Investigating elected officials for speech is not law enforcement but intimidation. If governors and mayors can be investigated for criticizing federal actions, neither elected officials nor anyone else is truly free to speak. #holdfast

Every major news organization should be writing about how insane this is and how, if he takes this country to war (tomorrow?), it is the act of a madman.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

There are ways to mitigate and adapt to extreme events, like stopping the burning of fossil fuels and building early warning systems (or not firing people who make forecasts and coordinate with local officials), but prayer is not one of them.

Love Sen. Murphy’s candor
WATCH: Sen. Chris Murphy on the intel report showing the U.S. strikes on Iran nuclear program were not as effective as Trump claimed: "We were supposed to get a briefing today. It got canceled. I think it got canceled because they are trying to figure out how to lie their way out of this mess."

Sen. Mike Lee should resign
This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.
A top staffer to Sen. Tina Smith emailed Sen. Mike Lee’s top staffers on Monday about “how much additional pain you’ve caused on an unspeakably horrific weekend”

Another sign that the dollar’s dominance is in trouble: US importers are increasingly being asked by their foreign counterparties to settle transactions in currencies other than the US dollar, such as euros, RMB, Mexican pesos, and Canadian dollars.

Habeas Corpus dates back to the Magna Carta of 1215, No man shall be imprisoned or exiled except by the lawful judgment of his peers or the law of the land.
“Habeas corpus is the legal principle that requires the government to provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people. If not for that protection, the government could simply arrest people, including American citizens, and hold them indefinitely for no reason.”
Does Kristi Noem even know what habeas corpus is?
The Homeland Security secretary's word salad raised even more questions about the administration's assault on fundamental rights.

We’re living in the weirdest chapter in history
Ashli Babbitt was a terrorist. She was justifiably shot and killed because she was part of a mob trying to murder people in the furtherance of a treasonous plot. The US government, as currently constructed, believes that's a person who should be vindicated and that her family should be rewarded.
