Donald Trump is deploying the military to our cities and using our servicemembers as political pawns.
Americans aren't asking for this. This is about one thing: Trump's agenda of fear and chaos.
Trump's authoritarian power grab must stop.

He’s wanted to declare martial law from day one.
Bypass all checks and rule as a tyrant.
Many have speculated how he’d do it.
Now his gambit is clear.
DC was a test.
He’s using manufactured crime stats to send troops into blue states & cities.
This is not a drill.
Democracy is at defcon 1.

After attending the abomination of the gathering of generals and admirals and being forced to listen to Hegseth and Trump speak their anti American bullshit. Vice Chief of Staff General Bossiere has submitted his resignation. I feel for these generals and admirals. Trump is destroying America .

The July 4 Texas flooding ripped our Kerr County home from its pillars, pulling us into the water and into the night. Then morning came.

In Trump's dealings with Russia in both of his terms , it's apparent that he is a traitor and supports Russian interests over America. His dismantling of USAID and his treatment of Ukraine lay this bare.

Trump has installed a regime that is bringing fascism into the body of American politics.
Correct. This is a President of the United States declaring himself a dictator.
And instead of Americans understanding that we’re now under imminent threat of martial law and tyranny, we’ll get a month of think pieces about what the President of the United States meant by his UNAMBIGUOUS statement.

Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Ban Crumbles
Trump claims the 14th Amendment wasn’t for immigrants’ kids, ignoring its text: “All persons born” in the U.S. A fourth federal judge just blocked him. If the Founding Fathers are “spinning in their graves,” it’s because he’s rewriting history—and losing.
