Trump's rants against Democrats have inspired everything from death threats and pipe bombs to the January 6th assault on the Capitol.
This is a time to take him literally and seriously.

Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."
Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

Another way of putting it is that at some point, what were once discrete, chosen preferences become *culture* - the background habits and ways of thinking that are determined for you simply because you were born in a place. Do most Italians think Catholicism is true? Do most Japanese like sushi?

Is it a threat to free speech when the President of the United States threatens to yank the broadcast license of a channel whose reporters are asking him challenging questions?
I ask because I feel like there used to be tons of pundits worried about free speech. Where'd they go?

Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

From this talk I learned that without the nearly immediate and complete end of emissions, the latest modeling shows that the tipping point will be crossed in 2050.

We're back in court today defending Alabama birth centers from unnecessary regulations that threaten their existence.
Birth centers provide essential prenatal care to people with low incomes and people in rural areas. Our leaders must make it easier, not harder, to receive reproductive care.

The American car industry quite deliberately designs its products so that they kill people. They know this. They are not ignorant of how their products work.

Trigger warning.
“In crashes, SUVs are more likely to strike vital organs in the core of adults’ bodies & heads of children. Hitting pedestrians above their center of gravity means they’re more likely to be knocked forward & down and then be driven over.”
Plus more likely to hit in the 1st place.

Codifying the Constitution’s Emoluments Clauses
To prevent corruption, the Constitution prohibits the president and other officials from receiving untoward benefits. Congress, however, must take action to enable enforcement.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.
