A blaring red warning signal for the rule of law; a President declaring “we’re just gonna kill people” without a trial or even a shred of due process.

Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

Trump is head of the DOJ and demanding we pay him $230 million because, though guilty, he forced DOJ to drop the case, and now he is AGAIN a pathetic, whiney VICTIM. L

Every Republican needs to speak up or be asked about this by media. The grifter is grifting.

The White House is a National Historic Landmark (designated in 1960). Normally there is an extensive review process.

Student media rules. They are lapping a lot of the spineless media orgs this year and showing how solidarity is the way.

Administrators at Indiana University baselessly fired the student media director and ordered the student paper to cease its print edition, so it'd sure be a shame if this excellent digital front page were to be widely shared today

Joni Ernst’s lifelong legacy for women serving in the military from her time in the Senate is Pete Hegseth.

Every woman denied promotion, denied a job specialty, sexually harassed, or forced out for bs reasons, owes it all to Ernst and the Republican Party.

Terrific piece, especially this part.

I see no reason why you and I won’t be next on the list, because well-resourced opposition is all but nonexistent. All this country needs is one leader of industry, just one, to tell this administration to go f—k itself. To date, not a single one of them has. Not even Disney chair Bob Iger, whose company has willingly defied MAGA persecution in years past. Iger is the most powerful man in Hollywood, and Trump still found a way to cow him anyway.

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.

There’s no excuse for political violence in America. Ever.
