Kamala Harris warned us that Trump would turn the military against civilians. She warned us that he would pursue Project 2025. The media mocked her, but she was dead right about both.

A police officer was killed in the attack on the CDC by an antivaxxer. Trump did not mention it. Use this as a benchmark to compare how the Trump administration responds to an attack on an ICE facility to judge which federal employees are deemed worth protecting.

Police officers are killing more Americans than then they did five years ago when they killed George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. Too many people have been deluded into believing the problem is the problem solvers, the perpetrators are the victims, and the treatment is the disease.

Listen. I believe ardently in criticizing our leaders for their failures and inaction but if you refuse to acknowledge their efforts when they do make them and if you refuse to recognize a step in the right direction, you don’t really want change. You just want to complain.
