Impeachment isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent.

Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...

Worst half of football this year.
Packers beat the Vikings 23-6
Just awful. McCarthy does nothing to help. Major miscalculation on offseason $ spent.
#MNVikings
#MNVikings more 2nd half negative plays than positive ones. McCarthy looking, well, more of the same. Taking 5 sacks so far
Packers w/another short field
Packers 20 Vikings 6. Score likely to get worse
#MNVikings offense & McCarthy continue to struggle & disappoint today. As a QB, just can’t take sacks by holding ball so long. D is playing well, but has to be tiring v Packer running game

#MNVikings rookies…! Special teams punt returner critical mistake, gives Packers a short field.
Packers 17 Vikings 6
Early 2nd half

McCarthy continues to show he’s pretty much a rookie. Takes a costly sack w/23 seconds to the half…Reichard nails it from 58 yards, bailing out the team. At Half:
Packers 10 #MNVikings 6

McCarthy 3 straight incompletions, results in opening #MNVikings drive, field goal. Packers march down field on Vikings defense playing soft
Packers lead early 7-3

More red meat for MAGA base. If Mamdani believes anything Trump told him in their meeting, I’d be surprised.
A reporter asks if Mamdani stands by calling Trump a fascist. Mamdani starts to give a delicate answer.

Trump (smiles, pats Mamdani's arm): "That's OK, you can just say yes. It's easier. I don't mind."

Missouri voters overturned a complete abortion ban at the ballot last year.

It is still difficult to receive reproductive care in the state because the Missouri GOP doesn't give two shits about the will or the voices of Missourians.

To put a finer point on it: An "illegal order" is one that violates their oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States.

If you think that upholding the Constitution = sedition, well...you do the math.
Them: “You don’t have to obey illegal orders.”

Him: “That’s seditious! They should be hanged!”

Definitely not beating the giving-illegal-orders allegations.

“The JAG at Southern Command specifically expressed concern that strikes against people on boats in the Caribbean Sea and the eastern Pacific Ocean…could amount to extrajudicial killings, the six sources said, and therefore legally expose service members involved in the operations.”

The lawyer at U.S. Southern Command, which oversees the operations against alleged drug-smuggling boats near Venezuela, disagreed that the strikes are legal and was overruled, according to six sources...
