The US election was not about who Americans chose. It was about how their choices were influenced by a country, Russia, that is openly at war with the US - a fact Americans refuse to accept, from the President on down

This is one of the reasons I've been light on Bluesky, when he was booted from X, he and his crew came over here. Aubrey (Kirtaner) was a big thorn in my side along with a friend of mine. He has now been indicted!

Secretary Hegseth must resign. He lied.

Now, we have new reporting about Hegseth’s wife. If the White House doesn't provide more facts, then this raises all sorts of red flags.

Raskin: "Look at how sick that is. Basically anybody who has rendered any ruling they disapprove of they think should be removed from the bench. Any lawyer who has ever represented a party adverse to them they think should be cleared out of the way. That is in naked opposition to the rule of law."

I have been hearing from people that they have been having issues accessing their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access. Please share!

This guy is destroying our economy and our democracy and there isn't a single business leader, member of the press, or politician willing to risk anything to stop it. That's what is most disgusting. He is a vile piece of crap. The passivity of the response is inexcusable

Donald Trump cannot cancel the 2026 elections. But he can make it very difficult for them to be free and fair. His executive order is aimed at doing just that.

Here is my promise: We are going to sue to stop him and we will win.

Trump pulls the Stefanik nomination. Perhaps he's been watching elections in Iowa and PA where dems are flipping ruby red districts and feared dems would re-take the House?

Noting that what Trump is doing is wrong or even illegal is tantamount to pointing out that the plane's engine is on fire. If everyone knows it, it's of no use to continue pointing it out. The question is, what are we going to do about it?

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

To anyone who is not clear: The First Amendment protected Rumeysa Ozturk when she published her op-ed. The same way it has protected me.

Rule of law means that we should be treated equally.
