Here are just two of the victim impact statements in the David Gentile sentencing memo.

We need to find a way to start talking about the victim impact of Trump's crime endorsement wave.

Ah yes… nothing says banana republic in a smoking jacket like a convicted sheriff peddling badges for bribes—and then getting a golden get-out-of-jail-free card from the same man who once sold steaks and universities like snake oil.

First, the story about Hegseth allegedly committing war crimes has been going on for days

Second, if a Speaker of the House isn't up to date on current news, he isn't fit to serve. Even if Mike Johnson he didn't see it himself-highly unlikely-a staffer would've told him

So third, Johnson is lying
RAJU: If defenseless survivors were killed, would that constitute a violation of the laws of war?

MIKE JOHNSON: I'm not going to prejudge any of that. I was pretty busy yesterday. I didn't follow a lot of the news.

So many reasons to protest against this Administration's deadly and unlawful actions, fueling the #AIDS pandemic.

Grateful for the power of activism. #WorldAIDSDay #WAD2025 healthgap.org/press/world-...

PSA: Andrew Solender pays Axios' bills by ragebaiting all of you.

And it works every fucking time, too.
For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.

If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections.

Jeffries says not to expect Democrats to pursue Hegseth impeachment over boat strikes
"Republicans will never allow articles of impeachment to be brought to the floor," he said.

Seizing the Initiative against Russia: Putting the United States in Control (1/6)

The US should adapt a ‘no sanctuary’ policy when it comes to Russia’ war machine. The Kremlin’s strategic assets — key to Russia’s war — enjoy sanctuaries in the shadow of the West’s reactive posture.

A police stop is enough to make someone less likely to vote, recent research has found. "Voting is a reflection of our belief that we’re part of the system, that our voice matters."
A Police Stop Is Enough to Make Someone Less Likely to Vote
New research shows how the communities that are most heavily policed are pushed away from politics and from having a say in changing policy.
