalis in Minneapolis ..." is one hell of a position to take.

Imagine China attacking the U.S. and taking out Trump and Vance and then saying "For good measure we're also taking out Congress, your Generals, half your Governors and a random elementary school."

Pete Hegseth's murderous buffoonery, coming amid a lifetime in which he's betrayed everyone close to him and failed up from one disaster to the next, is a perfect example of how the appeal of Trumpism is that it creates a permission structure for people to openly be their worst selves

NEW: Senate Democrats have struck a deal with Republicans to pass five spending bills that will fund most of the remainder of the fiscal year, as well as a stopgap measure to fund DHS for two weeks while they continue negotiating. It needs unanimous consent.

It amazes me how many men post complaining about Erika Kirk's behaviour since Charlie Kirk was killed, and never once consider maybe Charlie was as horrible of a husband as he was a person, and Erika is finally free from his abuse.

ICE is a threat to public safety. Killing U.S. citizens. Kidnapping Americans. Ignoring the Constitution. That’s not law enforcement — that’s weaponization and abuse of power. And the cruelty starts at the top.
