She just said what Trump meant is that women in DC are falsely reporting domestic violence against them just to make him look bad on his crime stats.

The GOP governors of South Carolina, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee have all sent their states' National Guard troops to assist Trump's occupation of DC.

All four of those states have cities with crime rates higher than DC.

This was never about "fighting crime."

I get that these guys have no shame, but that doesn’t mean we should give them a pass for it. Shame on Johnson and shame on the Republican Party that won’t call this out even though they know it’s wrong.
Speaker Mike Johnson just called on the Senate to censure...Sen. Alex Padilla.

You read that right.

While Trump crows about supporting mothers & kids, remember...

-His FDA suspended one of its quality-control programs for milk

-He’s trying to repeal limits on lead exposure and cancel grants that protect kids from chemicals

-Car seat and stroller prices are up due to tariffs

was recently told by a scholar of some note that it was out of bounds to compare trump's purge of black people from the federal government to wilson's efforts to resegregate the federal bureaucracy
1/2 Just-dismissed Librarian of Congress, Dr. Carla Hayden, has a PhD from U Chicago, is in numerous scholarly societies, has wide acclaim. She is also first African-American to lead LoC.

The dismissal note did not say "Dear Dr. Hayden" or "Dear Madame Librarian" or even "Dear Carla."

The gift is bad enough on its own, but can we talk about how insane it is to use a foreign-gifted jet as *Air Force One*

Air Force One has a lot of capability that a luxury jet simply doesn’t, and that’s before we even consider the obvious spying/bugging/security concerns.

This isn’t a good idea even if the plane was being donated to the U.S. government. But Trump GETS TO KEEP THE PLANE??? It’s simply a cash payment to Trump in exchange for favors. Just wildly illegal.

Masha Gessen, who lived under Russia’s secret police, is sounding the alarm: the U.S. is now echoing those same authoritarian patterns. Raids, surveillance, fear tactics—it’s not theoretical anymore.

We are watching a police state take root in real time.
