Malcom Kenyatta reminds us that we’re not the first to fight these battles.

“It’s critical for us to remember what the hell we’re made of.”

I remember when Schumer refused to bring the Military Justice Improvement Act to the floor. It had 66 yes votes. I never got an answer as to why. They ended up watering it down and folding it into the NDAA.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced the Trump administration’s defiance of an explicit court order, deporting Venezuelans to a concentration camp in a third country, El Salvador—which also happens to violate a lot of really good international laws.

Day by day, we come closer to the moment when a Trump official expressly defies a federal court order and the judge runs out of patience, holds the official in contempt, and orders them jailed. But the US marshals work for AG Bondi. So . . .

Mark is beloved by millions of kids, which makes it particularly great that he’s teaching them how to inform their parents that Tesla is a danger to children. This is another one of those “we don’t need a ‘Rogan of the left’, we need normal men” examples.

I am devastated to hear of the passing of former Congresswoman Nita Lowey—a trailblazer and champion for working people.

Her legacy will live on in the hearts of New Yorkers and people across the country.

My thoughts are with her family and loved ones during this time.

“Venezuela’s government on Sunday rejected the use of Trump’s declaration of the law, characterizing it as evocative of ‘the darkest episodes in human history, from slavery to the horror of the Nazi concentration camps.’” The law applies only to wars declared by Congress.

It’s unreal - the DOD deleted its page for Charles Calvin Rodgers, a Medal of Honor recipient who was wounded three times while defending against three assaults on his base in Vietnam. Now the URL includes “DEI Medal of Honor.” There’s something about Rodgers I don’t even have to tell you

"dei medal" you might as well just put "n*gger medal" because that's what they mean to say
This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."
