Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Before Donald Trump nominated Kevin Warsh to be his sock puppet at the Fed, he was spinning fairy tales about prices coming down under the President.

Wes Moore on redistricting: "You know who started this? It wasn't Gavin Newsom. It was Donald Trump, when Donald Trump first contacted Texas and said 'I need you to find me additional congressional seats.' And they went into a backroom with a sharpie and started redrawing maps."

The Guardian has a rough outline of what the Tulsi whistleblower complaint is about: NSA found someone close to Trump in contact with foreign intelligence, and rather than doing something about that, Tulsi brought the report to Susie Wiles.

Always interesting and always informative, Greg Olear's Sunday Pages this week––an important essay on Winston Churchill and his speeches as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom––reminds us all to cede no ground to fascism.

It reminds us that we must all speak up and speak out.

…the truth is that I have had it with Trump since 2016 & thousands of times since, but I do not think the Obama ape video is this nation hitting a bottom. He is measurably worse every few days. The question is, What do we do?
