I know it's hard to track all the threats to democracy out there right now, but this is at the top of the list.

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."

They thought Americans could be scared off by violence and give up on their constitutional liberties. Maybe think again. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Charles Yang of Time for Three absolutely slaying me. I would lose my mind if I heard this live. Even crappy phone speakers made me scream and cry.

May we be up to the task.
A day will come when Donald Trump no longer dominates our politics.
Even though this is obvious, it’s hard to keep in mind.
The future will belong to those who can think clearly about what happens next.

I think it’s worth asking again — and seriously — what exactly do we have a 25th Amendment for if not for this?

This is where we are at. For what? For nothing. For stupidity. For ego. For an old, demented malignant narcissist who expects the world to jump at his every whim. Well, when you follow international news you can see that the world has pretty much had enough of his bullshit.

With Trump going full authoritarian on Venezuela-Greenland, ICE, and the Fed, the response has to be serious. Four Republican senators (Tillis, McConnell, Murkowski, Collins?) could announce they’ll caucus for now with the Dems to give them control of the Senate to check Trump.

Not everyone believed me when I wrote that Trump wants Greenland becuase it would make him feel important, but that's what he told the NYT:
When asked why he needed to possess the territory, he said: “Because that’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success"

This American is for NOT taking an ally’s territory. FDT.
This is where we are. Read this joint statement by France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Denmark on Greenland:
"Greenland belongs to its people. It is for Denmark and Greenland, and them only, to decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland."

A mob incited by Donald Trump attacked the U.S. Capitol to try to overturn an election he lost.
Don’t let them rewrite history. This was an attack on the Constitution and the peaceful transfer of power.
Never forget.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.
I want to make sure this is very clear.
