"They are not helpful! There was no reason for them to be here in the first place. If anything, it was a provocation." L.A. Mayor Karen Bass @mayor.lacity.gov makes clear that the presence of the National Guard in her city is not a helpful thing.

Trump has federalized the Guard, threatened governors, and now wants active-duty Troops in our streets.

The most important story of our time is not what Donald Trump wants to do, but what the people of this country allow him to do.

Trump bears the bulk of the blame for the unprecedented global economic crisis now unfolding. But let’s not ignore the role played by the hideously bad judgment of the business and financial leaders who supported Trump and didn’t realize this was an inevitable outcome.

Here I react to the shameful behavior of American leaders and media toward the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

So let’s see, Trump has been President for a week and now we are fighting with Canada, Greenland, Mexico, Denmark, Panama, Colombia, and pretty much the entire EU.

It does seem that Viktor Orban and Netanyahu now likes us more though, so there’s that.

The central core of Trumpism is voter suppression and election subversion. Too many people only pay attention to this right before elections and forget it once elections are over.

We must take this threat literally and seriously if we want to have free and fair elections in the future.
