The Trump administration is abusing the military justice system to target its political opponents. A despicable new low for a group that strives everyday to find the moral bottom.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

Susan Collins kept calling it a "clean" funding bill.

Meanwhile she slipped in a corrupt, reactionary and politically toxic provision that even House GOP agree stinks to high heaven.

And now that the bill's passed...and folks have caught on...she wants to distance herself?!?

Come on! #MEpolitics

Memo to Susan Collins: Maybe don't brag about being the author of the bill if you want to preserve the ability to deny involvement later on.

Also best not to leave your fingerprints all over a politically toxic provision -- so that credible media reports tell readers you slipped it in. #MEpolitics

Jon Stewart goes after Angus King starting at 15:36. #MEpolitics

"Memo to Democrats: This Is a War and Not a Moment for Peacetime Generals."

The absurd culture of the Senate has produced a Democratic caucus of wimpy pushovers, writes @ryanlcooper.com:

I'm begging you all in the media. Please read the emails for more than 2 seconds. They don't just say Trump "knew" about underage girls. THE EMAILS SAY HE PERSONALLY PARTICIPATED.

Holy smokes. The talk Angus King was scheduled to give at Colby College -- before he cancelled seemingly to avoid being confronted by protestors and other Mainers livid over his capitulation to Trump -- was to be titled, "Lessons in Leadership." tinyurl.com/9r536n44 #MEpolitics

Reminder. From two months ago. #MEpolitics

More photos (via Portland Press Herald) from Wednesday's protest in Waterville over Angus King's appeasement of Trump.

Word of the protest apparently led King to cancel his speaking engagement at Colby College. #MEpolitics

Dems need to make Chuck Schumer an example.

We had a historic voter turnout and wins in off year elections, the largest day of protest in American history giving them a mandate, and public opinion with them.

Chuck Schumer gave it away. Call and fax your senators to demand his removal.

🚨BREAKING: A civil rights organization sued the Trump administration Saturday over a new policy barring nonprofits from helping new U.S. citizens register to vote. The lawsuit calls the policy part of a “broader effort to ensure that new Americans cannot exert their democratic will on the nation.”

The Times interviewed dozens of migrant men sent to a prison in El Salvador by the Trump administration. Independent forensic analysts called the testimony credible and consistent and said the treatment met the U.N.’s definition of torture.

Judging by the shamefully opportunistic & politicizing rhetoric of some rightwingers on Twitter, & their cynical use of Charlie Kirk’s horrific murder for political point scoring, it’s almost as if Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman wasn’t murdered by a Trump-voting MAGA maniac just 12 weeks ago.
