cAllies are not ornaments. They are force multipliers. They are how America projects power without exhausting itself. They are how we avoid fighting alone, paying alone, bleeding alone. Undermining them in a moment of global tension is not toughness—it is sabotage.

Every dictator in history has claimed that they’ll only use their powers to go after the worst of the worst.
Every dictator in history has lied.
Donald Trump is no different.

Subpoenaing the Fed chair in the middle of a political fight over interest rates is not normal. It’s intimidation. Jerome Powell says he won’t bend—but this sets a dangerous precedent for the independence that keeps inflation in check.

Jerome Powell Won’t Be Intimidated. The Institution He Leads Might Not Be So Lucky.
The Federal Reserve has been served with a grand jury subpoena tied to Chair Jerome Powell’s testimony. Powell says he will not be intimidated—but with his term nearing its end.

WHEN the opportunity to Impeach comes (or if, I guess), it can't be a standalone action against the President. In needs to be POTUS VPOTUS AG Defense State & HHS (at least) all at once as a single Article. We need a succession that moves use directly to a Dem Speaker taking the job.

"Of the people, by the people, for the people..." Keep telling yourself that. Keep reminding your friends. Call DC and your state capitol every day and speak to at least three people at each level about how it's going...
That's just to start.

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

KO'ing everyone's 401k the week they started bragging about murdering citizens in the street on camera is the behavior of people who are on actual drugs. Not metaphorically, it's the behavior of people with underlying mental illness on uppers and steroids who are starting to feel cornered.
