We need a systematic rebuke of all Trumpian ideology and policies. A return to truth, humane treatment for all, belief in American ideals and accountability. #TruthMatters

Not sure there's a clearer way to say any security guarantees the US is offering Ukraine are toilet paper than to shutdown EUCOM while offering them.

To those thinking Russia is winning in Ukraine:

Imagine if when we invaded Iraq, we were almost four years into it, only occupied 20 percent, and lost a million men.

Not a soul would call that “winning.”

Anyone still serving in the Trump Administration must reckon with the reality that, when the government has previously perpetrated egregious miscarriages of justice, history has not been forgiving to those who’ve gone along, however reluctantly. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
History’s Judgment of Those Who Go Along
Some civil servants and senior officials in the Trump Administration are experiencing bouts of conscience.

This is so fucking insane and disqualifying. Vance is a profoundly hollow man.
Folks, would you believe me if I told you JD Vance was over there railing against the immigrants as the reason for the antisemitism

Jones: Everything you hear from Tuberville is framed as a sports analogy. When you view everything that way, you’re always stuck in an us-versus-them, winners-versus-losers mentality. That’s how he operates.

But the fact that communities across Alabama are suffering is not a game.

For years we have said the Republican goal was to privatize the VA, and Project 2025 underscored that. Now, the VA is about to transfer a trillion dollars worth of VA care to the for-profit sector, and ask that it only adhere to private health care industry standards of care.

Coach Tuberville would’ve been summarily fired for tweeting what Senator Tuberville just did. It’s a real fucking problem that we demand more accountability from head coaches than elected officials.

Patel has steadily dismantled the agency’s ability to fend off espionage attacks. trib.al/u8mF3ta

Under Patel’s leadership, 23 percent of the roughly 13,000 total FBI agents have been reassigned to work on immigration enforcement, which is not historically in the bureau’s purview.

Usually, when I need an appointment at the VA, I can get one within 2 weeks. Today, I called for an appointment and the next available is in May, 2026. Firing 35K people will do that. The Trump administration hates veterans.

Every single reporter there needs to hold the line on this too.

Don't throw him a lifeline with another question if he dodges. Have each other's backs and demand he answer the question.
Just to get ahead of this: Print the post out and bring it to the next Mike Johnson presser. You already know what his move will be. There’s no excuse to not be prepared for it.
