Democracy is when voters pick the politicians. Fascism is when politicians pick the voters.

You're not gonna believe this.

It's actually mind-boggling that @JDVance would say Watergate would be a "10 hour story" today.
Just to review, Nixon's aides authorized a break-in of the DNC HQ to install bugging equipment--in a caper foiled by a night watchman, who called police. They then enlisted the CIA to mislead the FBI that the break-in was related to a probe of malign foreign actors.
The entire operation was paid for by a slush fund controlled by the WH.
The WH also enlisted the IRS to probe hundreds of Nixon's political enemies.
The AG, the WH COS and several other top aides all were convicted and served time for their involvement in the crimes and coverup.
Nixon was caught on his own secret tape system conspiring with them but was pardoned a month after he resigned by his successor, Gerald Ford.
That Vance thinks this would be a "10 hour story" today speaks volumes about the moral and ethical degradation of the Trump era.

The Trump administration has removed federal protections for the habitat of the endangered whooping crane.

Only 500 whooping cranes remain.

BREAKING: Alligator Alcatraz has officially closed. A lot of outlets won’t report on this, but the Miccosukee Tribe played a key role in the fight.

unpopular opinion: if we can have a minimum age to run for President (35), then we can have a maximum age to run for President.

🚨 Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna has been caught using AI to write legislation, after the phrase "Claude responded" was accidentally left in her bill's text.

Her excuse: she was only using it to "spell-check" the national defense bill.

A reminder that Democrats can nominate the most straight-laced, non-controversial, Christian seminarian and conservatives will STILL treat him like he’s a radical Commie.

SERIOUS QUESTION: You don’t find it weird that not a single billionaire wants to end world poverty ?? Doesn’t it strike you as bizarre that no one with that kind of wealth wants to be the hero who actually solves the world’s biggest problems when they literally could ?? Isn’t that suspicious ??
