Our country is the globe, our home earth. We r transient care takers who share a planet. There's no room 4 haters & only 1 race, the human race. Out of 1 many.
BREAKING: In a stunning moment, renowned journalist Scott Pelley just highlighted how Donald Trump is working to stifle free speech in America, and how he plans on fighting back. This is huge.
My colleagues across the aisle just called our fight to protect Social Security “garbage.” I’m sorry—WHAT!?!?
Our seniors, veterans, children, and people with disabilities are not “garbage.” And, neither is our fight to protect the programs we depend on.
We don’t work for billionaires. We work for the people. And, we will continue to fight like hell for them.
Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
—Harry Truman, 1952
BREAKING: MAGA Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gets crushing news as the Pentagon Inspector General expands his investigation into SignalGate — probing a second group chat that Hegseth created with his wife, brother, and lawyer.
Trump was desperately hoping this scandal would fizzle out but instead it's exploding...
According to the Wall Street Journal, which spoke to a a congressional aide and a source "familiar with the inquiry," Inspector General Steven Stebbins is investigating the second Signal chat, which Hegseth created before he took office. It remained active after he was sworn in.
"The Pentagon inspector general is focused, in part, on who took information from a government system for highly-classified information and put it into Hegseth’s commercial Signal app, the person familiar with the inquiry said," the Journal writes.
The probe was kicked off by the outrage caused when it was revealed that Hegseth and other top Trump officials had shared sensitive details about an attack on the Houthis in Yemen. The chat was so unsecured in fact, that then-National Security Adviser Mike Waltz accidentally added the Editor-in-Chief of The Atlantic to the conversation.
Stebbins announced the investigation last month but until now it wasn't clear that he is also looking into the group chat with Hegseth's wife, brother, and personal attorney.
There is, of course, no excuse for this kind of reckless behavior. Hegseth is utterly unqualified for this job. He's a former Fox News host and an alleged alcoholic. The only reason he has this job is because Trump saw him on TV and thought he looked the part.
Until Hegseth is fired or resigns, America is not safe.

Terminated January 6th case prosecutor: At the end of the night, 15 Assistant U.S. Attorneys had been fired.
My termination letter said it was for prosecuting January 6th cases.
“U.S. Attorneys represent the United States of America, not the President.”
The GOP budget has $0 for FEMA’s emergency management funding, yet provides $300M to pay for Trump’s golf trips.
Extreme weather doesn’t discriminate between red and blue districts.
The GOP is choosing Trump’s golf over the safety and security of their constituents.
BREAKING: Massive anti-Trump protest taking place outside the US Capitol building.
I certainly don’t remember Americans protesting Biden’s presidency like this. Crowd size matters, right?
John Bolton on Tulsi Gabbard: "I thought it was the worst cabinet-level appointment in history until I heard about the Matt Gaetz appointment…2 people who are totally unqualified…I think the vote should be a 100 to nothing against both of them”
Trump's nomination of Gaetz will be the clearest signal yet of whether GOP senators are ready to do his bidding on all sorts of issues.
If Trump can get 51 votes for Gaetz, he can get a Senate majority for just about anything — like cutting back Social Security.
Be warned.
I better not ever hear another word from a Trump supporter about DEI, affirmative action, or meritocracy after Trump picked the most unqualified and unserious people to join his cabinet.
Durbin: The timing of Mr. Gaetz's resignation from the house raises serious questions about the contents of the house ethics committee report. We cannot allow this information from a bipartisan investigation to be hidden from the American people.
Attention Senate Democrats:
Practice these words, first at home, and then in front of a TV camera:
“Release the Gaetz report. The American people have a right to know all about the underage desires of Trump’s attorney general nominee, our very own Pensacola Prince Andrew.”
This is good. Gov. Gavin Newsom in DC and just said how he wants California to be “aggressively proactive & not reactive to the incoming Trump administration” and that he is solely focused on delivering on policy. Real leadership here from Gov. Newsom.
