Dem veterans reminded servicemembers to refuse illegal orders.

Trump responded by accusing them of “sedition,” labeling them “traitors” and suggesting that they’re subject to arrest — all before raising the possibility *of capital punishment*. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
White House targets Democratic veterans who told troops to refuse illegal orders
In theory, the Democratic video shouldn’t have been especially controversial. In practice, Team Trump’s pushback has been over the top.

The federal government just dismissed charges against this woman who it had accused of deliberately attacking its agents and trying to kill them. Instead, it now appears they tried to murder her. Will Chicago or Illinois police prosecute?

This is part of a pattern we have documented this year at The New York Times. Dads (President Trump, Steve Witkoff and Howard Lutnick) doing government work. As their sons push ahead with related family businesses, cashing in. (This story from May)

Important to notice: killing random people at sea has a purpose: desensitize the electorate to the dictator killing people. Which can then turn into normalizing threats to kill political opponents, which then leads to actual political executions.

From pardoning MAGA insurrectionists who brought a noose to the Capitol, to urging that members of Congress be hanged, Trump is dangerously spiraling.

What have Republicans in Congress got to say about this?

This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:

“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.

In a year in which the VP argued that "America is not just an idea," it's worth returning to the Gettysburg Address, delivered on this day 162 years ago.
