Where’s the CBS News town hall focused on the Democrats assassinated in Minnesota?
Bari Weiss has a CBS town hall set with Erika Kirk, widow of Charlie Kirk.

If you want to attend, you're asked a series of questions on an online form.

The first question is: “Do you consider yourself a conservative? If so, why?”

You aren’t going to believe this. But there’s an important distinction between detaining someone as a law enforcement action in an interdiction and summarily killing them.
If the US Coast Guard stops a ship in international waters and seizes their cocaine, is that a war crime? The ship has not done anything illegal. Should we prosecute the Coast Guard Captain for piracy?

Hope you are right. Trump will probably pardon him, but not the Admiral.

For one thing:
"The bill continues to discriminate against people in the U.S. lawfully, the groups said, based solely on their national origin — one of the seven protected characteristics laid out in the federal Fair Housing Act."

It’s shocking how obvious they are when setting up their scapegoats.

Sadly, if Admiral Bradley either decided to act on his own, or obeyed Hegspeth, he still bears responsibility for this illegal action. He can go down with the ship, or pull Hegspeth with him.

The American war crime committed by Pete Hegseth is a profound evil that also jeopardizes our national security. This is not a long-term strategy but a short-sighted pursuit of profit, a bet on an oligarchic utopia built on the deaths of real people.

Arrest and Impeach NOW.

Which parents are the ones who get "parental rights?" In Bellbrook-Sugarcreek School District (OH), it's those who want to ban books featuring any "sexuality content" or "gender ideology." Inside the school board's educationally-destructive new policy:

I think this may have been the most people we had from Maury County join a canvass in a while!! We had at least a dozen people go up to Franklin to help with the Day of Action yesterday. We are building a foundation for future success in TN-5 next year as well as helping win TN-7 on Tuesday.

That’s awesome - and you’re right, setting the stage for TN5 next November. Exciting to think about organizing with people who are making their bones now, myself included! This is how foundational change happens.
