This is great propaganda for the Maduro regime, supporting the claim that Trump wants to overthrow the current Venezuelan dictatorship in order to replace it with a new Trump dictatorship -- for the purpose of "taking the oil," as Trump likes to put it.
Bessent: "If something happens down in Venezuela, we could really see oil prices go down even more."

This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousands—if not more—is immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.

Trump desperate to become a petro-dictator like his buds MBS and Putin.
Rep. Salazar: "We're gonna be doing a favor to us, to our children, to our economy, to our oil companies to be able to liberate. And to Venezuelans who wants to be free."

Law abiding is not something any one would associate with Trump. He’s a convicted felon.

Just want to remind everyone that Mike Flynn told a crowd of rabid QAnon troglodytes in no uncertain terms that the military should conduct a coup in order to reinstall Trump as an unelected dictator, and he never once was subject to the penalties that the UCMJ demands for that sort of thing

This is a huge win that you might have missed last week: we successfully pressured airlines to shut down their data broker, which was selling passenger data to the government without a court order. I'm going to keep at it until other industries to follow suit.
After 404 Media's months-long reporting and pressure from lawmakers, the data broker owned by the U.S.’s major airlines will now shut down a program in which it sold access to hundreds of millions of flight records to the government and let agencies track peoples’ movements without a warrant.

I think people have this idea that impeachment works like a discharge petition. Get 218 votes in favor, and they get their hearings in the house.

And it doesn't. The only thing they could do is force Johnson to send it to Jim Jordan, who would promptly ignore it.

Just like he's ignoring these.

I want Trump gone as much as the next person, but anyone running for congress that centers conviction & removal as an achievable thing needs to first be asked if they can count to 67 and secondly how they propose getting to that number in the senate.

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

Violating the First Amendment to hide the record of all their violations of the Fourth Amendment.
An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀
