Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.

Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

As the government flings itself apart, we will keep coming back to the grim reality. Trump can’t be restrained, or reasoned with, or babysat for the next four years. The only way to bring power back under the rule of law is to remove a lawless man from power.

Opinion | Some members of Congress are starting to talk about impeachment. They’re right.
It’s time to stop beating around the bush: Trump must be impeached and removed from office.

Seeing these enormous crowds gathered outside to protest Donald Trump, I am reminded of how Donald had to move his inauguration *inside* the Capitol because he was afraid (rightly) that the crowds outside would be too small.

Meiselas: Steve Witkoff, was allegedly in Moscow while he was on this group chat. Do you believe the Russians now have all of that information and potentially more?

Rice: Well, yes—the Russians have whatever Witkoff was doing or saying on his personal cell phone. The Russians undoubtedly have it.

Top intelligence committees need to begin an investigation into Pete Hegseth's epic Signal chat mishap. ASAP.

There should be televised hearings so all Americans have transparency on how such an enormous breach of national security could take place in first place.

How many Signal chats with sensitive information about military operations are ongoing within the Pentagon right now? Where else are war plans being shared with such abject disregard for our national security?

We need answers. Right now.

Navajo Marine Ira Hayes helped raise the American flag over Iwo Jima in WW2.

Today Trump had him removed from military websites because his bravery in action is considered “DEI.”

Trump never served. Ira Hayes was a hero. Agree?

What the actual *?! The White House has designated Mr. Musk’s office, the United States DOGE Service, as an entity protected from public records requests and most judicial intervention until at least 2034, by classifying its documents as presidential records.

It's a coup.
The armed individual who blocked senators from entering federal property bears the insignia of "Triple Canopy", which merged with Blackwater in 2014.

This is a mercenary paramilitary guard for Musk and his minions. *Anyone wearing this insignia should be considered extremely dangerous.*
