Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

One little item in Trump’s so-called “peace plan” for Ukraine just jumped out at me:

“Russia to rejoin the G8”.

This is typical Trumpy arrogance. How does the US get to unilaterally decide to return Russia to the group? Does no one else have a vote? Canada would certainly oppose it.

Obeying Putin like the slave he is, Trump is trying to bully Ukraine into accepting Russia’s demands to surrender. He threatens to withdraw U.S. weapons and intelligence sharing from Ukrainian defenders.

It won’t work. The U.S. will be humbled and humiliated by Russia yet again.

I genuinely think one thing that trips up folks on the left is that they can't imagine not sharing certain core values. Lemme explain. Here's an intuition pump:

Say you're in negotiations with counterparty X. And there are two possible deals on the table ...

Leaving teaching to enlist and be a medic at the front was an incredibly difficult decision but I do not regret it. In fact, I'm still always teaching in one way or another and guest teach when I can.

Be the difference. You never know the impact you have.

Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. 

Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around.

When I reported for duty at Naval Station Great Lakes, I never imagined that some day a US President would seek to use it as a base for surveillance and enforcement activity on American soil. Our military was not set up to cater to the whims of a would-be American dictator.

The first group of immigrants has arrived at a new “camp” deep in the Florida Everglades, where officials are openly describing it as “concentrating” certain people in one area. Have you seen the photos of the flooding? This entire site is a human rights violation.

A reminder: FEMA is no longer going door-to-door to assist disaster victims

[From our Climate Desk partner @wired.com]
FEMA will no longer go door-to-door to assist disaster victims
The move, says one agency worker, will “severely hamper our ability to reach vulnerable people.”

Remember when the White House trotted out their mouthpieces while pretending that they were gonna release Epstein's client list? I wonder how it feels to have fooled the rubes in their party.

Pam Bondi in February: The Epstein client list is sitting on my desk right now to review.

Pam Bondi today: There is no Epstein client list and no "further disclosure" of Epstein-related material "would be appropriate or warranted."
