Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Trump continues to mislead the American public about inflation. He has said it reached its highest rate during the Biden administration. It was much higher in the 40's, 70's and 80's. He also said it's about to hit 1.5%. It's currently at 3.0% so that's highly unlikely.

After taking over CBS, oligarchs like David Ellison have taken the once-trusted news outlet and turned into Trump's propaganda machine. I react to the changes at CBS and the misinformation being shared by major media outlets.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson issued an administrative stay in the SNAP benefits case. She had to do this—it’s procedure.
The First Circuit has to issue its ruling on the stay request (“with dispatch”.)
It ends in 48hrs.

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.
That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.
It looks a lot more like preparation for war.
Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.
Remove him from office.
