Is it too much to expect that Congress engage in rational policy making to address immigration (we need it), inflation (hello, tariffs don't help), income inequality (executive pay, taxation, shareholder rights) and executive overreach (war with Venezuela anyone?)

Another Trump outrageous political manipulation of our system of justice - commuting the sentence of this notorious fraudster, liar and fabulist. We are unhinged.

As deeply upset and disappointed I am in Biden's team for hiding his physical and mental decline, we must continue to call on those around Trump to honestly assess his diminished capacity, leaving us with the Stephen Milers of his administration in charge of our country.

Gen. Mark Milley was right, Trump is a fascist to the core. Trump's unhinged speech to generals today about "the enemy within" is just another example. We must rise.

I served with Jim Comey in th DOJ and hold him in the highest regard as a person and the best government official I have known. His indictment yesterday was the act of a tyrant President. God help us all.

Trump and his ultra right MAGAts will one day announce their goal of amending the U.S. Constitution to enshrine white nationalist beliefs, establish Christianity as state religion and eliminating individual rights - including for women and people of color. But they need 38 states and we will fight.

I'm not sure I have any friends in South Dakota, but if I do I'd like to offer my hearty thanks for sending this gem of a Nazi to all of us. Look out Chicago - where I do have friends.

How long before American oligarchs and Trump enablers realize masked ICE agents have driven key workers away or underground and demand changes. A$$holes.

How long before this felon President blames protesters and Democrats for his deportation chaos. Economic and societal upheaval is coming, not just from his random tariffs but when our hard working immigrants disappear.

Trump's oligarchs are jumping again as their lackeys in Congress strip health care from the poor to fund their tax cuts. Look what they are doing to our country.

Trump will have issued AUMF findings and invoked the act as justification for the Iran strikes. It's a stretch. No President may lawfully start an unprovoked war without Congress. More lawlessness from Donald Trump.

Democrats are about to be born again as the party of workers, strong borders, fair immigration policies (including path to citizenship), women's rights, civil rights, muscular trade policy, China containment, Russian defeat in Ukraine and support of our allies. The GOP will not recover in 25 years.

The U.S. Constitution, the rule of law and an independent judiciary are the heart of American democracy. Trump admits ignorance of the Constitution, shows contempt for rule of law - especially by his use of pardons, and blatantly attacks judges who rule against his wishes. What does that make him?
