Let’s be clear: the Pentagon has NEVER passed an audit, why should we reward them with even more money? As Co-Chair of the Defense Spending Reduction Caucus, I will keep fighting to expose and end this wasteful spending.

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him?
No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens.
Fascism is here.

Leavitt: "When America is punched, he punches back harder. That's why there will be 104% tariffs going into effect on China tonight at midnight. But the president believes that Xi and China want to make deal, they just don't know how to get that started."

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points.
And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

Remembering for some reason how surprised everyone was at how quickly and comprehensively the USSR disintegrated, like it had already rotted from the inside and all that was left was a facade that seemed impressive and enduring but was hollow as papier-mache.
