Today the Pentagon censured Senator Mark Kelly and moved to strip part of his earned military retirement benefits for stating the truth.

This administration is trying to convince Americans that truth is whatever it says it is—even when the evidence is plainly in front of us.

Despite efforts by Felon Trump & MAGA to erase January 6th from our memories, we will never forget.

NPR’s @tomdreisbach.bsky.social joins me to talk about the public archive created to preserve the history of that day & how the government continues to lie about 1/6.

Despite a statutory deadline requiring all of the files to be released by Dec. 19, 5.2 million documents remain to be reviewed and disclosed. It’s likely that the final public release will not occur until the end of February — one full year after Pam Bondi ordered the release of the records.
For Trump, the Epstein Cover-Up Beats the Truth
As one of her first acts as Attorney General, Pam Bondi wrote a letter to the new head of the FBI, Kash Patel, demanding that the “full and complete Epstein files” be delivered to her office by the ne...

It was only 5 months ago that Trump said he would only go after the worst of the worst. Now they are disappearing people including U.S. citizens. Next they want to create a national database of citizens. Will states send back individual voting data?

If anyone thinks they are safe, they are wrong.

This is generally how I feel about the "free buses" idea. If Mamdani tries and only gets, say, 10 free bus routes and has to compromise by instead providing dedicated bus lanes and other things that improve service, that's a win! We should want elected officials to attempt bold things.
on Mamdani's city-run groceries idea, "laboratories of democracy" are one of the great U.S. strengths - even if you don't think it's likely to work, it's really interesting to see it tested. Maybe it'll be really successful! Maybe it'll fail for reasons we don't expect!
