Ok, you found me - the odd 🦆duck, the black sheep, the vocal independent who speaks her mind. I love 💫truth and the American way 🇺🇸 I’m not giving either up

A failure of Republican senators who saw the danger and calculated the cost. Their silence isn't acquiescence it's complicity. Political survival over constitutional duty, trading backbone for a seat at the table, empowering the forces that now define their party. They had the power but they folded.

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.
I am not fearful — I am fearless.
We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.
This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.
