Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured.
Trump then pardoned the attackers.
He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.

The switch from "Hooray, we are free!" to "Yankee Go Home!", to "Death to America!" will happen so fast your head will spin. The blossom of gratitude withers quickly to bitter grievance when the people realize they have been betrayed and sold out to foreign corporations. #Venezuela

"We will be greeted warmly as liberators." that's what the Bush administration said about Iraq. No real thought was given to the day after liberation and the problems of occupation. The Trump crew should read this book. But we know they won't.

You can watch the 60 Minutes piece (with a link in my story) about the abuse & torture migrants received in the El Salvador gulag after being deported by the Trump regime without due process & lies about their criminality. This horror is what Trump apologist Bari Weiss didn’t want Americans to see.
Bullseye from 60 Minutes journalist Sharyn Alfonsi in response to Bari Weiss: “If the administration’s refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a ‘kill switch’ for any reporting they find inconvenient.”

CBS News' Bari Weiss blocked a rigorous '60 Minutes' story about the brutal CECOT prison. This is not tolerable.

McGovern: "When billionaire CEOs need something, Republicans move at lightning speed. But when it comes to working people needing affordable health care, suddenly the story changes. There's hand wringing and the money is gone. My friends, if you are ok with that, we do not share the same values."

This isn’t enforcement. This is harassment.
They’ve grabbed people off the street for how they look, separated families, and scarred communities with masked agents with guns.
I encourage everyone to do as they have — peacefully protect your neighborhoods and neighbors.

Ordering the killing of anyone incapable of defending themselves or offering any resistance is committing murder. We are supposed to be better than that, we're supposed to be the good guys, and this criminal Hegseth is throwing all our honor into the sewer to serve his master.
“But there can be no conceivable legal justification for what the Washington Post reported earlier today: That U.S. Special Operations Forces killed the survivors of a first strike on a drug boat off the coast of Trinidad who, in the Post’s words, ‘were clinging to the smoldering wreck.’”
