United we stand. Saying things doesn't make them true; my faith is in facts. Fairness fan, quant. I want an economy and country that works for all. Democracy is not a spectator sport. ⚖️🇺🇲🗳️

Sen. Roger Marshall, on MS NOW, says he doesn't know the "details" and can't comment on Trump's pardon of a former Honduran leader who was convicted of major drug trafficking. That's the go-to move by GOP lawmakers these days: ignorance of things that they're being paid to know about.

Q: You outlined the dangers posed by drugs. So what explanation do you have for Trump pardoning the former president of Honduras?
SEN. ROGER MARSHALL: I don't know the details. Happy to look into it. I can't speak to it
Q: Alright. Um. Ok. Like, no thought on it?
MARSHALL: I haven't researched it

Well, an independent investigation now confirms it: Hegseth endangered the lives of American pilots during Signalgate.
Our servicemembers deserve leaders who never put them at unnecessary risk. If Hegseth had a shred of decency, he’d resign.

How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

BREAKING: Trump’s ICE bans Christians and all people from praying “in front of or inside” the Broadview ICE facility.
So, forced prayer in school is good, but volunteer prayer for the prisoner is banned.
This is what white nationalist Christianity looks like. This is Trump’s fascist America. Smh.
