Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.
Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Schiff: "You begin to wonder -- do they believe they have the authority by putting some groups on a list, even domestic groups, to use lethal force against them, with no trial, no due process, no nothing? The reality is we can't rule that out."

What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

It is so tiresome to hear all these commentators saying that Trump's actions are "unprecedented" or that we are in "unchartered" waters. They say so to avoid criticize the president, who deserves all the criticism he can get. /1

The Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, is meeting with a notorious sex trafficker today. Not to ensure that she pays for her many crimes, but to ensure that she lies to protect Donald Trump from his own. Law and order, y’all!

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

This is well worth your time. Charlotte correctly and beautifully articulates who Steven Colbert is and what a sadness this is.
"It’s statements like these from Mr. Colbert that have rankled many rightwing fundamentalists over the years because they can’t simply claim he’s being inaccurate or even particularly judgy."

Torres: If the bill is so popular, why are the cuts largely delayed until after the midterm election? And if the bill surgically targets fraud, waste and abuse, why is it necessary to set up a $50 billion stabilization fund for rural hospitals?

He bought Palantir stock. Trump signed the contract. Now he’s richer, and your privacy is gone.
