McConnell should put his money where his mouth is and vote down Pete Hegseth.
Mitch McConnell: “We’re in a very, very dangerous world right now, reminiscent of before world war two,” he says. “Even the slogan is the same. ‘America First.’ That was what they said in the ’30s.”

Great article from John today, about trying to balance staying informed and staying sane.
I think responsible people of empathy are suffering from information-poisoning right now.

The more we know about what's really happening in this country; the depths of our fractures, the audacity of our leaders, the less hopeful we can become.

I am sick to my stomach at the sheer jubilation over on Twitter right now that Daniel Penny got away with murdering Jordan Neely, an unhoused Black man with mental issues.

It's disgusting.

Let Robber Barrons Loot America

Amazing. David Perdue spent his entire business career getting rich by outsourcing American jobs to China. He’s no China hawk - the CCP was his business partner! These people say one thing to their sheeple then do the exact opposite of what their base believes they are doing.

The early-20th-century Peruvian strongman Óscar R. Benavides once stated a simple principle that Trump now appears to be pursuing when he said: “For my friends, everything; for my enemies, the law.” It falls now to the GOP Senators to decide whether Trump can impose this formula on the United States

“Mass deportation is just family separation by another name”
Errol Morris and I didn't know President Trump would run for re-election, much less become the President-elect of the United States when we set out to make SEPARATED. And now we're on the verge of another family separation policy, mass deportation, which is just family separation by another name.
