We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.
The Survival of Democracy Depends on Our Willingness to Fight
Justice Riggs is right. We should not have to fight for democracy. But the reality is that we must.

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.

I am not a lawyer, but I consider myself pretty well informed.
You hear the phrase “Constitutional Crisis” tossed around a lot for various lesser events. We are there now.
When the Trump administration ignores court orders, due process and the Constitution, we are there. Judges are our only hope

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency

Exactly. No is a complete sentence
Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"

Pete Hegseth isn’t DEI. Daniel Penny isn’t DEI. That’s not what DEI is.
They’re just grossly unqualified for their jobs and add no value that any replacement legacy job applicant wouldn’t bring.
So stop saying “it’s DEI” like it’s a clever commentary on the situation. It’s not.
