Man, I'm old enough to remember an absolute fervor over a private email server that basically caused the FBI Director to throw an election.

I am CERTAIN this will recieve a similar response.

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

The literal gutting of Public Integrity under Trump is a little on the nose
NEW: At least three more DOJ Public Integrity Unit senior officials have resigned after meeting with Emil Bove on the Eric Adams case. Five in Public Integrity overall.

That’s six officials who resigned, triple the number that happened during the Saturday Night Massacre.

They are responding, but you just have to look for the news yourself. Don’t expect it to be on the regular news channels. At least not in depth. Press briefing like this have been on almost every day from the Democrats.

When Republicans start openly complaining about how Trump’s cuts are hurting them, complain WITH them. Use it to create a reason to push back against TRUMP, not each other.

The numbers for the resistance are going to have to be more weighted for democracy than the election results were.

"Peaceful protesters" don't prevent access to healthcare. If these terrorists were blocking an ER, would they be treated differently?

Trump is trying to weaken us by allowing his dangerous army of lawless terrorists to feel empowered. We can't give in to this being accepted as the norm.

Research is important, but don’t let it distract from the reality facing California: 18 of the 20 largest wildfires in our history have burned since 2000. This wasn’t because of forest management or zoning.

What’s causing disastrous fires is our changing climate.

Opinion: Are wildfires caused by climate change or something else? The question is flawed
Politicians have an agenda when they bring up forestry management or a Jewish space laser. They're trying to change the subject from fossil-fuel-driven climate change.
