America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

He’s tanking the economy, destroying our standing in the world, depriving women and LGBTQ communities of their fundamental rights, attacking the environment, disappearing legal immigrants, gutting Veteran’s benefits and Social Security. And he’s making you pay for his golf trips while he’s at it.

Attention White House:
Thou shalt not joke about how you sent an innocent father of 3 to a gulag while his autistic son smells his shirts to remember him.

Relatedly, did we ever get an explanation as to how russian state media was accidentally (???) in the oval office when trump and vance attacked zelensky?
Right-wing YouTuber Tim Pool has made it to the White House pool — someone from his “Timcast” channel will be part of today’s pool duty covering the president.
Last year, DOJ revealed Pool was receiving millions of dollars from the Russian gov. Pool says he didn’t know where it was coming from.

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam.
It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

There is no substantive difference between a government shutdown and what Republicans are already doing and intend to do in the future.
The only thing that’s changed is that the GOP can now claim to have bipartisan assent for their wave of mutilation.
