It’s sad that “soldiers shouldn’t commit crimes” is a brave position for a Republican to take.

I'm sorry, why are the media giving cover to the president by saying that the escalation in the Caribbean vis-à-vis Venezuela is about drugs? It's clearly about the fact that Venezuela has the largest oil reserves in the world and a regime change to privatize those benefits Trvmp and his donors.

Trump’s authoritarian tendencies are rooted, at least in part, in the idea that governmental power must be concentrated in his hands, to be executed as he sees fit.
It makes his apparent cluelessness that much more alarming.

It wasn't fake. It was edited. But Reagan really did spend a five-minute speech – an April 25, 1987, national radio address that the Reagan Library has published on YouTube – to rail against tariffs. It was a full-throated expression of support for free and fair trade.

For those of you keeping score, 18-22 year-old students calling for an end to slaughter in Gaza are so racist they need to be expelled or deported, but 24-35 year-olds celebrating Hitler, rape, and, um, racism are just kids being kids so chill.
Also, racism is over so no need for Voting Right Act.

What middle and upper class cis het white people need to understand is that they only have as many rights as the most vulnerable do. You have only the rights trans people and immigrants do.
Do you really have any rights if they are openly saying they will just make up reasons to detain you?
Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.
As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

Jail terms for librarians? Banning private employers from conducting employee diversity trainings? Culture war politics is nothing new in states like Texas and Florida, but punitive enactments are giving it a harder edge.
Texas and Florida have become national models for using the police state to wage culture war battles
From library books to abortion, gender, and even food, the culture war is now feeding the police state.

Leaving aside the creepy implication that "traditional political violence" is OK and this is somehow different ... they're still insinuating that this attack came from "the left" and "the left" bears responsibility on the whole, even though everything we know suggests he was somewhere on the right.

I’m a broken record on this, but — there are so many examples of famous people radicalised by midlife career/personal knockbacks. Ant Middleton was on yday’s march. He got done for tax offences and lost his TV work. Now he’s mates with Tommy Robinson.

It was actually my intention to be unkind and unhelpful to the Nazis I have correctly referred to as Nazis.
Comparing people to Nazis may be unkind and unhelpful but worth noting it is also protected speech under the First Amendment
Trump: "For years those on the radical left have compared wonderful Americans like Charlie to Nazis. This kind of rhetoric is directly responsible for the terrorism we're seeing in our country & it must stop right now. My admin will find each and every one of those who contributed to this atrocity"
