Did you ask him if his job was under threat if he failed to follow an illegal order? Did you ask him if he knows killing the shipwrecked is an illegal order? Did you ask him if he was promised clemency if he took the fall? What did he say? TELL US. Stop dancing around these questions.
BRENNAN: Do you have confidence in Admiral Bradley?

HIMES: What it raises is what happens when an apparently good man like Admiral Bradley is placed in a context where he knows that if he countermands an order he's uncomfortable with it's very likely he'll be fired

The Inflation Reduction Act allocated $1.55 billion to mitigating methane pollution from fossil fuel infrastructure. Does anyone know how much of that money went out, where it went, or how much avoided methane pollution taxpayers got as a return on that investment? Surprisingly little info online.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara told his officers that they have a duty to intervene if they see ICE committing crimes and will be fired if they don't. We need more of this.

Geeze. Hope no one visits on Trump's B-day.
Trump is just the worst! The National Park Service is reshuffling its free-admission schedule so that visitors get in free on Donald Trump’s birthday next year, while Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth (previously free days) will now require regular entrance fees.
National Parks are now free on Trump's birthday, but not on MLK Jr. Day or Juneteenth
The Trump administration overhauled the list of free National Park days for 2026.

“.. Federal data shows corporate investment levels are roughly in line with last year, with companies on track to invest over $5 trillion in 2025. The $20 trillion surge Mr. Trump has claimed does not appear in the available data.”

Trump has issued over 2,000 pardons and commutations this year, letting a string of drug dealers, corrupt politicians, and MAGA-friendly businessmen off the hook in a gross abuse of the Constitution.

This is torture, and the ones doing this need to be held accountable.
Florida's Alligator Alcatraz detains migrants in a tiny outdoor cage, chaining them down amid blistering heat and bugs for hours, per Amnesty's damning report deeming it outright torture. #HumanRights

It happened again: The Trump administration has admitted illegally deporting a man to Guatemala despite an immigration judge's order that he was likely to be tortured there.

RFK Jr. is a completely unqualified conspiracy theorist who is putting newborn babies at risk.

The reckless decision to end a proven vaccine recommendation has no scientific basis.

This guy has got to go.

There is no legitimate reason not to release the complete Sep. 2 video.

They released video of the first strike. What national security justification could there be for releasing video of the first part of the action but not the second? They wanted to cover up what happened after the first strike.
