Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Ghislaine Maxwell is an unrepentant child sex predator. So why would an American President even consider commuting her sentence? This would be a national disgrace.

The presidential pardon power needs to be SIGNIFICANTLY reformed and weakened. It can't be unilateral.

This is more dire than ever (Maxwell incoming, not to mention all the re-arrested J6ers Maddow just went through tonight), but it has long been true.

I’m voting no on the continuing resolution that would double healthcare premiums for 20 million Americans, kick 15 million people off Medicaid & allow 50,000 Americans to die unnecessarily every year.

Spare us the patronizing 'bless her heart' comments. It took Speaker Johnson less than 24 hours to swear in his Republican colleagues.

He’s stalling because he’s scared of his puppet master Donald Trump.

This delay isn’t about process. It’s about obstruction. #ReleaseTheFiles
