For every one of these Executive Branch horror stories - GOP congresspeople (especially in contested districts) should be asked their position every time - often. None of this happens if the GOP doesn't continue to enable.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.
If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.

He’s so awful.
I think that somewhere along the way something in Stephen Miller got fundamentally damaged. This is neither an excuse nor a mitigating factor; the dude is genuinely fucking evil and he and everything he stands for should be fought against and stopped. But he is something beyond mere sociopathy.
Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.

The most openly racist, eugenicist monsters are running the U.S. They will use every opportunity to advance their agenda.
And as the wheels come off their regime they will only grow more brutal and obscene. These are dangerous days for us all.

This is almost word for word what xenophobes in the 1930s and 1940s said about Miller's Jewish ancestors and relatives. He's so hateful he couldn't possibly recognize that of course.

This is not real. The amount of damage Christians have done to all of humanity and the planet is legion and it never ends. And yes I know "real Christians" yada yada. Get real. Good people are good no matter what they follow. But Christianity forgives the bad ones and therefore attracts them.

Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean
TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting
Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?
TRUMP: You're just asking questions because you're a stupid person
