📣The exchange between 🇺🇦Volodymyr Zelenskyy and an 🇺🇸 American WWII veteran at DDay ceremony reflects today's fight against fascism and the historical parallels.

The new ‘Wicked’ is unmistakably a parable about the Wizard (Trump) lying to the people of Oz (🇺🇸) to fearmonger as he persecutes a marginalized element of society (immigrants).

Hopefully that won’t be lost on those who most need to hear it. www.cnn.com/2025/11/22/e...

Rep. Jasmine Crockett has released receipts that reveal that ProPublica has reported that Kristi Noem secretly diverted hundreds of millions of dollars in Department of Homeland Security funds to a consulting firm affiliated with her own campaign.

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given.

The same is true for everyone who swear their oath.

Hope that clears things up.

Just so we’re ALL clear: the President of the United States made death threats toward sitting Democratic members of Congress.

But they’re always claiming Democrats are the dangerous ones, right?

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

The Pentagon has decided that Swastikas and nooses are cool now, and no longer considered symbols of hate. So if you're Jewish or black, and bunking with Nazis, well you'll just have to be OK with that because Nazis aren't bad anymore and bigotry is acceptable.

Authoritarians rise when fear wins and truth goes quiet.

Not today.

A president calling for death penalties against lawmakers is a red line and the Uniform Code of Military Justice exists to stop exactly this kind of abuse.

Protect the troops.
Defend the law.

A House panel is holding a hearing on a proposed ban on Congressional stock trading.

This ban is long overdue. Why should members of Congress be able to use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you?

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Have you seen this good news?

The #Resistance is strong in NC!

There's a lot of terrible news out there, but there are also things to be grateful for & this awesome show of resistance to #ICELawlessness in Charlotte, North Carolina is one of them.

Thank you, Charlotte!

Do you live in the Charlotte area? Know someone who does? One of the most important things you can do is get a whistle & tell your family & friends & neighbors to do the same. If people blow their whistle when they see CBP that takes away CBP’s ability to surprise vulnerable people.
