“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
― Theodore Roosevelt
“That tension between capitalism and democracy has brought about today’s “environment of corporate lawlessness, where we have a regime that is completely bent towards letting them ‘self-regulate,’ which we know is not really possible,” said @ProfMSinha
It's time to call the Mississippi race now. With Rankin now in, and CHS gaining a paltry 36 votes in the county with the biggest raw GOP vote advantage, there is zero path left for her. Hinds (City of Jackson) is still outstanding and won't even be needed. It's over.
Make a note: every House Republican except Massie endorsed killing fishermen in international waters, blocking qualified generals because they are women, people of color or both, fired many more, depleted our vital stores of armaments, triggered massive losses in the Middle East

She was found guilty of having sex outside marriage. Now she has been sentenced to 100 lashes with a whip. Her case serves as a reminder that a decade of so-called reforms in Saudi Arabia have their limits. @Lattif@viviannereim https://t.co/0IApLJYQKa

Predatory birds of a feather...
Again, nothing our enemies can do to us hurts as much as what Hegseth has done. Everyone around the world who wants America weak and laughable will hope Hegseth is not impeached and convicted.
My damning new report reveals that the Trump admin has failed to award approximately $133.5 million in anti-human trafficking grant funding—about 75% of what Congress appropriated for the last 2 years—forcing programs to shut down or reduce services. 1/ https://t.co/Xve7JHt6YC
This is disturbing.
Republican Congressman @RepThomasMassie just read his articles of impeachment for Pete Hegseth on the House floor.
Below he discusses the illegal strike that killed fleeing school children in Iran.
It's chilling to listen to.
BREAKING: In an amazing moment, New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill announced Shirley Emehelu as her pick for Lt. Governor.
This is the first time in state history that two women will lead New Jersey.
