Ex-National Guard Major General William Enyart: “This deployment of the National Guard into the cities of America is a misuse of a vital national resource. We are not trained to be law enforcement agencies.”

These two things are true:
1) Shooting National Guard members is horrific and criminal.
2) So is putting National Guard members in harm’s way to score political points.

Wow. BBC journalists are now not even allowed to report the censored line from my Reith Lecture, that Trump is “the most openly corrupt president in American history.”

You can hear how carefully they’re forced to tiptoe around it. So chilling...

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?

TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

By the way, note that the description of Biden as being "in obvious mental decline" was left in the speech, while the description of Trump as the "most openly corrupt president in American history" was removed:
Note that the BBC openly admits in an email to me that the removal of this claim about Trump's world-historical corruption was done "on legal advice."

Translation: Trump's threat of a lawsuit, no matter how bogus, has now been rewarded.

In 2022, Donald Trump sued me and others associated with the Clinton campaign for RICO. We did not cave. We fought. First, we won in a Florida trial court. Today, we won in the 11th Circuit.

To the law firms, media corps and billionaires who bow down: Learn a lesson. Have some dignity and fight.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies

2. Continue building union power

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

TODAY: There's a federal court hearing on the Trump IRS's unlawful attempt to allow religious orgs to engage in partisan politics. Our amicus brief warns this could open the floodgates to super dark money groups that pump secret money into elections—and even give anonymous donors tax breaks for it.

NEW op-ed by my @campaignlegal.org colleague Kedric Payne calling for a congressional stock trading ban. We cannot hope to increase public trust in government if our elected officials in Congress are allowed to leverage their positions of power for personal gain. pro.stateaffairs.com/la/politics/...
Opinion: Lawmakers should pass congressional stock trading ban
Congressional stock trading is eroding public trust. Bipartisan legislation aims to prevent lawmakers from profiting from their positions.
