Never forget, we are a nation founded on ideals, but we are also a nation of bullies. No matter how many times they say it, we’ve never been a Christian nation.
It was hard to convince Americans torture is wrong as a moral principle during Bush's term, and that was with the debate about whether torture makes us safer. I'm afraid for a portion of Trump's base, that calculation matters less. Idea of torturing undocumented immigrants may even bring pleasure.

No, people are not exaggerating the significance of what's going on at Heritage. We're talking massive capital flight, in every sense of the word. It will never be the same, and it will be less powerful.

Year 1 data on congestion pricing in Manhattan…
* Vehicle traffic: -11%
* Foot traffic: +3.4%
* Storefront vacancy: -0.9%
* Pollution: -22%
* Revenue for mass transit: $548M
So YES this has been a huge success.

Trump’s 'National Security Strategy' declares the US will focus on 'cultivating resistance to Europe’s current trajectory within European nations.' That amounts to a declaration the US will promote regime change in countries that remain governed by pro-democracy parties that support the EU and NATO"

The story is insane. The acting head of cyber security, a Noem crony, repeatedly demanded to see highly classified information he didn’t need access to, and when staff set up a lie detector test as a condition to grant him access, he failed it. So DHS suspended the staffers.
Acting CISA director failed a polygraph. Career staff are now under investigation.

At least six career staff were placed on leave after DHS opened an investigation into whether they misled the agency’s acting director, Madhu Gottumukkala, into taking the test.

Clear evidence that at universities conservatives don't face higher obstacles than liberals to establish student groups + invite outside speakers.

In order for America to actually heal its divisions, we need to reckon with its two original sins: the genocide of Native Americans by the initial government structures during and after the Revolution, and the deliberate sabotage of Reconstruction by the racist remnants of the South.

Among the nominees just confirmed is Leo Brent Bozell III, a far-right activist and critic of the fight to end apartheid, who Collins just approved to be the United States AMBASSADOR TO SOUTH AFRICA.
