Ugly, dishonest, dangerous, divisive, and completely un-American. But a reminder that Christian Nationalism is a very real and growing threat to our nation.👇

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

Dangerously provoking unrest everywhere he can…. it’s clear that’s why they changed the name of the department.

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California.

Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

Monday night when you don't have civic election results in your community, it's because the provincial government led by Danielle Smith listens to a few fringe people, some who don't trust the integrity of a Scantron sheet. We're using hand counts, because they don't trust 50-year-old technology. 🗳

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment.

Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Getting the story right on the VA is crucial.

We let the Washington Post know the veteran perspective was clear: the real threat to the VA isn't from veterans, but from politicians pushing privatization.

The focus must be on strengthening the system.

Veterans groups rip Post for investigation into VA disability program

Veterans groups accused The Washington Post of overstating problems with the Department of Veterans Affairs disability compensation system and scapegoating former service members.

This administration keeps torching the Hatch Act—propaganda videos in airports, partisan emails on federal servers, even mass firings. It’s corruption with a flag pin. See something? Say something. Expose it through the whistleblower tip line.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

Mass murder is what it is. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Trump's boat strikes are killing potentially innocent civilians. They must be stopped.

There is no credible factual or legal argument that the United States is engaged in an armed conflict with any drug cartel under international law.
