He's defending them because he agrees with them. He knows 20-40 year olds are not "kids who made a mistake". He's playing it down because he sees nothing wrong with what they said.

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment rage at a system that’s rigged against most people.

Democrats should ignore the carping of corporate-backed Wall Street Democrats and embrace Zohran Mamdani and other young progressives as the future of the party.

The plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who responded to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was commissioned by Congress in 2022, remains in storage. Mike Johnson has refused to place it on the wall, as was intended. That "deed" speaks pretty loudly.

As a child who lived through the Cold War, I never imagined it would be the Republican Party & the Supreme Court who would undermine our democracy, our rules of law, and our Constitution.

Rural Americans are staring down a 107% spike in health insurance premiums if ACA tax credits expire. Republicans chose billionaire tax breaks over farmers, ranchers ＆ working families.

The GOP that gave us the Jan 6 terrorist attack and then pardoned the terrorists is calling the No Kings rally a pro-terrorist rally. These are despicable people.
