If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

It’s fascinating the way you have turned your family group chat into content for the internet.
Ah hah! Finally someone used “radical transparency” in a sentence. No thirdway bucks for you!!!!!!!!
One of the contradictions of Trump is that he’s always lying but he’ll also just come out and state his plans plainly knowing no one is willing or able to stop him. Complete artifice meets radical transparency

I for one cannot wait to see what truly unhinged things New Jerseyans will do to protest this. Have you met New Jersey? (Note—no matter how long I live in Philly, I am a Jersey Grrl (TM) till I die.)
NEW: Pete Hegseth sent a letter to Congress on Tuesday announcing that the Department of Defense will allow DHS to detain immigrants on two military bases: Fort Atterbury in Indiana and Fort Dix in New Jersey.
There is no further detail at this time as to when or how this will be done.
