NEW: Following TikTok’s sale to a Trump-aligned business group, our office has received reports — and independently confirmed instances — of suppressed content critical of President Trump.
It’s time to investigate.

This is extrajudicial murder. It’s a paramilitary execution of an unarmed civilian in cold blood. Horrifying.

When Trump lied and slandered European troops by saying that they avoided the front lines in Afghanistan, it was no mistake. It was a deliberate attempt to run down NATO in American eyes, to try and condition the American people to accept the end of the alliance.

2. There’s a basic metric by which you can tell who in politics are your allies and who are your enemies: whether they support or oppose the extreme concentration of wealth. Those who support it (let’s call them Group 1) are the political right. Those who oppose it (Group 2) are the political left.
